ABSTRACT:
A spell check or a find and replace editing operation is implemented on a plurality of documents on a web and is initiated from a single dialog box. The user is provided the option of selecting either all documents on the web site or alternatively, specifying each of the plurality of documents on which the editing operation is applied. A summary review or list of documents is created by opening successive files on the web site and identifying those for which the selected editing operation is applicable. Once the summary review list of files is completed, the user has the option of reviewing one or more of the files on the list to control how the editing operation is completed. For example, in a spell check editing operation, a file reviewed by the user is opened to the first apparently misspelled word and the user is given the option of changing the word, ignoring it, or moving to the next apparently misspelled word, if any. This review process can selectively be deferred for one or more of the files in the list until a later time.
