What I want to do is replace all instances of 'old' in a webpage with 'new' in a JS bookmarklet or a greasemonkey script. How can I do this? I suppose jQuery or other frameworks are okay, as there're hacks to include them in both bookmarklets as well as greasemonkey scripts.

Hey you could try this, problem is it searches the entire body so even attributes and such get changed.

javascript:document.body.innerHTML=document.body.innerHTML.replace( /old/g, "new" );
