I have a Epub book in which, I know not why, the closing speech mark always presents as an exclamation mark!

I want to use Sigil to do a find and replace for the approximate 699 instances.

However, using find “!” replace with”.’” (excluding quotes) also picks up the ! in the html page headers.

Is there a way I can define the find/replace to ignore the headers?

I am fairly certain that none of the affected speeches ends with anything other than a full stop.
