texte = My original webdna template file has a lot of webdna comments in it. I want to remove all these comments when writing this file to a new file. My stumbling block is the grep stuff. So far I have this ...[writefile newFile.tpl][grep search=???&replace=][include file=oldfile.tpl&raw=T][/grep][/writefile]My question is this:Can someone tell me what to use in place of ??? so the grep will properly remove all the webdna contexts? I want to remove the entire context, including not only the tags but everything in between the [!] and [/!] tags.I would also like to remove the HTML comments in the same manner. If anyone can tell me how to do this as well, that will be even better.Thanks!-- Sincerely,Kenneth GromePS: My email address is kengrome@softhome.net until further notice.-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
