My workplace uses Homesite for all of our scripting needs. I
am trying to develop a macro that searches for all instances of
special characters, and replaces them with their corresponding HTML
character entities. (like replacing & with &). This can
be a tedious task when entering in a lot of customer-based content,
because any piece of non-standard code will break the page it's on.
However, in Homesite 5, the Search and Replace feature is
broken when recording macros. Does anybody know a work-around for
this? I tried editing the macro script manually, but judging form
the error messages it seems that the macro doesn't even recognize
the Search/Replace command (I believe cmdSearchReplace). If anybody
has come up with a work-around for recording this feature in a
macro I would be VERY appreciative, as it would save me literally
hours. Thanks!
