search/replace into html scripts

I am using Html scripts into my hyperpublish pages with "insert/html/within text" feature.
This is for paypal access and it contains my e-mail. Now my e-mail has changed and I have tens and tens of these scripts to be updated manually by right clicking on the icons, selecting "properties" and manually updating the e-mail address. I cannot succeed to do it with "search/search-replace" because this feature only works into plain text but not into inserted html scripts .
Have you some solution for this ?

Hum. For old editions, if these html chuncks are all identical, you may change one, then you will copy and paste the small icon that represents the HTML insertion block. This way you will change the others quite easily.
The new EWE/1site includes a better way.
Under the dialog activated by
Hypertext >Images file links archive and erase
there is a couple of HTML tabs (besides the "Alt" tab).
With a click on the Html tab, the dialog will list on the left box all the HTML insertions done within all the website pages. You click on #1, and on the edit box on the right you will see (and can edit) the HTML code #. You click on #2 and you see #2.
The same dialog, on the top right, includes a tool for speedy search/replace (Replace Global), very handy (it acts on the items/pages selected on the leftside list, that allows multiple selections, holding SHIFT or CTRL). By the way this is not available in the Trial or Lite edition.

Dear,
I just upgraded to hyperpublish current release and was able to update fast my site.
Thanks for this.
Anyhow, severe bugs remains in the new search/replace (hypertext- image file links archive and erase- html tab) feature
1) I was searching the (french) word "panier"
it could find here (10%, and with uppercase): src="w w w.paypal.com/images/view_cart.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Voir le Panier">
but not there (90% of items)
<input type="image" src="panier.gif" border="0" name="submit" width="87" height="23" alt="4 micro servos 2.5g">
2) Not capable to search/update a long string
for example:
SEARCH
src="w w w//images.paypal.com/fr_FR/i/btn/x-click-but22.gif"
REPLACE
src="panier.gif"
don't work
3) when I save hypergraph by "save all" some items come back to their old state (the state before REPLACE)
So no update ....
I have been working 15 years in software development. 30% of time was to write the C/C++, java etc... programs and 70% to test ....
Hope you can fix all this
best regards

Hi!
The replace all feature is not sensible to the length or so, because the replace is on all the occurrences of "panier" (case insensitive) on the whole text (it's not line per line, the text is seen as a unique very long string). Maybe you wrote "panier " (with a space after the word) instead of "panier" ??
Did you try with "panier." ?
I checked the code but it has nothing special. Also I repeated some tests, but they were ok.
Maybe you can copy and paste the stuff to an email to us so we can do a test with your precise strings (the forum has limits as you have seen).
As for the text not replaced, this has been corrected (and will soon be in the "production" release, I will make sure you will receive info by email). Simply your version does not correctly replace the stuff that are in the page currently being shown by the editor (the page is in edit mode so protected)... "global" should mean "global" so this has been "fixed".

I type "panier" exactly and it could not find. Same thing for others strings. This morning i opened my hypergraph again and nothing is saved. I can send you the whole hypergraph with the exact operations list I did. Give me your e-mail address for this.
Regards

Checked. It works.
Remember that with the top right button, the search/replace is performed on the *selected* items on the leftside list.
We will change its label to make it more intuitive.
We added also a search feature dialog (button with the lens on the bottom; or F3 / F4) internal to the HTML box (F3) and that can spawn on all HTML texts (F4)
