.Net Function To Replace/encode&decode HTML Characters In String?
Jul 30, 2010
I have the following code:
Dim lStatementText As String
Dim lStatementString As New System.Text.StringBuilder
lStatementString.Append(RndRes.Forms.txt_request)
lStatementString.Append(" ")
lStatementString.Append("<b><a>")
[Code]...
Where Request.ID, Request.Description and also RndRes.Forms.txt_* are all strings. I want to display the string I build up here in a Infragistics FormattedLinkLabel. The problem is that if any of the strigs from the Request class contains a HTML character, the label is not displayed properly and the HTML encoding is broken.I need to find a function that masks the HTML codes.
I am using a software that grasp information from web-sites. But I want to something on those information. For doing that, it allows me make a VB script. Actually I have never studied any Vb code. But i found a solution for my project. The data from that website is for exmp. "1.02.30" I want to change first dot into semi colon and the second dot into comma, namely "1:20,30". I found replace function and it works if i want to do "1:20:30" that. But I have to change first dot into semi colon and the second dot into comma.
I have some existing code that looks something like this:
[tag:cb cbid="12345" cbwidth="200" cbclassname="calloutbox" cbposition="left"] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. [tag:cb cbid="123" cbwidth="200" cbclass="calloutbox2" cbposition="left"] Suspendisse eleifend enim a magna pretium porttitor.
I need to write a VB .Net global function that will match these [tag:cb] and take the optional parameters and rewrite the string with Html tags.
<div id="12345" width="200" class="calloutbox" position="left">content (based on id)</div>
Using VB or C#, I am getting a string of variable length from the database. This information is sensitive information that only certain users will be able to see.I have two cases that will use the same logic (I think).scenario 1: replace all characters with xscenario 2: replace all characters with x except the last 4 characters (assume length > 4 - this check is being done).I thought that this would be easiest using Regex.Replace(input, pattern, replacestring). As opposed to a lot of string handling with substrings and forcing a length of 'x's.
Using VB.Net I'd like to be able to replace a range of characters in a string in a single line of code.
i.e. something like
Dim charsToReplace as string = "acegi" Dim stringToBeReplaced as string = "abcdefghijklmnop" charsToReplace.ToArray().ForEach(Function (c) stringTobeReplaced =
I have a long string of HTML code that contains several quotes around objects in the string. I have a Regex.Replace() function to change the "img src" tag, due to the way its stored in a database.
Here is my string: <p><strong><u><font color="#cc0099">RICH TEXT BOLD UNDERLINE. PICTURE TO APPEAR BELOW</font></u></strong></p><p><strong><u><font color="#cc0099"/></u></strong></p><p><img src="/inlineimages/WorkOrder/6/1245981403232.jpg"/> </p><p /><p>W00T!</p>
[Code].....
Notice how the "<font color=" has single quotes around its value, and "<img src=" has single quotes, with a double quote jammed in between?
Also, is there an automated way to go from my initial string, to the "Dim input As String" I created? I had to manually type that out, editing the quotes just to try and make it work.
The above will work fine if the html block is spread fully across the keyword.eg.
<b>[CustomerName]</b>
However if the formatting of the keyword is split throughout the word, the string is not found and thus not replaced.e.g.
<b>[Customer</b>Name]
The formatting of the string is out of my control and isn't foolproof. With this in mind what is the best approach to find a keyword within a html string?
I have a VB .NET String. How can I search that string for a character string and replace it with another string?
For example:
Dim rValue As String = sproc.ExecuteScalar() ' rValue now has the XML string <indracio fire height=23, width - 6> /* This is the string that I want to search. Replace the words "indracio fire" with the word "lucion time"
How can I search this string for the words "indracio fire" , and replace with the word "lucion time" ?
I found this function that replaces multiple substrings within a string on the internet but it gives an error on one of the parameters.It doesn't like this one:
ByVal ParamArray FindChars()) As String
Can you look at the code and correct the error since I don't yet know about explicitly typed parameters?
Emad Public Function ReplaceMultiple(ByVal OrigString As String, _ ByVal ReplaceString As String, ByVal ParamArray FindChars()) _[code]......
For years I never had trouble with this String. Format function until today when I got a value longer than 0 characters and the function returned all the characters in the string instead of just ten. Now sometimes I get less than ten characters so I can't use the substring with out getting an error. I can try the left function but I was hoping there was a solution with the Format function.
I know how to declare a variable, a function, to write a string of characters or numbers (I still looking in tutorials and depict from there what i need to know) but...WHAT I DONT KNOW is how to USE them? At "what" or "how" are you thinking when you make a program? I try for SOME LOooNG TIME to understand but I think im too stupid to understand from pages on the net (or i dont find THAT tutorial who can explain right for me).I try a lot of programing languages starting with pascal,c,c++,darkbasic,alice, Visual-c,c#,c++,basic,php,even assembler, some programing zones in Excel and Word but from all of this i cant manage to understand the life behind the words.
is there any function to validate if a string has only numerical characters? I can cross character for character and verify if it is a number. But I look for something simpler or if already a function like that exists.
I cannot use IsNumeric or IsDigit because it returns numbers to True with point or comma.
I need only numeric characters (no comma nor points
how to remove or replace specific characters from a string. The code sample is provided contains a VBScript function to parse a string, replacing or removing any character found in the array declared at the beginning of the function.VBScript String Clean Function - Remove/Replace Illegal CharatersThe function was originally writted to remove illegal characters found in a string for use as a document file name in SharePoint Document Library.To use the function, simply update the array at the beginnning of the function to include all of the characters which are to be removed or replaced. If replacing specific characters with something else, the you will need to set inside the finction the string which will replace each character if found.The VBScript function then returns a cleaned string.VBScript String Clean Function - Remove/Replace Illegal CharatersBlogs: SharePoint Development | Web Development & Programming | Webmaster resources & free SEO
This code is working fine, but now I want to replace two times and I want to use the replace function twice. Something like this, but it is not working . Can anyone tell me how to use Replace function multiple times?
I have a string of characters, but I would like to have a string of hexdecimal characters where the hexadecimal characters are converted by turning the original characters into integers and then those integers into hexadecimal characters. How do I do that?
The file reads in parameters and two of the parameters used to be in Date Format YYYYMMDD but will now permanently be in format YYYY-MM-DD. This change, I believe, is stopping the import of the file from working. I would like to replace the new format YYYY-MM-DD back to YYYYMMDD in the code. If possible I'd also like to see some output so I know that the old format has been replaced with the new format. The code is below. I added the two rows with .replace code in green in expecting that to be enough but it is still not working.
Public Sub Main() Dim R1, O1, P1, C1, strDateFrom, strDateTo, strRunDate As String
I have a text file, the file is sent to me, but this file has a particularity, because between characters get special characters, as if the file was a binary file.I put a screenshot. I need to pick up and replace these characters by the character "-", those chracters are at position 13 to 18 on all lines. And sometimes there is a "\n" character that makes it split the line, and this should not happen.
I have a multi line text box that accepts Enter and tab as input, but this data needs to be saved without these characters. When the user loads this data, the text should be displayed as it was originally entered.In PHP, there is a function to replace line breaks and tab characters with and , and with \. I need a similar function here.
