Hi,

My web site has over 100 pages containing text and I want to change some words in my meta tags.
Can anyone tell me if there is code I could use so that I could make the change in my home page and the code would reflect the changes throughout all the pages, rather than doing one page at a time as I'm doing at the present.

'scuse me if I'm not correct terminology.

Many thanks in advance.
Skyliner.

The easiest solution at this point, would be to download a program that supports find/replace over multiple files. For instance, Dreamweaver can do this.

I use a program called Multi Update. I added doctypes to my pages (1300+) and it did a great job. http://www.ksware.com/mu.html

Thanks for your replies folks. :)

schizo, I don't know much about Dreamweaver, I create pages manually but perhaps it's time for me to think about something like Dreamweaver.

Kevey, ksware looks pretty good, would save a heck of a lot of time, just the sort of thing I'm looking for.


Appreciate your quick replies.

You could use includes.

Do you have PHP and/or ASP installed?

I know the PHP version but not the ASP.

Some information about it in the PHP Manual (http://php.mirrors.ilisys.com.au/manual/en/function.include.php).

Oh gosh PHP is something I've never ventured into.
I've been learning as I go along this past couple of years with my site.
How I wish I'd learned all this when I was younger. :o

However, thanks for the link bathurst_guy.
I'll have a look and see if I can get my old brain round it. :)


Cheers,
Skyliner.

Your welcome. PHP is quite easy to learn. It helps though if you have some knowledge of another language like JavaScript, or even something like BASIC, as most things are the same (IF, FOR, SWITCH statements, variables etc etc etc)

Want a basic PHP tutorial to get you started? w3schools (http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp) is a good place to start

I'm very impressed with your keenness to help a new-comer to Webdeveloper.

Many many thanks.
