Hi

I wonder if there's any way to replace text in several .htm files in one step. You know that you can use the command "replace" in notepad for one single file. I wonder if you can do the same thing but for several different files at the same time.

Would be grateful if someone could help me.

axe: Welcome. I'm not sure if you mean online or offline. If you just mean in a HTML editor then a number will allow you to find and replace things and pos. across numerous pages. If that is what you want we could probably throw in a few names. If you want to do this to an online webpage you'll need server side scripting.

Hope that helps.

You can do that using MicroSoft Development Studio. (Probably not the answer you want to hear)

If your files are located locally, you can use Extended Find & Replace feature of MAX's HTML Beauty++ ME to do that...

If you use HomeSite's built-in FTP engine to access your online file system, you can find and replace across your entire live site. That's too dangerous for me, though... I wouldn't risk that if my deadline was two seconds from now. I recently did a global find and replace to change "id" to "class" on some local documents, but I checked the wrong boxes, and changed "visibility: hidden" to "visibility: hclassden"... and a bunch of "width" to "wclassdth"... scary scary stuff.
