Need help appending html code to many html files.

[Tom]

Hello,

Is there a tool/program that will do this?
I need to appened to the header and footer of each html page on my
site. There are hundreds of html files. This would take forever to
do manually.

TIA!

First, take a short trip to Google and look up "server side includes"
Or, if your host supports PHP, go to http://www.php.net and look up the
"include" function.

Make your header & footer files and then use your favorite web authoring
tool to do a "find & replace" on the stuff you want replaced.

GoLive can do this using a global "Find and Replace".

Here's a batch file to do it:

@echo off
rem
rem topntail.bat
rem
md done
for %%i in (*.html) do copy top.txt+%%i+tail.txt done\%%i

@echo off
rem
rem topntail.bat
rem
md done
for %%i in (*.html) do copy top.txt+%%i+tail.txt done\%%i

That would produce invalid html unless </body> and </html> are omitted
from the html file. It could also only be used once, which rather
defeats the purpose.

best way is as other have said... use some kind of server side thing,
but should that not be an option for you, maybe this may help....

I have never used it, but it looks like it is what you are talking
about.
Other wise, awk (or gawk) can do the business for you too.

I like using NoteTab Light (its free), it has a search & replace with the
option to go through every page (opens each file as tabs) , i use it to go
through hundreds of pages to add things.
