We are using the search and replace function to replace key words on a master site to all slave sites. Our searchreplace.SITEID.php file looks like this:
<?php

// no direct access

defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');

/*

; Put below the Search/Replace expressions

;------------------------------------------

{city}=Waycross
{state}=Kentucky

*/

When I just have one field, like {city} it works great. As soon as I add two fields the string {city} is replaced with "Waycross {state}=Kentucky"

I've read the documentation and the forums and can't figure out what we're doing wrong. Any suggestions?

Thanks !

The reason was that in fact the search/replace was written in a single line and that everything was considered as a comment.
The file was not correctly transfered on the server and all the newlines were removed.

<?php // no direct access defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access'); /* ; Put below he Search/Replace expressions ;------------------------------------------{city}=Waycross{state}=Kentucky*/
