[plug] sed - syntax problem ???

[Arie Hol]

I am learning to use sed on my Windows box (part of the Gnu Utilities 
package for Windows)

sed is fast becoming a new friend to me, but I am having some problems.

I am trying to remove some unwanted content from a collection of HTML 
files which I have archived from the web.

I am running the following three commands :

sed -ie s/onload=\"window.print()\"// *.html

sed -ie s/urchinTracker();//   *.html

sed -ie s/_uacct = "UA-288334-4";//	*.html



The first and second commands run successfully, but the third command 
returns the following error :

-e expression #1, char 8: Unterminated 's' command

I have tried 'escaping' the character at position 8 in the target string, 
but the error just comes back as :

-e expression #1, char 9: Unterminated 's' command

I have also tried several combinations of 'escaping' other characters, 
but it has made little difference, the char #: part of the error message 
just returns a different number for the position in the target string.

It makes no difference whether I run them from the command line or from 
within a batch file !!

What have I missed ?

What am I doing wrong ?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Regards Arie
