Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Replace Text Based On Pattern Post 302362871 by Franklin52 on Sunday 18th of October 2009 10:33:46 AM

You just want to replace "style0002" with "style0003" within the styleURL tag and the 4 numbers after the 7th position of the name tag, right?

Try something like this, I've used awk variables for the values, adjust them for your own fit:

Code:
awk -v old="style0002" -v new="style0003" -v num="1234" '
/\<styleURL\>/ && $0 ~ old {
  sub(old, new)
  print
  getline
  print substr($0, 1,13) num substr($0, 18)
  next
}1' file
