Can't figure this dammn thing out. All I want to do is Replace an "a" with a "b". And an "/" to "/ ".Just adding a space in front.

:bonk

? Do you mean a space after the slash? In your quotes it looks like there's a space after.

Is the "a" in the middle of a word or on its own?

It's almost always best to post your xml so we can see the context. Maybe the following will help but it's hard to tell without knowing the context.

Ok ill play around with that when I get off work. Again thank you guys for all the help. This programming, if I can call it that is really fun, but absolutely maddening at the same time. Mostly because I have no idea what I'm doing lol.  :D
