how do I change codes for all my html files?

9 replies
Hi,
I am searching for a software that does a "mass change" or "multiple change" for all html files of my website. The change is done within html code
for example:
say I have 100 html files and I wanna change a link (which is written inside each of these html files) from
www (dot) rrr (dot) com to www (dot) hhhh (dot) com

Any clues would be highly appreciated.

Thanks

    Notepad, Find and Replace. Or you could have a look at Nirsoft's site for some free tools. You could use the searchmyfiles utility for that.

    The free version will do the job. You can open a whole bunch of files at once, and do a global replace. I wrote a blog post about this program

    If you have dreamweaver it can do it as well. control+f

    A few more options than in the notetab option, plus a record of the changes in the preferences area at the bottom.

      yeah dreamweaver... is a good option especially if you're going to be managing multiple sites. I've used it for years.

    Hi,

    You may use Find and Replace so that you will never have to edit all of links one by one.

    Wow, I didn't thinks there was a solution to this, I'm currently working on a site with over 200 html files, and the only thing I need to change is an extension on one of the files..

    Thanks Guys saved me alot of hassle (^-^)

    There are many free tools out there you can try and download. Go to download.cnet.com, you might something there. Like people mentioned above, if you can get a Dreamveaver, that's great, highly recommended.

    I use dreamweaver as well for this function OR....you can add a css section for info that will change often, this way it's a global change, and just one file that has to be changed. If you do a global change in a program like dreamweaver you're still going to have to upload ALL of the files, rather than using CSS where you can just change the one file.
