There appears to be a bug in PHPed 4.6.2 when searching and replacing across multiple files. Sometimes the found text is incorrectly highlighted, and sometimes not. See the pics below

Creating the search and replace criteria:


Found one the right way:


Found one the wrong way:


As you can see, if you let loose, and hit yes on all the questions, you will end up with the wrong result, as sometimes the finds are offset to the right by a couple of characters.

Thank you , we will take a look shortly

Please submit source file and screenshot of the editor settings.

Sorry I cannot upload the source, due to company policy. However, this is not the only search term where this happened before I opened the ticket.

Note in the shot below, I turned on the option to show hidden characters. Also note that this shows the same file above where the match was found correctly, but this time around, it is incorrect:



More explanation was sent in the open support ticket related to this (yfaktor is who I have been corresponding with via email).

Thanks.

Apparently this is directly related to either "Spaces in tab" or "block indent"

If I set those two values to 4, I do not see the bug.

If I set those two values to 2, the offset of the search is different that when it is 3.

It appears the search and replace across files has a 4 hard-coded into it

thanks for the report.
problem is fixed in build 4633 (v4.6.3)
