Using Regular Expressions with Dreamweaver’s Find and Replace
September 11th, 2009 | No Comments | HTML
Having had the pleasureable task of cleaning up code, I’ve found using regular expressions with Dreamweaver’s Find and Replace tool to be a lifesaver.

I recently had a project where I needed a way to show/hide content within a div similar to the SlideToggle() effect. The only difference was that I wanted to show part of the content within the div when the page loaded. Inspired by Chris Pollock , here’s what I came up with.
