It was the use of REGEX or regular expressions within Dreamweaver that excited me. If all the links were identical, regex wouldn't be needed. Of course there are many programs that allow this, but I was happy not to have to open another program.
I purchased a network of sites from a guy that did everything 'static', so when his sponsor changed the way they worked he got frustrated and quit basically as his links were all out of date, and fixing them was more a pain than he wanted.
All his codes were different as each link went to different sites/campaigns with that sponsor, so just doing a 'specific tag' search for a specific sponsor URL didn't work very fast.
The code above basically looks for a '<a' statement that contains something unique about all the links I was trying to replace. So basically I could ditch all those dead links in one go instead of finding and replacing each and every different style of link individually.
If you read all that, I hope I was able to clear it up abit
I think my my communication skills are lacking
