Strip All HTML Contents Except Anchor Tags

Dec 2, 2011

I'm importing data from 1 database to another. I've been requested to strip all HTML content, as its messy and not valid, and just keep the links. I currently use the following VB.NET function to strip all HTML tags from a string of content:

Public Shared Function StripHTML(ByVal htmlString As String) As String
Dim pattern As String = "<(.|
)*?>"
Return Regex.Replace(htmlString, pattern, String.Empty)
End Function

I'm looking for a way of stripping all, but a (anchor) tags from the content. For example if I have the following HTML content:
<table><tr><td>
Lorem <a href="[URL]">Ipsum</a>
</td></tr></table>

This will simply become:
Lorem <a href="[URL]">Ipsum</a>
How can I do this?

Display Html File At Anchor Location With Program?

Jan 20, 2010

I'm trying to open up an html file (with explorer) and navigate to a specific anchor location. The user should just see the file open up at the anchor's position. It's a local html document, not on the web, if that makes any difference. How can I do this in Visual Basic 2008?

So far I've been opening html files with Process.Start(filename) or Shell(filename, "explorer.exe", etc), but that doesn't seem to work with the additional html anchor tag (#anchorname) at the end of the file name. Also I've looked at webbrowser control, but as near I can tell that is more for editing html files.

I want to open a local html file in the user's default Web browser, and jump to an anchor within that file. In other words, I would like to have a result similar to clicking a link to localfile.html#my_anchor.

I've been using the System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(String) method to open html files, and this works fine. In the following example, I open a file named "info.html" in the "SomeInfo" subfolder of the folder containing the application:

Get The Data From Within The Html Tags?

Jun 18, 2012

i'm trying to get the following data from within the html tages <td class="colRight">CWCH60</td> where CWCH60 is the data which changes and needs to be extracted. I have tried the following Regex patterns

[^td|<|>|/|class|s|^="colRight"][A-Z|a-z|0-9][^</td>]
[^<td][^s][^class][^="colRight">][A-Z|a-z|0-9][^</td>]
[^tdsclass=""colRight">][A-Z][a-z][0-9]

all work fine in an online regex builder/tester but return WCH60 when executed. Why would this occur, is there a simple operator i have missed out?
