I'd like to find and replace a variable inside of a document. How can I do this? [VAR] Represents the variable:
Find: title="[VAR]"
Replace With: title="dummytext"
Text in Document I want it to affect: title="Webmaill" title="Control Panel" title="Customer Service" title="Web Hosting"
How can I do this in TextMate?
Do a find and replace, where the regular expression checkbox is selected. Then, in the find box, put: title="[^"]" and in the replace part whatever you want it to be replaced with. If you want to actually use the [VAR] part in your replacement, then do a find for: title="([^"])" and in the replacement, use $1 for wherever you want each var to show up. You'll probably also want to read this: http://macromates.com/textmate/manual/ regular_expressions#regular_expressions.
