What the fastest way to change text links?
 

what is the fastest way to change text link on multiple sites?

use SSI to set them up in the first place :2 cents:

are there many of the same main domains?

EX:

http://www.somethingporn.com/hardcore.htm
http://www.somethingporn.com/free_porn.htm

etc.

then just use the Edit, then Replace tool. to change "somthingporn" to "yournewdomain".

Or is there something else you wanted to do?

Sed a stream editor for linux

notepad!

get codeswitcher

its a find and replace software that will search multiple files (i.e. index.htm or *.htm ) Ive had it find and replace over 5,000 html files before without a problem.

it's priceless

#!/usr/bin/perl

good old hand editing them, its what i still do for hardlink trades :)

For local files, I like Dreamweaver's Replace tools. Pretty decent for a WYSIWYG (shudder).

Knowing that links may need to be changed on a whim or in a hurry, I use server side includes. Change one file, and all your links change just like magic.

Saves me HOURS of editing.

Jere.
