Save and recall search patterns



You can save search patterns and reuse them later.

Save a search pattern

  1. In the Find And Replace dialog box (Edit > Find And Replace), set the parameters for the search.
  2. Click the Save Query button (the disk icon).
  3. In the dialog box that appears, navigate to the folder where you want to save queries. Then type a filename that identifies the query, and click Save.

    For example, if the search pattern involves looking for img tags with no alt attribute, you might name the query img_no_alt.dwr.

    Note: Saved queries have the filename extension .dwr. Some saved queries from older versions of Dreamweaver may have the extension .dwq.

Recall a search pattern

  2. Click the Load Query button (the folder icon).
  3. Navigate to the folder where your queries are saved. Then select a query file and click Open.
  4. Click Find Next, Find All, Replace, or Replace All to initiate the search.
