Batch replacer for HTML files?

15 years ago

I use PSPad (It's free) to do them locally then reupload all the changed files using filters in FileZilla and just auto-overright them.

One more vote for PSPad

EDIT. On a second thought... now you may learn the advantages of designing with css - define the bg image for your header div in the styleshseet; then you need to edit only 1 file, the stylesheet.

Third thought... If you have the same image in every html file - instead of editing the files, wouldn't be simpler to upload the new image with the same name? Just wondering...

It's a purchased template that's why I'm modifying it. And I could just leave the image with the same filename, but I'd like to get the keyword in there.

Thanks guys

I like notepad++ quite powerful, free, and there are
mac, windows and linux versions.

it does have a macro function, which may or may not
serve your purposes.

  I also highly recommend Notepad++ for this kind of operation and just general editing of HTML, CSS and PHP files.

Dreamweaver's Find and replace does this quickly, but I also vote for PSPad since you might not have Dreamweaver.

Take care,

I have been puzzled many times before. Dreamweaver find and replace or in cpanel they have a similar feature.

I would REALLY advise against this. Especially because many servers don't allow batch based websites.

I see. I am not sure if this would help but try out Eclipse. It is a really nice IDE.

Very cool.

HTML PowerTools include HTML syntax validation, link checking, spell checking, image optimization, Meta tag management, search and replace, and page date stamping for Windows Web site developers

Arrgghh...my brain is sore, I couldn't get the help files to work with the other program, but somehow got it to work. I guess banging on my computer seemed to do the trick somehow

I'll save it for the next time.

Thanks
