Delete text in between HTML tags in vim?

I know

di<

will delete in an HTML tag itself.

Is there an easy way to delete text in between two tags?

<span>How can I delete this text?</span>

Thanks!

dit will delete the text between matching XML tags. (it is for "inner tag block".)

See :h it and :h tag-blocks.

cit
ci"

Two of the best productivity enabler commands of vim.

I save a lot of time and effort with just those two.

try dt< while the cursor is on the first character to delete. In your example the 'H'.

dit - delete inner tag, remains in command mode
cit - change inner tag, changes to edit mode

di" - delete inside ""
di' - delete inside ''

di( - delete inside ()
di) - delete inside ()

di[ - delete inside []
di] - delete inside []

di{ -delete inside {}
di} - delete inside {}

di< - delete inside <>
di> - etc

swap first letter d for c, if you want to be in edit mode after typing the command
