I'm using CoffeeCup 2010, and when I try to use the Find Look in Folders, it doesn't find anything. If I open some of the files in the folder and then use Find in open files, it finds the string (I'm searching on div, which I have lots of).
What's really confusing me is that I've used this before and it worked, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Any help would be appreciated,
Dan

Is this the HTML editor you are talking about?

This feature does work in the CC HTML Editor 2010. I have used it many times in the past. Make sure you select to include subdirectories in the search. I don't have the editor installed to check exactly what it is that has to be defined but usually there is an option to include subdirectories.

OK, I think I see what the problem is. I'm not sure I had a website project open (even though it showed the correct directory in the local disk tab). After opening the appropriate website project, it seems to work.

Nope, that wasn't it. Now it finds a string in one of the files (that's in a subdir) but not others. This is very confusing to me. Any tips on how I might try to troubleshoot this?

When I used the Editor, I never worked with projects. I only opened individual files. You are definately missing something because I know this works. I have used it to find a particular string in Zen Cart which has numerous directories and subdirectoires and thousands of files. I'm telling you there is an option to include subdirectories in the search somewhere in that search dialog.

I know about the include subdir's, and I check it. The weird thing is that it finds one of the strings in a file that is in a subdir, but not in the main dir or any of the other subdirs. If I open all the files and then search in all open documents, that works fine.
If I did a video capture and then posted that, would that help?
I'm perplexed,

No video proof is required. I believe you. But it is weird, indeed, for my searches returned results to include the main directory and all subdirectories, displaying the results in the bottom window to include the full path of the files containing the string.

Is there any way to stop CoffeCup from making a folder for itself in My Documents? I would like to keep the CoffeCup folder somewhere else. Thanks - Lee
