Search/Replace for editor in HTML-mode

Question

Is there a way to do a Search and Replace from the editor in HTML-mode?
Plugins I found work in the visual editor, we are working only in HTML-mode, therefore -not- appropriate for what we do.
I would appreciate to find a code snippet or plugin for HTML-mode (did I miss the one you found?)

Thanks in advance for time and effort.

Answer 1

Why don't you add a custom button with the functionality you require? You could attach a JavaScript method to do the search and replace as requested?

Hope this helps...

Plugins like "Better search and Replace" will also allow you to search and replace HTML snippets very effectively. For example I wanted to remove the html chunk <a name="more"></a> and replace it <br /> and the plugin executed it very efficiently...
