Regex.Replace With A String Of HTML
Jun 25, 2009
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.

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>

I want to select a random space in a string and replace it with a word (%word%) but there is a problem. The position cannot be fixed as i want it to be inserted at a random break. Few things which iam considering :
1)break the string at a space and merge it with the word
2) find a random space and replace it with the word. I like this point and so far all i have is break the selectedtext into string array and then iterate over each line. But i don't know how to find a random string position? Any short and sweet code please?
If (rtfArticle.SelectedText.Length > 0) Then
Dim strArray As String() = rtfArticle.SelectedText.Split(New Char() {ChrW(10)})
For Each str3 As String In strArray

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.

I've been working on this RegEx for the past day or so and I think I have it worked out so that it returns the data I want. First a little background.I have a content editor that users will be able to edit web pages. They can format text, add links, etc.. standard content editor stuff. When they click save, the editor provides the ability to get the content (editor.Content) and put it into a string. What I want to do is get any links (<a> tags) and find out if they are internal or external links and if they are PDF files.
Here is the Expression I've come up with:
<a[^<>]*hrefs*=s*[""'](?<domain>https?://[^/s'""]*)*/?(?<path>/?[^s""]+?)?[[>""']
With this, I am able to separate the domain (if it has one) and the path out. Then, I loop through the matches...
dim matchColl as MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(editorContent, regExString)
For Each m as Match in matchColl
If m.Groups("domain").value <> myInternalDomain and m.Groups("domain").value <> "" then
'this is an external domain... do some stuff
[code]....
My question is this... the parts where I 'do some stuff' to the values, what would be the best way to get that back into my 'editorContent' string? I could probably put the editorContent into a StringBuilder and do a whole bunch of replaces on it, but is that very efficient?So, for example, with the PDF, I want to specify that it open in a new window (target="_blank") and for the external URL, add some javascript code into the onclick attribute.

I am looking for a way to replace keywords within a html string with a variable. At the moment i am using the following example.
returnString = Replace(message, "[CustomerName]", customerName, CompareMethod.Text)
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 am having an issue where I am using regex.Replace to replace part of a string. The basic idea is that I want to capture the beginning of the string then replace the end of the string with a value from code. For an example pretend I have a string that says "Test Number " followed by number and I want to increment that number. I capture the "Test Number " but when I try to concatenate that capture with the new number it treats the capture ($1) as a literal and replaces the entire string with $1[new number].
[code]...
This will output "We are on Test Number 2", as expected. how I can use a variable in the replacement string portion of the Regex.Replace when including a captured group?

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 trying to think of a regex replace to replace double quotes with nothing. Example:
hello("hi there") would become hello(hi there)
"hi" would become hi
"example "3" would become example "3
-edit Maybe an easier way to explain this is, replace all " that do not have a backslash before them.

I'm creating a program in VB.NET to output multiple images. Some images will have the same file name. If there is multiple files with the same name I want to add "_1_" to the end of the file name. If the "_1_" file already exists I want to increment the 1 to be "_2_". If this file already exists I want to continue incrementing the number ultil it doesn't exist. So for example "filename", filename_1_", "filename_2_", etc. Here is the code that I have tried

I am trying to filter out all unwanted characters from a string. All I want in the string is letters A-Z, numbers 0-9 as well as comma (,) plus (+) and quotes (").I figured how to do the letters and numbers, but the 3 special characters are giving me a problem. I also tried with the Chr(34) equivelant for the " sign, but no luck, as and " or , messes up the way the code is read. Here�s what I have so far, but it only works for A-Z and 0-9:
STR = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(STR, "[^A-Z, 0-9, Chr(43) ]", "")

I am trying save a value from an input tag in some HTML source code. The tag looks like so:
<input name="user_status" value="3" />
I have the page source in a variable (pageSourceCode), and need to work out some regex to get the value (3 in this example). I have this so far: [Code] Which works fine most of the time, however this code is used to process source code from multiple sites (that use the same platform), and sometimes there are other attributes included in the input tag, or they are in a different order, eg:
<input class="someclass" type="hidden" value="3" name="user_status" />
I just dont understand regex enough to cope with these situations.

I'm using the following VB.net Code to find phone numbers in HTML and make them "clickable":
Regex.Replace(pDisp.Document.Body.innerHTML, "([0-9+ ]{3,6}[s]{1,1}[0123456789 -/]{4,15})", "<a href=http://DIAL/$1>$1</a>")
There appears an issue if the numbers contain white spaces, for example:
089 12233 455
This will be replaced with:
<a href=http://DIAL/089 12233 455>089 12233 455</a>
Is there a way to get
<a href=http://DIAL/08912233455>089 12233 455</a>
instead?

I am trying to replace text in my xsl file. I have to replace all the http and https. But I can leave any links that start with <a href>
Ie; http://www.google.com has to replaced. But < a href="google.com">google.com</a> has to remain as it is.
I am using regex to find all the http(s) and a hrefs in the text. I am struck here.
My code is,
Dim href As New Regex("(<a.*?>.*?</a>)", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
Dim hrefs As New Regex("http(s)?://([w+?.w+])+([a-zA-Z0-9~!@#$\%^&*()_-=+\/?.:;',]*)?", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
[Code].....
I am trying to use Regex.Replace to replace my https. But I am unable to write the evaluate function.
My regex.replace replaces all the values with a single value.

I need to use RegEx.Replace to replace only certain named groups in my input string.
So I might have a pattern like:
"^(?<NoReplace>.+)(?<FirstPeriod>(d{2})|CM|RM|PM|CN|RN){1}(?<LastPeriod>(d{2})|CM|RM|PM|CN|RN){1}((#(?<NumberFormat>[#,.+-%0]+))*)$"
Tokens such as CM, RM are being replaced using Regex.Replace with a MatchEvaluator. However, this should only be replacing characters in the FirstPeriod and LastPeriod groups.
Example input:
"FIELDCNS 01CM"
Desired output:

Is this possible or am I best just pulling out the parts I want to replace and re-assembling afterwards?

I'm wanting to search a RTB for all X coordinate values and convert them to SI mm units.
I have two issues: 1. My code is stopping after the first instance of match.success, I'm guessing i'm using nextmatch incorrectly? I have also tried matchcollections with no success.
2. I fear once we get it progressing to the next X value, any multiple X values with the same dimension will be replaced with my replace command, causing the new value to be converted again.
Dim MatchObj As Match = Regex.Match(RichTextBox1.Text, "[Xx](?<X>(d*.{1,1}d{1,4}))(s)*")
