yes. thank you. that was very nice of you. you are so funny

find / -type f -name *.html -exec grep -l "search_text" {} \; | perl -pi -e 's/search_text//g'

You'll have to regex escape the search_text but that's how I would do it.

If you want to make a backup of the files before changing them make it 'perl -pi.bak -e' for that part instead which will copy the chaged file and add '.bak' to the name

Make sure your file are backed up anyway before trying this obviously in case you fuck something up ;
