I'm trying to answer the question asked by a client of mine: can you tell me how many words there are on my web site?
Sure, I said, I'll just ask BBEdit to tell me. But I suspected my all- time favourite app was inflating the count a little, so to find out I copied the text of one page of the site, as presented in a browser, into a new BBE doc, counted it there and found it had 2159 words. However, BBE reports the actual HTML file has 2970 words, so obviously the count function is NOT ignoring the code.
Is there maybe a Pref somewhere I've missed? If not, can someone suggest a better way to get a word count of all the pages on a rather large site? I know how many words (419) there are in the metadata and navigation stuff at the top of every page, so I can manually subtract that, but even doing so I still get a higher count than I should -- by almost 20%.
