[thelist] Parsing text (ASP)

I'm trying to find a good way to search through
returned text and find all IMG SRC and HREFs, then
look within those strings and replace certain text.

So, let's say I return text that has:
"blah blah yadda <IMG SRC="coolfun.gif"> and then blah
<a href="test.asp?cool=funtest">yadda</a> because that
would be fun to do."

And I want to replace the word FUN with HAPPY so it
becomes:
"blah blah yadda <IMG SRC="coolHAPPY.gif"> and then
blah <a href="test.asp?cool=HAPPYtest">yadda</a>
becasue that would be fun to do." 

I know how to do a replace on a select string, but how
do I find these strings within a set of text like
above, then look between the tags?  

Because I wouldn't want to replace the word FUN in the
regular sentence, just in IMG SRC and HREF tags.  I'm
stumped.

Thanks in advance for any tips or suggestions!
