They both encode html
Why microsoft use several different function?
Which one is better? are there any strings that are encoded differently between 2 functions?I notice that System.Web.HttpUtility. HtmlEncode doesn't work in client framework. Why?
Im generating some html on the fly inside my application and saving it to an xml file.. All of this is working just fine, everything but the HTML Encoding.I have a stringbuilder which I am using for generating a small amount of html.. When I html encode the string I am getting & EVERYWHERE? and there are no & symbols!

Web.HttpUtility.UrlEncode(value) at VS 2005
What is the same control on VS 2008
I'd like to use HttpUtility.UrlEncode in a console application, VB.NET, VS 2010 Beta 2.
System.Web.HttpUtility.UrlEncode(item)
Error message: 'HttpUtility' is not a member of 'Web'. In this question Anjisan suggests to add a reference to System.Web, as follows:In your solution explorer, right click on references Choose "add reference"In the "Add Reference" dialog box, use the .NET tab Scroll down to System.Web, select that, and hit ok However, I don't have a System.Web entry at that location.
So far so good... In asp we have the HttpUtility.UrlEncodeIs there any equivelant in vb.netI tried importing the system.web without any luck... yet
View 3 RepliesWhere is httpUtility.UrlEncode in 2010?? From what I read in the forum I need to add a ref to System.Web. But I only see references to System.Web.Application.Services and System.Web.Services, which don't resolve the problem.

View 4 RepliesIt doesn't appear that the strings are being encoded.
Issue: Dim encodedStr As String = HttpUtility.HtmlEncode("<p>This is a test</p>")
The output produces:<p>This is a test</p>
Expected result:<p>This is a test</p>
I'm making an application that involves logging into a server, however, the post data needs some encoding.
Dim strEncUsername As String = Server.HtmlEncode(Me.txtUsername.Text)
However, since this isn't an asp.net application, this doesn't work. How the hay am I supposed to do this? I tried looking for an Imports thing, but no real luck.
I need to convert a plain text string into its URL form by encoding it.
This can be done in ASP.NET via the System.Web.HttpUtility.URLencode("string here") function, however an equivalent does not seem to exist in vb.NET framework 4.0
I have a form that I have been getting submissions that have punctuation and special characters that trigger the potentially dangerous Request.Form value error. I have been trying use the httpUtility.htmlencode and Server.htmlencode method to sanitize textboxes and textareas.All my tests do not fire because the built-in request validation of the 4.0 framework prevents the code-behind from executing to perform the sanitization. I have included the ValidateRequest in the page header but no matter what I set it too it still does the same thing.
This is the code I have so far.
Session("RequestID") = Server.HtmlEncode(txtRequestID.Value)
Session("FirstName") = Server.HtmlEncode(txtInstFirstName.Text)
Session("LastName") = Server.HtmlEncode(txtInstLastName.Text)

What can I do to make this work? According to all the websites I have visited it should work.
I'm currently having trouble declaring HttpUtility. I've tried a couple of things.

View 4 RepliesThere is a lot of duplication of functions in the My.Computer.FileSystem and System.IO.File namespaces.
So what exactly is the difference between: My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyFile(strSource, strDest, True)
and:System.IO.File.Copy(strSource, strDest, True)
Is there a performance difference? What is everyone's opinion on which which has the edge on read-ability? I personally use the My.Computer Namespace but that is just habit now.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to make this program which compares the difference between any date in the past and the system date, showing how many days have elapsed since that date. This is the layout I've created so far, the two date boxes currently show the system date so even if I change the system date, both those boxes will adjust to show it as well. I want to try and make the system date a box without a drop down arrow and so you cannot edit the box at all. The box below is fine how it is as the user can enter any date they desire. And the text box at the bottom needs to show the difference between the system date and the inputted date.

I'm trying to write a program which compares the difference between any date in the past and the system date, showing how many days have elapsed since that date.This is what I've got so far:
Code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub TextBox2_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
End Sub
[code]....
That's what it looks like so far. I was wondering how you can automate the top label so it automatically comes up with the date when the program is run.Plus, I need to know how to display the dates difference (how many days have elapsed between the system date and the user's chosen date) in the bottom label.
This may sound really stupid but I have to ask cause I'm not finding this answer anywhere.I have an application where the user will need to sign up for a new user account on the website [URL]..However when I am using Firefox's plug-in Firebug to view html I am getting something totally different than when I just right click on the site and view the page source.
What I am trying to do is to get the captcha from the website and display it in a picturebox on the application so the user can view the captcha, solve the captcha and then the app post is back to the service for a response.
Here is the source that I am getting using Firefox's Firebug to inspect the element:
<td>
<input type="hidden" value="Oo3Jo1I8bgzK68agMqo3s79ZZib2OkbK" name="iden">
<img class="capimage" src="/captcha/Oo3Jo1I8bgzK68agMqo3s79ZZib2OkbK.png" alt="i wonder if these things even work">
</td>

Why would the two be showing me two different versions of the HTML?
And how would you be able to grab that source to view in a picturebox using webclient?
Usage: Users create pretty HTML news letters in another app. They post the newsletter to the web, but they also want to set the contents of the HTML news letter file as the body of an email and send it using Application In Question.

AIQ is a VB.Net app deployed via ClickOnce. It is an intranet app; one can be sure MS Office 2003 and the interop 11 dlls are on the target machines.
Restrictions: MAPI is out. It mangles the HTML. Since it is a ClickOnce deployment, we can't register dlls (I think, correct me if I am wrong). Therefore CDO and COM is out (again, I may be wrong.... I would be happy to be proven so).

I need to create a "post office" program that will send html emails thru the system.net.mail framework.
For each job submitted to the postoffice the app would need to read a user created html email string from the database, read a string of email addresses to send to and send out the emails based on a set processing time.
The first step would be to parse out the email addresses to find out how many emails it needs to send out and determine how many it would need to send per minute to complete the job in 20 minutes tops. I.e. if 1000 email addresses are submitted per job it would determine that it needs to send 50 emails per minute to complete the job.
The part I am stuck on is how I should queue the emails. If the app determines it needs to send 50 a minute should I only load up the first 50 on a timer event then get the next 50 queued up for the next timer tick? Or would it be better to load up all 1000 in a loop and build in some kind of wait time after it sends the first 50?
Need a bit of help with HTML Agility Pack!Basically I want to grab plain-text withing the body node of the HTML. So far I have tried this in vb.net and it fails to return the innertext meaning no change is seen, well atleast from what I can see.

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.
then fill all tags and attribute of this page in vb arrayi know this is too much but would you expl
