I have a web application where the user uses an HTML editor to input some formatted text to show on the website. This text is stored, as HTML, in a database. It turns out now, after some time, that users are sometimes entering whitespace (newlines, spaces, etc) before and/or after the text they are entering, and this whitespace shows up in the rendered text on the page. Multiple sets of this text are displayed top to bottom, and due to this whitespace the separation between bits of text varies, which doesn't look very pretty. So, I've been asked to get rid of the whitespace automatically.
Seemed like an easy task at first, I'd just call Trim on the string. But that won't work, the 'whitespace' when rendered isn't actually whitespace at all, it's a bunch of <br /> or <br> or <br></br> tags, or spaces such as, even empty paragraphs <p></p> sometimes. So calling Trim won't help, I need to get rid of all the tags that would render as whitespace.
The HTML editor control I'm using may or may not have built in support for this, but it doesn't matter, the database is already full with texts that contain these newline tags, so the best option I can see is to simply trim this whitespace before displaying it on the page. [Code]
I would like to pass a whitespace character by using the System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(" "), and System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(" ") , where " " is the whitespace Character required. What do I need to type (" ") to get a whitespace character passed.?

View 2 RepliesI have some arrays that I don't know the exact number of indexes it will have, but I know the max it will have which is 1024, but let's say only 24 of those are actually used, is it possible to trim off the excess 1000 indexs that are worthless for efficiency purpose (if that even matters)?

i'm working on a project after returning to coding after four years off and i'm a bit rusty. My problem is that i'm creating a login page and i've got a few people with two last names. in the login box they would put their full name but in the database they have spaces between them. An example would be the name mighel santa anna.

I need to split a string at all whitespace, it should ONLY contain the words themselves. How can I do this in vb.net? Tabs, Newlines, etc. must all be split! This has been bugging me for quite a while now, as my syntax highlighter I made completely ignores the first word in each line except for the very first line.
View 4 RepliesI'm having difficulty with some strings of varying 'meaningful' length from a different database (not under my control) that I am trying to trim in my vb.net code.
I only want to remove TRAILING whitespace... therefore, I can't really use .trim method.
The reasoning behind this being that the field sent from the french database usefully uses a <space> to represent a 0 (as you do).
The string is always the same length but the meaningful length can vary, an example being 95WO<space>5CA<space><space><space>...etc
Or it could be this...
<space><space>WO<space><space><space>... etc
Or this...
<space>5WO95CA<space><space><space>...etc
I've got my methods in place to split the string into pairs and perform various lookups but until I can remove the trailing whitespace I'm a bit stuck
I have text like this format "term: 156^^^:^^59 datainput" Or "term: 156^^^:59 datainput" or "term: 156:^^^59" The "^" represented white space. Notice the white space between the the two numbers and the colon. There 2, 3, 4 or even 7 white space between the two number. I want to remove these white space so that the text can be in this format:

How do I remove new line and whitespace when using xmlWriter to create an XML file? I would like the file to be as small as possible.
View 8 RepliesI am trying to remove all whitespace from a text file and store each character into an array. Is there any way to combine all the lines together without leaving any whitespace? I tried the .replace method but it only removes whitespace for each line. It currently shows like that, but I want it to be 1 whole block of text without whitepace in every line:

Is there any way in VB.NET to remove all of the whitespaces between tags in HTML? Say, I've got this:
<tr>
<td>
The string I've built is an entire HTML document, and it counts everything before those tags as legitimate space, so I need to trim it out. Is there a reg ex or function out there I could use to do this?
There is an option in Visual Studio (since as far back as I can remember) that allows you to see "Whitespace" in your code. This is often seen in file differential viewers as well.
I'm wondering if anyone knows how this can be accomplished in VB.net (or any other way) so that i could use a similar type of display option in my software.
I have not yet tried to do this but my only first thoughts would be to override the "paint" of the textbox to actually add the little tab "arrows" and space "dots" manually via GDI, or create a texbox control from scratch. Seems to me there could be an easier way to do this.
I am developping an app which talks across a network and will eventually be used to read in a text file (on the client) and transfer it to the server. Currently, the server and client succesfully connect to each other using the Tcplistener/Tcpclient classes. I am now trying to send some data across the network using the networkstream class, which I have implemented.Currently for testing purposes i am sending a char array which contains the characters "hello" which succesfully sends and outputs to console on the server. Although, "hello" is followed by a long list of whitespaces. I have tried converting this to a string array on the server and/or client and using the string.Trim() function (amongst trying many other things over the past couple of hours) although the output remains the same.
View 19 RepliesI am getting extra whitespace characters rendered in my horizontal list of anchor tags below. This is causing a major CSS styling issue for me. I know this question has been addressed as far as a C# workaround is concerned (asp.net mvc razor extra space), but can anyone help me with a VB workaround? I don't have the advantage of curly braces to eliminate all whitespace in a single-line If condition.
I have managed to work around it for now by writing an HtmlHelper extension method, but this dynamic code is only used in one place (the master layout page). It seems to me that this should really be done in the .vbhtml page. Here is the erroneous code, along with commented-out attempts at workarounds. The goal is to create a horizontal list of "sibling" pages based on a site map, with slightly different styles for the current page's link and the link just before it. [Code]
I have an ASP.Net 2.0 textbox which I need to be validated as having some content, but where whitespace alone is valid input. A required field validator seems to reject a pure whitespace input as invalid. A regular expression validator won't fire at all on empty content. Is there a simpler way round this than using a custom validator control?
View 1 RepliesI have a BindingSource that is my DataGridViews data source. I want to filter for all rows where column1 is blank. For example, one row may contain a null value, some rows may contain just white space, and other rows may contain text. How do I show just the rows with text (or numeric, or date) values?
Also, how do I filter for non-blank rows? This would show me all rows that contain a blank cell.
Me.BindingSource.Filter = ?
Does anyone know if there is a command to remove extra whitespace (blank lines) when coding?
View 8 RepliesI am trying to learn how to use the tcplistener and tcpclient classes. While I am attempting to compare something that is sent from the client to the server it seems that it adds a bunch of spaces, the reason I know that is if I write to the console what was sent it adds a bunch of spaces at the end. Is there anyway to get rid of it and just get the original text. I tried trim() but that didn't seem to work but I could have been using it improperly.

I have data formated like this that I need to split into 2 columns.

I'll have a go at describing the algorithm which I think is intuitively obvious - (for a particular selection) make each token on a line as left as possible, but not more left than any token of the same index on any of the other lines.
I'm working with this new API that returns some XML. The problem is that the developer has chosen to indent his returned XML and it's driving me nuts. So, I thought I'd just trim it and then use it that way. But it's not working. here is what I'm getting back from the API:
<response>
<result>success</result>
<session_guid>33434343556</session_guid>
</response>
The code, of course, comes back in a StreamReader object called reader. So my plan is to write the UNTABBED XML to a text file. I thought this would work:
dim output as String = reader.ReadToEnd()
dim xml as String
'open the file in a try/catch statment. Won't include that here
....
....
'Now, we're going to remove whitespace using String.Trim() and write it to a file:
xml = output.Trim()
Then I close the file and move on. The problem is that the String.Trim command isn't working! When I open the file, the indentations ARE STILL THERE and it's throwing everything off.
I'm a bit confused at why this code does not trim "say" but instead only the first letter "s".

I want to trim number like 1.1.5 to 1.1 and then 1
in my project there is a subhead 1 and in subhead 1 there is item 1.1 and in item 1.1 there is subitem 1.1.5 and so on.
e.g
1
1.1
1.1.1
1.1.2
[Code]....
now i want if i select 1.1.5 subitem it should select 1.1 item and subhead 1 automatically. to store in database.
At present I am trying to publish a program which I changed an IP address in but it is bringing me back two errors which are as follows:
TRIM IS NOT A MEMBER OF SYSTEM.NET.MAILADDRESS
and
DATABASECREATIONSCRIPTS IS NOT A MEMBER OF RESOURCES
What I cannot understand is why these errors are appearing as this program has been published before (not by myself) and is working correctly.All I have changed is the IP address which the program connects to in several different places. No hardcoding has been changed.
I am trying to use socket to transfer byte to client. I define Byte(1024) because I am not sure how many character is the server sending! I don't know how many index of this array has been occupied!?
View 1 RepliesI have this string that shall come in from another file. The string has maximum length of 102 digits. I need to compare the string with numbers in a pair and delete those from that string.
e.g - 6125223659587412563265... till 102
numbers that compare with this string-
first set - 61
new string = 25223659587412563265
second set - 36
new string = 252259587412563265
and so on. the set of numbers shall go to maximum of 51 pairs = 102, which shall give an end result of string = "" How can i achieve this in a loop?
this is not answer, this is editing the question. i dont know why but the edit button just vaniashed so i have to edit question here. No duplicates will ever be in this string. and in the end when compares are done, i want to see what numbers are left in pairs.
