Thank you - that worked !!

Hi there - thanks for the reply!

It seems to happen only with .php files
I did a search for a keyword in a bunch of .html files and it found them and I could click on the results.

Hi Folks; I had to re-install Textpad the other day and now when I search in files (php files) it always gives a list of files with *.php WARNING - Cannot Open It used to be I could click on any of the search results and it would open the file. I verified that .php is included under the HTML file ...

Thanks Andrew - that was it

Hi Folks! I have a registered version of TextPad and I'm having an issue. Whenever using search and replace I often paste the replacement data into the box. The problem is that if it's more then one line textpad always inserts a /n after each line. This /n then shows up in the pasted text :-( Am I ...

Thanks Gan - that worked well

Hi Folks; I bought TextPad years ago and I use it every day - it's great!

Holy Mackerel - I think it's gonna work

Hi Ben; My bad - I didn't notice that you had appended the \n at the end of your suggestion. I've been spending way too much time staring at the screen over the last few days so it's time for a break :-) I'll do it that way on my next logfile. It was mentioned to create a mackerel to make this ...

So in ...

Hi Berend;

Thanks - that's what it was. Once I checked off regular expression it worked like a top. Thanks guys - you made my life a lot easier

Hi talleyrand; Thanks for the reply! I tried copying and pasting the expression .*192\.168\.1\.1.* in TextPad but it says that it can't find it. I've verified that I have the right text file with the 192.168.1.1 lines in them :-) All I did was copy and paste it into the search and replace box and ...

Hi Folks;

I need to trim down an 80 meg log file so what I need to do is delete every line that contains the text:

192.168.1.1

Can anyone give me a step by step on how to automate deleting all lines that contain 192.168.1.1 ?

Thanks!

Thanks guys! The reason why I want to get rid of leading spaces is to make the file sizes as small as possible. You'd be surprised how much space in a file is taken up by dead space. What I'm doing is re-vamping my website. It was originally coded with Front Page so I'm in there trimming & editing ...

Thanks Bob - I appreciate the fast reply. I'll try it out tonight and see if it's safe to do to my HTML
