Hi there, I know that there was some shortcut in DW to replace same words/classes. When I highlight some word then DW make all same words underline. Can't find the shortcut that edit them in live time. Not "ctrl+h" there was something else...

Another option, if things aren't as nice and lined up as you have showing now, would be to highlight the class, so multiple copies of the class become underlined, then hit Ctrl + Shift + F3 to select all of them. You can then replace every copy at once, no matter where they appear.

For multi-line editing, use ALT key to highlight the class name "text". 

Then type a new class name called spin.

Results of multi-line editing.

It selects all copies of the underlined bit of code in the document and will replace them with whatever you type.
