This means that the string <code>foo</code> will match <code>foo</code>, <code>Foo</code>, <code>fOo</code>, etc. <p></p> <li><strong><a name="item_Regular_Expression_Match"></a>Regular Expression Match</strong><br> If you would like the search string to be treated as a Perl regular expression, check the <a href="#item_Regular_Expression_Match"><code>Regular Expression Match</code></a>. If you are unsure what this means, you would do best to leave this box unchecked. <p></p> <li><strong><a name="item_Search_fields"></a>Search fields</strong><br> By default, search and replace operates on the <code>Title</code>, <code>Entry Body</code>, and <code>Extended Entry Body</code> fields of each entry in your weblog. You can tune the search and replace to operate on only a subset of these fields by checking and unchecking the <a href="#item_Search_fields"><code>Search fields</code></a> boxes. <p></p></ul> <hr size="1" color="#CCCCCC"> <span class="copyright">Copyright © 2001-2004 Six Apart.
