[ILUG] [OT] text replacement recursively ?

[Declan Grady]

eggsellent !
Thanks Steve. Worked a treat.
Another similar q though .. mabye its regex stuff ?

i tried to also replace the string

std_mini.html">62000   with  62000.html">62000

by doing

sed "s/std_mini.html\"\>62000/62000.html\"\>62000/" infile >outfile

but it didnt do the replacements .. I suspect the double-inverted-commas ?
Thanks again for the help.
