Although, this isn't really a Java question, I think I can help...

You have " symbols inside your value attribute... That doesn't work.

Try this instead:

<replace file="a/file.html"
token="<li><a href=&quote;../a/index.html&quote;>"
value="<li id=&quote;current&quote><a
href=&quote;../a/index.html&quote;>"
/>

Although, I would think it would be better to edit the file directly,
rather than at build time.
