I would like to strip out the width="value" from all the <td> tags on a very long html page. The values are different, so is there any way I can use wild cards in Find and Replace or should I be looking at a different way of doing this.

I have Dreamweaver, & Homesite available, as well as notepad of course.

Thanks

You can use regular expressions in DW's search and replace window. Regular expressions in DW are similar to Perl and PHP regular expressions.

Search DW's help for "regular expressios" and it gives you a deginition and the keywords you can use, and also some related topics (like searching for tags and attributes!).

That should get you started.
