find and replace hyperlinks in several pages

[Guest]

I am trying to move a site to a different address. The site has 1500 pages
and to go to every page and change the hyperlinks can take forever. Is there
a way I can have Frontpage scan all pages and change the hyperlinks to a
different hyperlink. For example if the word "Fun" has a hyperlink to
http://www.itsyourworld.com and is on 50 pages. Is there a way to do a search
and replace to replace the link to http://www.fun.com without going to every
page and changing the link? I have been able to get it to do it on one page
but not more.

Thanks in advance for your assistance. Don't have a good day!!! Have a super
day instead!!!

FrontPage has a find and replace option to perform the action for the entire
site. Look for the check box on the Find & Replace dialog box.

I do use the Find & Replace and it is not working unless I am doing something
wrong. I also tried checking Find in source code. It will find it on one of
the open pages but it won't find it on the other open pages or any other page
at all. So far the only way I can do it is to copy the word fun into memory
do a search for the word fun and paste over the word fun but I have to do
that on each page.

Do you have it set to search All Pages?
and...not sure if this was available pre-FP2002

Yes. Upgrade to FP 2003. It is well worth it.

I have Frontpage 2003. I have checked to see if there was any updates. I have
the latest. I have it set to search all pages. I have also experimented with
the tags. I tried having it search inside html tag and not inside html tag as
well. I appreciate the responses to this.

If you have FP2000, then you have to go to each page. FP2002 and FP2003 have a automatic global
search and replace.

You would want to select to do the search in HTML and search for http://www.itsyourworld.com and
replace with http://www.fun.com. You would not search for "Fun".

You may also be able to use the broken hyperlink report, which will allow you make a single change
and have all links updated, however to do this with a external hyperlink that is live, you will need
to this on your local machine, with your internet connect disabled, so that the link appear broken.

The external links will be marked as "OK" or "Unknown". These can be
changed the same way as broken links, without disconnecting from the
Internet.
