    Hi there. Does anybody know of a wep page editor which can edit certain strings in a group of pages. For example I have around a 100 pages, and I would like to change the adsense code for all of them ... is this possible ?

    No I don`t know how to use unix. I was thinking of downloading the pages, editing them and re-uploading ... Is there a web page editor which could help me with the task ?

    If the adsense code is the same on more than one page, then you could use Dreamweaver to search-and-replace within multiple files at once. You will have to select the directory where the files are located and set the search / replace strings. On the long run I'd suggest converting your static pages into a CMS - easier to manage and will save you a bunch of time in the future.

    Yup - Dreamweaver has a full-site replace function. It also has a beautiful RegEx replace function... which is a gigantic time saver!

    Hello, brgdvds.
    What you need is a text-editor with a "Find a files..." feature. Most paid
    text editors have this feature. A free editor (and a good one) that also
    has it is Crimson Editor.
    If you made your pages on-line, you will have to download them to use one
    of these editors. You then make the changes and upload the pages again.
    Good luck.

    Or just learn how to use PHP Includes and save yourself 99% of your time by only having to change one file and upload one file instead of changing 100 files and uploading 100 files...

    I am surprised no one else has suggested this yet!
