Find and Replace

TiZakit · 25-May-05, 08:50 AM

Ok, so I have a rather large find and replace problem.
I need to replace

HTML Code:

 <img border="0" src="bhs/images/image100.gif" width="121" height="88">

with just

HTML Code:

 <img src="bhs/images/image100.gif">

Now, it would be simple...
But the width and height in the find part varies.

So, how do I insert wildcards?
I have frontpage, but I can download any other programs you guys might have in mind (free or shareware or trial)

-Thanks

You could copy and paste the source code into Word. Then hit "Ctrl-H" to do a find-and-replace. If you don't see the "Use wildcards" checkbox, click the "More >>" button at the bottom. Make sure that checkbox is selected, then use one of the available wildcards.

Be careful when you paste the code back into FrontPage -- if you switch to Normal View, it may automatically re-insert the width and height attributes.

Exactly what I was gonna say.

When slicing images with Photoshop, then turning them into Web images (which renders a 'layout' to your slices) I hate how Photoshop uses uppercase variables (I usually lowercase most of my variables). I always use the Find and Replace option with GoLive. If you're going to be doing Web work, I'd suggest moving to GoLive. I've been using it for about a year now and it really is a necessary tool for any Web designer.

Although, FunkyFresh hit the nail right on the head, as usual.

Thanks, but it occurs once. On each of about 50-60 pages. So the word thing would be slower than me just searching for the code.
