Please help before buying...problem with r/n
Posted: Thu Aug 31, 2006 6:40 pm
I'm thinking of buying this, but I can't seem to get an important function for me working.
I want to find all instances of:
MySpace
{bunch of blank spaces} </a>
that is....all instances of the term "MySpace" followed by a carriage return and then some white space and then a "</a>"
I use the batch replace function and use the criteria:
MySpace \r\n </a>
And I get zero matches.
But if I use:
MySpace \r\n
I get dozens of matches. The problem is I dont want to simply find instances of "MySpace \r\n". I only want instances of "MySpace \r\n" where the next line has some blank spaces and ends with an </a> How do I do a search for the two lines:
MySpace
{blank space} </a>
Thanks!
