Match Whole Word

Limits the search to text that matches one or more complete words.

Note: Using this option is equivalent to doing a regular-expression search for a search string that starts and ends with
\b, the word-boundary regular expression.

Use Regular Expressions

Causes certain characters and short strings (such as ?, *, \w, and \b) in your search string

to be interpreted as regular expression operators. For example, a search for the b\w*\b dog will match both the black
dog and the barking dog.

Note: If you are working in Code view and make changes to your document, and try to find and replace anything other
than source code, a dialog box appears letting you know that Dreamweaver is synchronizing the two views before doing
the search.

To search without replacing, click Find Next or Find All:

Find Next

Jumps to and selects the next occurrence of the search text or tags in the current document. If there are

no more instances of the tag in the current document, Dreamweaver proceeds to the next document, if you are
searching in more than one document.

Find All

Opens the Search panel in the Results panel group. If you are searching a single document, Find All displays

all occurrences of the search text or tags, with some surrounding context. If you are searching a directory or site,
Find All displays a list of documents that contain the tag.

7

To replace found text or tags, click Replace or Replace All.

8

When you’re finished, click Close.

Search again without displaying the Find And Replace dialog box

Press F3 (Windows) or Command+G (Macintosh).
