Thanks for the quick response, Karl. I'm not sure if this would quite do it--It looks like you can get an array of the contents of the text nodes, and you could do a .replace() on those array elements, but I'm not sure how you would then insert the new text back into the text nodes. It seems like a selector like the ones in the Selectors part of the API doc would be the ideal route. Any ideas? -Tom
