Html - Regular Expression From Font To Span (size And Colour) And Back (.NET)?
Mar 26, 2010
I am looking for a regular expression that can convert my font tags (only with size and colour attributes) into span tags with the relevant inline css. This will be done in VB.NET if that helps at all.I also need a regular expression to go the other way as well.To elaborate below is an example of the conversion I am looking for:
<font size="10">some text</font>
To then become:
<span style="font-size:10px;">some text</span>
So converting the tag and putting a "px" at the end of whatever the font size is (I don't need to change/convert the font size, just stick px at the end).The regular expression needs to cope with a font tag that only has a size attribute, only a color attribute, or both:
<font size="10">some text</font>
<font color="#000000">some text</font>
[code]....
I also need another regular expression to do the opposite conversion. So for example:
<span style="font-size:10px;">some text</span>
Will become:
<font size="10">some text</font>
As before converting the tag but this time removing the "px", I don't need to worry about changing the font size.Again this will also need to cope with the size styling, font styling, and a combination of both:
<span style="font-size:10px;">some text</span>
<span style="color:#000000;">some text</span>
[code]....
I am extracting basic HTML & text from CDATA tags in an XML file and then displaying them on a web-page.The text also appears in a rich-text editor so it can be edited/translated, and then saved back into a new XML file. The XML is then going to be read by a flash file, hence the need to use old-fashioned HTML.
The reason I want to convert this code is mainly for display purposes. In order to show the text sizes correctly and for it to work with my rich text editor they need to be converted to XHTML/inline CSS. The rich text editor will also generate XHTML/inline CSS that I need to convert 'back' to standard HTML before it is saved in the XML file.I know the temptation will be to tell me a number of different ways to set up my code to do what I want but there are so many other permutations I haven't even mentioned which have forced me down this route, so literally all I want to do is convert a string containing standard HTML to XHTML/inline CSS, and then the same but the other way round.

This is a related to a previous question I have asked here, see the link below for a brief description as to why I am trying to do this.Regular expression from font to span (size and colour) and back (VB.NET).Basically I need a regex replace function (or if this can be done in pure VB then that's fine) to convert all ul tags in a string to textindent tags, with a different attribute value for the first textindent tag.For example:
<ul>
<li>This is some text</li>
<li>This is some more text</li>[code].....
Basically I want the first ul tag to have no indenting, but all nested ul tags to have an indent of 20.

I would like to match a certain url from an html page using a regular expression. For example I only want the url that appears after the <h2 header in the html page.basically here is the url I want to match; so what would the regular expression look like.
<h2 style="display: block"><a href="http://url.com/">url</a></h2>
I have matched the href part, but I only need to pull this particular one on the page that appears after the h2 header.

I have the following string:
<TD><!-- 1.91 -->6949<!-- 9.11 --></TD>
I want to end up with:
<TD>6949/TD>
But instead I end up with just the tags and no information:
<TD></TD>
This is the regular expression I am using:
RegEx.Replace("<TD><!-- 1.91 -->6949<!-- 9.11 --></TD>","<!--.*-->","")
How to keep the numbers and remove just what the comments.

I'm using this script:
http:[url].....To convert some outlook HTML to plain text.It nearly works, the only thing that it leaves behind is the CSS which outlook places in html comment tags <!-- --> in addition to <style> tags (which are removed).This is the original text:

I'm creating a basic text editor and I wish to include the option to change the font, font colour and background colour of the text box. Is there a way I can ask VB to display a font/font colour selection box or do I have to populate a combo box and code it all myself?

1. How do I exclude a string that is matched?
I have something like this:
You answered question 1 correctly. You have been awarded
<a href="url"> 1 point</a> .
You answered question 2 correctly. You have been awarded
<a href="url"> 1 point</a> .
You answered question 3 correctly. You have been awarded
<a href="url"> 1 point</a> .
You answered all 3 questions correctly! You have been awarded a total of
<a href="url"> 3 points</a> .
So basically I want to filter out all those in bold, it should look like this when printed to a textbox:
You answered question 1 correctly. You have been awarded 1 point.
You answered question 2 correctly. You have been awarded 1 point .
You answered question 3 correctly. You have been awarded 1 point.
You answered all 3 questions correctly! You have been awarded a total of 3 points.
2. How do I get a value of HTML span element? (I'm not sure how to phrase this but I think you will get it if I show a example..)
It goes something like this...
<span class="quiz1">Question 1:</span>
<span id="q1">Question Here </span>
I want text in bold to be displayed in a label. Do I use getAttributeByID here? How do I use it in VB.net?

I can't change change the font size or font name or color of the text in the DHTML Editing Control. I have 2 listbox controls FontNameList containing all of the installed fonts on my PC and FontSizeList containing some numbers to be used as fontsize and I use the execommand and build my App but the font did not change instead it grew bigger but when I tryed to change it back it stayed the same. The Code for that was:
Design.ExecCommand(5044, False, Font.Name)

I need to grab some data from a webpage but for me the main problem is I can't grab the data the way I want. I want to grab the data in a listview control but my code is fetching all data within any span tag (span class "inputFieldLabel" which is not required) in a single column of a listview control. I am giving the format (source) of the webpage below and my coding in vb.net (2008),
<br>
<span class="inputFieldLabel">Following Are ...</span>
<span class="inputFieldLabel">01/02/2011</span>
<span class="inputFieldLabel">And</span>

I have a label which appears full screen on a projector (VGA 2). In this label I will be sending strings. Some one liner's, some wrapped paragraphs. Some multi-line with carrage returns. My goal is to have the font dynamically change size to be as large as possible without overflowing the fixed label size.

Whats the font size real meaning? since when i use Arial font size 10 in the report its gonna take different space than the textbox im using (Both using exactly same font type/size/unit) its kinda if i set 10 milimiters to the font size why would the i and M for example have so diferent size.
i wish it was like in the Notepad where all the letters take the same space. what i need its to give a certain texbox(in the report) with auto grow to have always the same lines of height but its not posible to calculate it from vb b4 being inputed to the report.

when I click the Open button a file is opened and its items are sorted alphabetically. to do this I have doubled the size of my list. However, when I click the button again to reopen the same file, the items will ADD ON to the previous open-file event even though I have this piece of lstListboxTwo.Items.Clear()(the correct thing is to clear the previous items and add the new ones)So I think this has to do with the new size of my list..I think that I have to set the list size back to its normal size when re-clicking on the button.
Public Class frmForm
Dim List() As String = {""}
Dim count As Integer

How do you change the colour of the labels(not sure what the correct name is) in a Microsoft Chart Control in VB.
By "labels" I mean the text that is overlaid on every column in a StackedColumn chart.
You can change the Axis labels with the following:
<AxisY LineColor="Red">
<LabelStyle ForeColor="Red" />
</AxisY>
[Code].....
What is the equivalent to target the labels?

I'm looking for a way to change the font colour on alternate rows within a datagrid. e.g. normal row would be green and the alternate row would be blue. I can change either by using
me.datagrid.Styles.Row.Forcolour
me.datagrid.Styles.AlternatingRow.Forcolour
The problem is that I am having trouble using both of them together as I need to manipulate both colours. I have created a HtmlRowPrepared event and have been setting them there, however, If I set the Row.Forcolour first, it will over ride the AlternatingRow.Forcolour and vice versa. This needs to be done via SEVER SIDE code only as the colour choices are held in the database.

I have the following regular expression for validating a file name:
^(([a-zA-Z]:|))?(((.)|(..)|(. %5D">^/:*?"|<>. |([^/:*?"|<>][^/:*?"|<>. ]))?))). %5D">^/:*?"|<>. |([^/:*?"|<>]*[^/:*?"|<>. ]))?$
I can get it to work in VB.NET but not C#. I can't figure out why it works in one but not the other.
[Code]...
As far as I can tell the patterns are identical in both languages with escaping. When I run the VB code I get a match. When I run the C# code I get nothing.

I have just coded the below regular expression. I have a mini rich text editor on a web page (very similar to the one I am using to post this question) and I want to make use of a double asterisk to indicate which words/phrases should be wrapped in a strong tag. The aim is to allow the user to add pre-defined HTML elements without actually having to submit HTML.
[code...]
Maybe I am over-optimising this, but I want to know if this can be made more efficient?
