Regular Expression to replace part of URL in XML file
- by Richie086
I need a regular expression in Notepad++ to search/replace a string. My document (xml) has serveral thousand lines that look similar to this:
<Url Source="Output/username/project/Content/Volume1VolumeName/TopicFileName.htm" />
I need to replace everything starting from Volume1 to .htm" / to replaced with X's or some other character to mask the actual file names in this file.
So the resulting string would look like this after the search/replace was performed:
<Url Source="Output/username/project/Content/Volume1XxxxxxXxxx/XxxxxXxxxXxxx.htm" />
I am working with confidential information that I cannot release to people outside of my company, but i need to send an example log file to a 3rd party for troubleshooting purposes.
FYI the X's do not need to follow the upper/lower case after the replacement, i was just using different case X's for the hell of it :)
