Problems with find and replace

The search and replace feature doesn't seem to work
To do the test I copy the code in a php doc and paste it into the find and replace article and click on search all (his game as "active document" and "source code".
The result is saying 'finished. not found in the current document. It's disconcerting, as I've used it before and its worked
Ive tried to reload everything and still no luck.
I really want to get this work I need to replace pieces of code at least a hundred pages and hard to change it in one fell swoop doesn't have to do it manually
all the best Graham

Make sure regular expressions use are not checked.

  • Find and replace it with an invalid Code in Dreamweaver CC 2015

    I have a HTML file of 800 line with about 200 H3 tags not closed I want to remove. I try to use search / replace, but it doesn't seem to be able to find non closed tags.

    In the excerpt below, I want to remove or delete the H3 tag:

    < /ul >

    < /li >

    < h3 class = "best_SubCategory_Title" id = "455474Title" >

    Best sedan

    < ul class = "ssMatchup_Entries" id = "Matchup455474Entries" >

    < /Li > < li > agreement

    Camry < li > < /li >

    Mazda 6 < /li > < li >

    Passat < li > < /li >

    < /ul >

    I tried different ways, but Dreamweaver search / replace engine can't not find invalid or cavities not blocked tags?

    Here are a few things that I tried, and as you can see, Dreamweaver cannot find the H3 tag:

    If I close it manually one of the H3 tags, and then find and replace can find. I think I can use regular expressions to do this, but I need to understand this too, if that's the only way.

    What do you think? Any idea on how to get rid of 200 H3 tags not closed? Perhaps another application?

    Answered my own question, here is the solution:

    For some reason, Dreamweaver cannot find and replace invalid code, or at least it is not easy to do. My problem was that I had a H3 tag not closed and would not replace it. I had to first close the H3 tag, and then I could replace it.

    I did a find and replace the one sought a ">" followed by a lot of white space, like this:

    As my license to close the H3 tag, then I could easily find and replace all now closed H3 tags, like this:

  • Strange problem with find/replace

    I'll have a little strange problem with find/change in InDesign CS4 Mac.

    The document is a data merge.  In the worksheet, there are two fields that contain either a '@' or a '&', depending on the context.  These are just placeholders - the plan was to convert glyphs of the police 'Wingdings 2' after creating the merged document.  We do it this way because we couldn't figure out how to get the glyphs themselves in the .csv file.  Two glyphs are < FO54 > and < FO56 >.

    First I used find/replace to change all the '@' symbols to < FO54 >.  That has worked well. But then when I tried to change the symbols "&" < FO56 >, I got the < FO54 > again instead.  In fact, now I ask what glyph, I get < FO54 >.  Find/replace always normally works for normal text... it of just that he seems to have decided that if I ask a glyph, I get < FO54 >, anything.

    I tried to shut down and restart, but the bug is still there.

    Any thoughts?

    I used the tabs of glyphs in find/replace when I tested it, but what you describe seems to work as well.

  • Find and replace text with formatted text.

    I am trying to replace the text ' ^ 2 ' with '2' on photoshop by a search and replace, because there are many cases that on my image, but I can't seem to access any feature in photoshop which can do a search and replace for anything other than simple text. Is there a css solution, or a plugin that would allow me to do this? I have not sought on anything either on google search, although I will update this thread if I find something

    Google found this discussion Forums Adobe with different versions of the script.  I don't know exactly what made the script, but maybe it would work.  You probably want to make a backup of your documents before you run it:

  • The powerful ' find and replace ' features are missing pages

    It would be good if the development team of Pages read the questions and the problems posted on the apple Support communities.

    Find and replace invisible characters (tabs, returns, etc.) have disappeared in the Pages for older versions.

    Other researchers suggest that the functions are in the NON Apple software. Duh. TextEdit not more and not pages. Disappointing, can not describe the feeling.

    The new Apple:

    "He Just (not!). Work' and 'where's the Hell... ».

    There is that one thing I use 5 Pages for: drawing, which can be fun in its limits. As a designer, I like he is aligned with the alignment that makes things very fast for me. Unfortunately, other sucks.

    Pages ' 09 is pretty horrible at drawing but great for the layout and productivity. The contrast between the two is remarkable, when I switch between them. If only I could have 5 Pages, in Pages ' 09 drawing tools, I could happily mix 5 Pages completely and be totally unaware of anything that does not work or works so badly she may as well not exist.

    2016 is coming with the editor of affinity, I hope it turns out as well as the designer of the affinity and Photo of affinity, but doubt that it will be the combination of WP, PAO and spreadsheet that makes Pages ' 09 so awesome to work with.

  • Find and replace variables

    Hello world

    Setup

    I have a line that connects two cycles in two different VI.

    The vi share the queue by a reference.

    Now that I changed the format of the queue of the enum element to a cluster of enum and date

    my queue reference has changed as well.

    Question

    How to replace (rebind) all variable instances of variables of refnum "old_queue" with "new_queue" refnum queue queued?

    What I tried

    I tried to use 'Find and replace' but it doesn't let me do: in text mode, it displays an icon crossed close to all

    He found bodies, and in graphic mode, that is not has such an option, as substitute a variable refnum.

    First: a lesson for next time. Check the data type of the queue a typedef. Now, the problem goes away. Change the typedef and all references.

    Lesson for next time bonus do not transmit queue around references. It is not necessary. Queues can be appointed. For another reference to the same queue, all what you need to know is its name.

    To answer your basic question, you can't. You'll just have to follow the wires around and replace them manually.

    keimanzero,

    Comcast of Norton Security Suite version is installed? If Yes, who and perhaps malware is most likely to cause questions you have published, in particular the failure of the restoration of the system.
    First, configure the system to boot - How to solve a problem by performing a boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
    NOTE: Start-up mode minimum state all the 3rd party firewalls will be disabled. Open Control Panel > Windows Firewall to make sure that the native firewall of Windows 7 is now on.

    Download and Save the update system (or CheckSUR) tool. You will need to download the specific Version of CheckSUR corresponding to the architecture of the system to Windows 7. If you do not know the architecture of the system, and then click the link that says "Click here to show or hide the instructions step by step with images" under method 2: download the update directly system preparation tool from Microsoft Download Center .
    Description of the preparation tool system update for Windows Vista for Windows Server 2008, for Windows 7 and for Windows Server 2008 R2

    Once the download is complete, close all open programs and browsers. Now, run CheckSUR with the system connected to the internet because it will download the .cab for system files. Reboot once CheckSUR is complete.

    Secondly, I suggest that you run the File Checker system while in the same clean boot state.
    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the field search programs and files .
    2. Right click on cmd.exe in the programs of list, and then choose 'run as administrator '.
      If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
    3. At the command prompt, enter the following line exactly as written including the space between thec and the/and then press ENTER:
      sfc/scannow

    When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problems facing the system have been resolved.

    If they are not, you will need to contact Norton support for the version of Norton Internet Security Comcast to get help, or just uninstall NIS, run the Norton removal tool (right click Norton_Removal_Tool.exe, choose "Run as Administrator"), reboot and then check to see if the problems are still occurring.

  • Find and replace function in file names?

    Is it possible to do a find and replace in the names of files, rather than the office or similar?  I have a large list of names of files that all have a problem with them I want to replace, but I don't want to pass by and do each manually!  A better way to do it?

    Hello exoticdisease,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    Select the files in Windows Explorer, press and hold Shift and right click on them. Choose copy from the menu in the path. Paste the list in any editor you prefer. You get the full path for each file, but a simple find/replace will clean up if necessary.

  • Track changes by using find and replace

    I use Acrobat DC.  When you perform a find and replace function, is it possible to change? Thank you

    If that's the standard in the world of practice then the people in this world don't know what they're doing, I'm afraid.

    You should never modify a PDF file directly, unless it is the only possible option. You should always go to the original file format, edit it and then generate a new PDF from it. Do it directly in the PDF application problems. Even changing a single letter can cause serious problems with the layout of the file.

    You can convert PDF to Word using Acrobat, but it will never be perfect. The two formats are very different from each other.

    The quality of the result will depend on how the file was created originally. More consistent, it's the standard PDF better will be the result. The general rule 'Garbage In, Garbage Out' applies here. If the PDF file is a mess, if the results of export it to another format will be.

  • InDesign, find and replace

    Hi, can anyone help with this problem, I have tried searching online a few times, but no luck.

    I have a paragraph with several capital letters in square brackets, for example: AAAAA (1) or (2) BBBB. If I need a "BOLD" of each of them, I will have to look for each other and manually "BOLD".

    Is there a function in find and replace that can auto search for this kind of texts and "BOLD" of all?

    Or GREP functions?

  • Find and replace text in documents invisibly

    Hello

    here in this forum I found the Russ find/replace function in ExtendScript, with which you can find and replace text. The script works perfectly when the documents are opened. In the case of invisibly open documents, that the script does not work since TextSelection is obviously applied. Refer to link:

    https://forums.Adobe.com/message/4032650#4032650

    I want to find and replace text within a structure of book, it would be useful if I could do it in documents that are not visibly open (Constants.FS_MakeVisible = false). Does anyone have an approach to find and replace in documents that are not visibly open? Or can someone confirm that this is only possible with TextSelection, which means that it does not work in documents open invisible?

    Thank you very much!

    Concerning

    Apollo102

    Apollo,

    I looked into this and I was able to reproduce the problem. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find a perfect solution. Running in the debugger, I found that the failure occurs with the Find() call. All paragraphs, the text ranges, etc. are valid... it's just that the Find() call fails to find anything.

    I found that if you turn on/off the display, all of a sudden the Find() operation works with the hidden document:

    doc. IsOnScreen = true;

    doc. IsOnScreen = false;

    I don't know if this is a practical solution and of course, you may as well open visible in the first place. Would be of no help to just disable the updates with the interface?

    App. Display = false;

    Just be sure to return true at the end of the script

    I'm sorry I couldn't find a complete solution. It might be possible to appeal to something that makes the hidden document searchable, but I did not understand it.

  • A Script to find and replace the layer names

    Is there scripts to find and replace the names of layers?

    There is an excellent script available for Photoshop that allows you not only to replace words in layer names, but also insert words as prefixes, Suffixes and sequential numbers.

    The version of the illustrator of this script allows only sequential numbering: it does not offer search and replace words.

    Ideally, it would be great if there were something that could find multiple and replaces in a go:

    (for example

    You have layers like this car, the dog, the bat

    You enter: because (Option1), dog (Option2), Bat (Option3)

    Your layers become then: option 1, option 2, Option3).

    )

    Big_SmiLe, which is a very good start! Step 1 of learning how to Script is indeed, by adjusting an existing simple script to make things more complicated. (And usually then "break something", which is also a necessary part of the process.)

    You are right your comment, it comes to repetitive things. For one or two different articles that wouldn't be a problem, but in the longer lists you are soon lost.

    As usual to work with lists of search - replace is to build a table:

    var layernames = [
    [ 'FHairBowlBoy *Hair', 'Hairboy1' ],
    [ 'FHairCurlyafroBoy *Hair', 'Hairboy2' ],
    [ 'FHairSpikyBoy *Hair', 'Hairboy3' ],
    ];
    

    The general idea is to loop through all the names, check if the current layer name is "layernames [i] [0]" (the left column) and if so, rename it "layernames [i] [1]" (the right column). If you know how to write a loop in Javascript, then you can implement this immediately.

    However...

    A more advanced method to do this didn't need even loop on all layernames - instead you can immediately 'get' the correct name by layer! It's magic! Almost!

    The trick is to use a Javascript object rather than a table. JavaScript objects are nothing special; "Layers" of Illustrator are an array of objects, and each object 'sex' has a 'name' property, which you can read and set the value. What I do here, is to create a new object, where the part 'name' is the name of the original layer and its value is the name of the new layer. All you need to check each layer is if there is a "object.originalLayerName" property and if so, assign its value to this layer name.

    It looks a bit like the table above, except that (1) you use {.} instead of [..] to create an object and (2) you add pairs "name: value" instead of 'value' only (in fact, the 'name' of a value in a table is simply her number).

    So here's what it looks like:

    // JavaScript Document
    var doc = app.activeDocument;
    // name indexed object
    var layernames = {
     'FHairBowlBoy *Hair':'Hairboy1',
     'FHairCurlyafroBoy *Hair':'Hairboy2',
     'FHairSpikyBoy *Hair':'Hairboy3'
    };
    // loop through all layers
    for (var i = 0; i < doc.layers.length; i++)
    {
     //Set up Variable to access layer name
     var currentLayer = app.activeDocument.layers[i];
     if (layernames[currentLayer.name])
     {
      currentLayer.name = layernames[currentLayer.name];
     }
    }
    

    Enjoy!

  • How can I find and replace the xml tags?

    Hi, I am using xml in my workflow and want to be able to remove some tags if they contained particular text.

    Here is an example of the xml struct...

    < Entry >

    < name > DEFAULT < / name >

    < such > default < / such >

    DEFAULT < address > < / address >

    < / Entry >

    I use this initial structure to define paragraph styles to follow when you import the xml data.

    This leaves DEFAULT in place everywhere where an entry is not any content of this field.

    I want to be able to import my XML and then run a script that deletes tags that include by DEFAULT, - I need to the xml tag to remove not only the text, if I do a normal find and replace will remove only the text not the tags that is causing problems with style. I also want to remove the end of para/return (^ p) that I placed at the end of the line. So it would be the same opening editor mode and removing content, tags + hard back in there, but I want to automate the process...

    So I think that's what I'm looking for in each case

    "< name > DEFAULT < / name > ^ p.

    and I want to replace it with nothing.

    Is this possible in a script (ideally javascript)?

    I have a little knowledge of javascript, but don't know how to search for and target this kind of string in indesign...

    using indesign cs5

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    Script should do it in two steps:

    1 find all occurrences of that is ' > by DEFAULT.<>

    2 delete the whole paragraph which is a found_text container.

    For example, in this way - JS - (a textFrame filled your text must be selected):

    var mStory = app.selection[0].parentStory;
    app.findTextPreferences =  null;
    app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = ">DEFAULT<";
    var myF = mStory.findText();
    var count = myF.length;
    while (count--)
         myF[count].paragraphs[0].remove();
