I would like to strip off the linefeeds on the JavaScript code between the <!-- and --> designators, so that the code between those designators is all on one line. As an example, my file looks like:
---------------------original code------------------------------------------
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
var EMPTY_STRING = "";
function getEmptyString()
{
return EMPTY_STRING;
};
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<FORM NAME="KTM_DATA" METHOD=POST
onReset="return confirm('Do you really want to reset the form to the stock values?')">
<BODY onLoad="document.forms.KTM_DATA.favecolor.focus()">
favorite color:
<INPUT name="favecolor"><P>
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit">
<INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset All Entries to Stock Values">
</FORM>
-----------------desired output--------------------------------------------------
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
var EMPTY_STRING = "";function etEmptyString(){ return EMPTY_STRING;};
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<FORM NAME="KTM_DATA" METHOD=POST
onReset="return confirm('Do you really want to reset the form to the stock values?')">
<BODY onLoad="document.forms.KTM_DATA.favecolor.focus()">
favorite color:
<INPUT name="favecolor"><P>
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit">
<INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset All Entries to Stock Values">
</FORM>
------------------end of output------------------------------------------------

---------------It;s close, but what I want is ----------------------------
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
var EMPTY_STRING = ""; function getEmptyString() { return EMPTY_STRING; };
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<FORM NAME="KTM_DATA" METHOD=POST
onReset="return confirm('Do you really want to reset the form to the stock values?')">
<BODY onLoad="document.forms.KTM_DATA.favecolor.focus()">
favorite color:
<INPUT name="favecolor"><P>
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit">
<INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset All Entries to Stock Values">
</FORM>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I.e., the <!-- and --> should remain on their own lines.
I've tried a bunch of different ways and can't seem to make that happen. What am I doing wrong?
