Batch Find Replace in Selected Text?

i'm on windows 10 using dw cc/

 

i want able select block of text , replace multiple characters within @ once.

 

for example: select string cat , replace c , t b , m.

 

i can in entire document following these instructions reformatting files in dreamweaver: batch series of .dwr files (find , replace) consecutively, when change setupfindreplace() searchwhat value document selectedtext , run command, first searchstring (the c in example above) changed while t isn't changed. have run command second time replace second string. here's code i'm using:

 

 

 

 // javascript document function canacceptcommand() {      return true;  }   function commandbuttons() {      return new array("go!", "doit()", "cancel", "window.close()");  }   function doit() {         dreamweaver.setupfindreplace({          searchstring: "c",          replacestring: "b",         searchwhat: "selectedtext",          searchsource: true,          useregularexpressions: false      });      dreamweaver.replaceall();            dreamweaver.setupfindreplace({          searchstring: "t",          replacestring: "m",          searchwhat: "selectedtext",          searchsource: true,          useregularexpressions: false      });      dreamweaver.replaceall();           window.close();  }  

 

thanks!

that's how "selected text" works, though.  restricts search highlighted text area , nothing more.

 

if want f&r entire document,

     find in: current document.

     search: source code

     find:     cat

     replace: bam;

                    replace all
