 * I’m getting an error when I run your plugin. I click the “Replace” button because
   I want to review each replacement individually. But when I click on the “replace”
   link by each individual change, I just get a javascript error: “Uncaught ReferenceError:
   regex_replace is not defined”
 * As best I can tell, the regex_replace function is not defined anywhere. Please
   help. I get this error in both Chrome and Safari.

 * I’ve poked around in the repository a bit and as far as that’s concerned the 
   code that would be responsible for this has _never_ existed, from what I can 
   see. The inline search/replace function is also mysteriously missing.
 * The [documentation page](http://urbangiraffe.com/plugins/search-regex/) references
   a version of the plugin(1.4.11) that’s not actually tagged in the repository,
   so maybe the dev decided to yank the features or something and didn’t entirely
   clean up.
