I often use the free EditPad text editor (Windows only - sorry Cotty!) for doing my HTML. You can do a single find-and-replace operation across all open documents - and I've had over 100 open at once on occasion. If you can't find it on the web you can download it from my web page at http://www.robertstech.com/editpad.zip Another way of getting the maintenance advantages of frame navigation without the drawbacks of frames is with the SHTML "#include virtual" technique (if your host supports SHTML). Personally, I prefer to keep the HTML simple and do global find/replace updates with EditPad or Alaire HomeSite. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
