Automatic date up-date

[Linda Absher]

If you don't mind downloading and uploading your files (and if you've got 
quite a few, this could be quite a task) you could try using HTML Grinder, a 
shareware package from Matterform Media (http://www.matterform.com/grinder/).
I must warn you, however, it does live up to its name!  Like unix, you 
have to be extradorinarly careful when specifying what you want replace, 
since it does EXACTLY that, including related HTML tags (I learned the 
hard way).   However, for the perl-impared, this might be a quick way to 
replace sections of HTML coding as a batch job.
