does anyone know of a program that you can set a directory to, and it goes through all the documents (html's) and deletes certain text you want it to? like a path to an img for example

How do you do it in Dreamweaver? Uh how about search and replace.

search and replace onth the current document, or the whole website, or an entire directory

edit/find and replace, the rest is pretty foolproof
select if you want to replace in the current document, all .htm* .asp whatever files in a given directory and sub directories, or the defined site in dw settings, choose if you want to replace plain text or source code contents. of course beware there is no undo option for this, so you better be sure about what are you going to replace.
your question was about deleting, so find= (what you want to delete) replace =(nothing), you leave that field blank.

Personally i use ultraedit, but how do you perform a search/replace in several files with notepad? dw can be as lame as you want but that search/replace feature is great, even compared to other shareware or freeware programs that do just that (search/replace).

This is like notepad on steroids. Check it out... I have no affiliation with the site but have used and loved this program for years.

WTF? A serious thread and it's NOT on page 2 yet? Is this the right board?

Rollin, I use BK Replace 'Em, you can specify entire directories to search & replace at once.
