   If all your html files are in the same directory
try this out the following script
  
    for file in $*
    do

       sed s/compname/newcompname/g $file >          
                                 /tmp/temp.html
       mv /tmp/temp.html $file
   
    done 

 Let us say this script is named test.sh then run it
as follows : 

    sh test.sh *.html   
    
Before doing this keep a backup of your files.

Naveen.
