Search for text in on a webpage and replace it with different text.
Allows you to search for text anywhere on the page and replace it with different text. For example, quickly correcting forms in which the wrong information has been entered multiple times. Please note the following:
1. Refresh the page or restart chrome before using.
2. Please select "Input Fields Only" if you are editing text in a text editor or form.
2. The popup will not stay open if you click elsewhere. This is a feature of Chrome.
You can search using regular expressions. For example, searching for one(one|two) will match either "oneone" or "onetwo". The match that was caught by the parentheses can then be referenced in the replace field as $1.
Text on page: onetwo
Search Term: one(one|two)
Replace Term: $1
Result: two
The result is "two" as this text was matched by the capture group (one|two).
