This is used to strip elements, including their children, from the html file and replace them with text. The property is the element name to replace and the value is the text it is replaced by. In early versions of HM2JHelp this file was used to remove the <object> tag from files. The <object> tag is now subject to special handling and cannot be removed by the replace_elements.properties file.

At present, it is unlikely that you will need to edit this file.
