Stage 11: Find and replace

Java[tm] technology already offers generic functionality to find portions of text within a given string. This stage of SimplyHTML uses such functions to build a user interface suitable for most find and replace operations. In addition the new find and replace logic implements a way of replacing text over an arbitrary number of separate documents.

This chapter does not go into every detail of how to build respective user interface. It concentrates on aspects in conjunction with find and replace as shown in the following topics
