I need a Batch Text Replace program for files on FTP - GoFuckYourself.com

I need a program that can access all html files on FTP, and replace all occurances of xxx with yyy going through all subdirs.

I found a program but it wasn't searching subdirectories.

Any help will be appreciated.

is the stuff you already have shareware? because i'd love to try to fuck around with it even though i prolly cant fix it.

Its just.. if all you really need is your existing program to also search subdirs then it should be something that could be fixed in no time.

The one I found was called Text Workbench. 15 days free trial. But it doesn't search subdirs.

I found the solution.

I have this text editor UltraEdit which can batch text replace in local files.

I mapped the ftp as a local drive using this program called NetDrive, then used UltraEdit to do the batch replace.
