table background color removed

[Reto Knaak]

The first bgcolor="#001122" afre a link will become bgcolor="", due to this regex which is too greedy:
            # Replace links of the form "somefile.html#894" with "somefile0206.html"
            # The following will match anchors like '<a href="temp0206.html#894"' and will store the 'temp0206.html' in backreference 1.
            # The replace string will then replace it with '<a href="temp0206.html"', i.e. it will take away the '#894' part.
            # This is because the numbers after the '#' are often wrong or non-existent. It is better to link to an existing
            # chapter than to a non-existent part of an existing chapter.
            page = re.sub('(?i)<a href="([^#]*)#[^"]*"', '<a href="\\1"', page)

because it matches everything until the next #, even if it is outside the link!

How about this? Is this the way to go? .. at least it seems to work!
            page = re.sub('(?i)<a href="([^(#|")]*)#[^"]*"', '<a href="\\1"', page)

I modified the same place even more, because in my file I have links like <a href="#X1">X1</a> and so nothing of the link would be left: in my optinion, in this case I prefer to leave the link intact, as it points inside the same file!
            page = re.sub('(?i)<a href="([^#|"]+)#[^"]*"', '<a href="\\1"', page)

This is the first time I try to generate a patch... hope this is correct!

Changed one regular expression:
- added (?i) to make regex case insensitive
- search for #links stops at # and "
- * changed to + to ignore internal links "#..."
