Thanks for your help
Ok I have a scenario like this -
I have an array with
['<span>origanal html</span>' ]['<span>html to be replaced </span'>]
This array will be available to me when the page is loaded.
Now I have a HTML page (DOM or DOM container element) in which I need
to search the ['<span>origanal html</span>' ] and replace it with the
['<span>html to be
replaced </span'>].
This will apply to ANY HTML page . and "HTML to find" can be
ANYTHING like "<b>I </b> am a <i>good</i> <span class=''foo">boy </
span>"
Is there any better way to do this ? I also tried to go for traversing
dom but I was not able to do that
