yep. doing stuff like this manually is crazy when you can automate it with a shell, sed, awk, perl, python, or whatever script. perl and python even have very comprehensive libraries for easily parsing, searching, and manipulating HTML files. it takes time to write the script, of course, but it's a lot more interesting (and usefully educational) to do than repetitive manual editing work and once the script is written, it's: a) nearly instantaneous to run b) consistent and predictable in its effects c) not prone to human error, tiredness, distraction, or just plain forgetting to do something, etc craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au> BOFH excuse #21: POSIX compliance problem
