 class="tr_ftn">\n*

but it is taking the full next line.

I forgot how different the visual studio 2010 expressions are. You can use: 

class="tr_ftn"\>:Wh*:Cc*:Wh*

That will match class="tr_ftn">, followed by any number of spaces, then any number of the newlines, and spaces.

If that is your match then you will want to replace with:

class="tr_ftn">

For Visual Studio 2012 you would use as the match: 

class="tr_ftn">[\r\n\s]*
