Replace Keyword Within Html String?
Jan 13, 2010
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 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 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.

The file reads in parameters and two of the parameters used to be in Date Format YYYYMMDD but will now permanently be in format YYYY-MM-DD. This change, I believe, is stopping the import of the file from working. I would like to replace the new format YYYY-MM-DD back to YYYYMMDD in the code. If possible I'd also like to see some output so I know that the old format has been replaced with the new format. The code is below. I added the two rows with .replace code in green in expecting that to be enough but it is still not working.
Public
Sub Main()
Dim R1, O1, P1, C1, strDateFrom, strDateTo, strRunDate
As
String

I'm having trouble replacing some HTML strings when they are coming from an database connection and was wondering if you could help.
html = Replace(html, "<ul>", "<ul class=""line"">")
The above line I'm using to replace all <ul> that I pull through with the preferred UL class. Problem is that all tags are coming through as normal.I use the above code to successfully replace the following and was wondering why it wouldn't do the same for <ul>.
html = Replace(html, "<", "<")
html = Replace(html, ">", ">")

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?

I ran into a problem. Wrote the following code snippet:
teksti = teksti.Trim()
teksti = Replace(teksti, "<", "& lt;")
teksti = Replace(teksti, ">", "& gt;")
teksti = Replace(teksti, """", "& quot;")
teksti = Replace(teksti, "'", "& #8217;")
[Code]...
After writing this I realized it becomes its own problem. The function is supposed to make information safe for HTML and SQL injection (there are other methods too, parameterized queries, etc but that's beside the point). However what happens, is that it first replaces < with & lt; and then proceeds to replace the newly written string again as every replace string has &, # and ; signs in it.
I thought about using a regex for this, but I couldn't find any decent Visual Basic examples that were simple enough. Edit: I was sure there would be a "smart" easy way to do this, but I guess there are no common methods available after all. The re-arranging the problem cases first is the obvious solution here,As for parametirized queries, checking back I see my English doesn't come out as intended. I meant to say that I'm already using them, that this problem here is specific to prevent all manner of html-injection and possible sql-injection using the same strings elsewhere later.

System.String is a class type, but why we can use it without instantiate it with New keyword?
For example:
Dim CommandLineParameters As String = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.Command
No new keyword being used at all?

[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.

how to replace the html code numbers with the correct ones? i would show you example of html output, but vbforum automatically converts the characters so no point. i wish the replace all the & #40; (without the space) and so on with their correct replacement eg, ( in this case. also would like a short way to do this as i will be using this multiple times. so basically i would like the source to be exactly as it would if you viewed source in firefox browser, not with all the special chars unformatted like visual studio does.

Problem: Your task is to take input from the user in string and give the following options to the user in a menu.
1- Find a String
2- Create sub-string
3- Erase a portion of a sting
4- Replace a word in the string
5- Count number of words and characters in the string without spaces.
6- Capitalize first character of each new sentence and convert the rest
of the characters to lower case.
7- Sort all the words in alphabetical order. (Use Bubble sort algorithm to perform sorting).
To perform all the above mentioned tasks you can only use pointers. Create a function to perform every task.

I have a non standard text file, ie its not delimted etc, its pretty much free flowing. What I want to do is to search for a specifc string eg. "xyz123" and then replace it with what a user types into a text box, lets call the text box and its contents "txtreplace".
I am trying to replicate a find and replace function essentially, but will need to tailor it later on down the line, but this will be a starting point.

I am using System.IO.FIle.ReadAllText() to get the contents of some template files that I created for email content. Then I want to do a Replace on certain tokens within the files so I can add dynamic content to the template.Here is the code I have, it seems to me like it should work just fine...
Dim confirmUrl As String = Request.ApplicationPath & "?v=" & reg.AuthKey
Dim text As String = IO.File.ReadAllText( _
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("sign_up_confirm_email_text").Replace("~", _
[code].....
For some reason I cannot get the %%LINK%% and %%NAME%% Replace() calls to work properly. I checked to see if it was encoding-related, so I made each file UTF-8. And also used the forced encoding overload of ReadAllText(String, Encoding) and still no dice.

I am reading a text file and I need to replace a few areas with new text that I marked with {0}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {4}, {5}, {6}. So I load in the text, save it to a string variable, and then use String.Replace but it's not working.
For i As Integer = 0 To 6
fileText.Replace("{" & i & "}", DisplayStudentData(i))
Next[code].....
I put all the data items into an array, then did this after loading the text file:
fileText = String.Format(fileText, dArr(0), dArr(1), dArr(2), dArr(3), dArr(4), dArr(5), dArr(6))
Is this a good way of doing it?

I have a string, lets say "((HRARNT*50)/100) + ((HRA*10)/100)"
And, i have value for HRA, HRARNT in a DGV and i want to replace it with its value to get "((5000*50)/100) + ((3500*10)/100)"
But, problem arises when it replace HRARNT with "3500RNT" as it got HRA value in DGV.
Now, i want it to first check if its prefixed or suffixed with +,-,*,/,),( then only it should replace with its subsequent value from DGV.
Though, first i tried placing HRA,HRARNT in [] and then replace, which worked fine, but users don't want to add [].
How to implement above logic?

I was just wondering is there an easy way to replace a line in a string where I don't know what line it will be and I don't know what will be on that line apart from the first three characters which will always be:
To:
And that shouldnt be anywhere else in the string.
This string will be the contents of an email (read in via an EML file) I then need to change the line that says 'To: <someones@email.address> to a series of addresses then save them eml again.
I have read then entire email in and stored it in a string and can save again just struggling on the replacement of that line.
