Xml - Stop Automatic HTML Encoding When Assigning To HTML Input Fields?

May 6, 2009

I have to submit a HTML form to a 3rd party website and one of the hidden fields is an XML string. The XML needs escaping before it is sent to the 3rd party.

However when I add the plain XML to the form field it semi-escapes it for me. So then when I use HTMLEncode myself part of the XML is double-escaped. How do I prevent the automatic escaping that appears to becoming from .NET.

Or even better how else can send the escaped XML via the hidden field.

XML

<systemCode>APP</systemCode>

Basic assigning to hidden input field

&lt;systemCode>APP&lt;/systemCode>

When I HTML Encode it as well

&amp;lt;systemCode&amp;gt;APP&amp;lt;/systemCode&amp;gt;

I can see what's happening - but I don't know how to prevent it?

Html - VB Basic RegEx - Save Value From An Input Tag In HTML Source Code

Feb 16, 2011

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.

Html Source Code Doesn't Show Html But In Firebug Inspect Element Html Is There?

Jan 10, 2012

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>

[Code]...

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?

Save HTML To MHT With Indicated Encoding?

Mar 8, 2012

I want to save a HTML file to MHT file. Now, it is done with CDO object I googled. But, I want to save the MHT file with indicated encoding by myself. For example, the content in HTML file are Chinese word; if I save as the HTML to MHT in IE, the content in MHT are encoded by GBK (it are hex word instead of Chinese word); if I save as the HTML to MHT with CDO object, the content in MHT are Chinese word.

Sending An HTML Email, Where The HTML Comes From An HTML File .Net/ClickOnce Environment?

Jun 20, 2009

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. The users understand to use absolute link and image references when sending an E Newsletter. Environment:

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).

HTML - Encoding A Field Within A Gridview?

Apr 4, 2012

I have some of these events in my gridview custom coded. But the real issue here is that I store a previous record, that is, the record that was being changed, or the old.value and I store it in another column. So when the user enters say "< newValue >" without the quotes, the aspx validator rejects the input as dangerous.

I can disable the validation, and html encode the value as it gets written to the db, but when I display the value back in the gridview in the "Previous Value" column it appears like this...&lt Neutral &gt semi-colons missing because this site decodes.How I can encode and decode inline in ASPX?How can I encode this template field that is getting entered into a gridview?

<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("lang_String") %>'></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>

allow certain html characters to be entered into this field only without turning off validation for the entire site.I do need this to apply to the entire column.

.net HTML Encoding ISO10646 Characters, Trade Mark, Euro, Etc?

Jun 20, 2011

I am having a constant series of problems with encoding characters for output in an XML file through .NET. I have a feeling that the problem relates to a setting on the Response object being used but I'm unable to get anywhere finding the correct setting. If I do the following:

system.web.httpcontext.current.response.write("€ & ™" & server.HTMLEncode(" € & ™ "))

I get the following output:

€ & ™ € &amp; ™

The question is why are standard ASCII characters encoded, but the extended(?) characters not? Is there some kind of setting I need to give to the server object to tell it to convert characters like Euro/Trade Mark?One of the bullet points of MSDN's HTMLEncode function page states that: Any ASCII code character whose code is greater-than or equal to 0x80 is converted to &#, where is the ASCII character value.

HTML Input Button - Can't Get It To Click

Oct 14, 2009

I've done this multiple times in VB and VB.net, but this one button is giving me terrible issues in just clicking it.

Here is the page source:

<button id="formSaveLnk" onfocus="this.blur()" type="submit" onclick="return false;" class="aBtn-btn"><span class="aBtn-b1"><span class="aBtn-b2"><span class="aBtn-bTxt">Leave�Feedback</span></span></span></button></span><span id="formSaveNoScript"><input type="submit" value="Leave Feedback" class="aBtn-sB"></span></span></td><td style="padding-left:15px" id="learnMoreId" nowrap="nowrap" valign="middle">

Here is the code snippet that performs this task. It's finds the button, but clicking doesn't work:

htmlDoc = .Document
htmlColl = htmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("Input")
For Each htmlInput In htmlColl
If htmlInput.type = "submit" Then

[code]....

This works nearly every time, but not this time.I've also tried searching for the TagName "Button" and clicking that based on the innertext value of Leave Feedback, but that doesn't work either. I've also tried playing with onclick with something like this:

For Each htmlInput In htmlColl
If htmlInput.type = "submit" Then
If htmlInput.innerText = "Leave Feedback" Then

[code]....

But that doesn't work either.

JQuery - Retrieving Info From HTML Input Text Block

Sep 14, 2011

I have 2 HTML blocks, with JQuery DateTimePicker. Now after the date is picked (When you click the input box, the datepicker appears, then you click the date, the date appears in the input box, and when you click away somewhere, the datepicker dissapears. Now I need to retrieve that info with VB.Net and ASP.Net. I just changed the HTML input box to Asp.net Textbox. Then added the OnTextChanged function call when the text is changed, and called a function that stores that date into my class.

As such:
Start date:
<asp:TextBox name="startDate" ID="startDate" OnTextChanged="startDate_TextChanged" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"></asp:TextBox>
I tried to go with asp:TextBox before, but for some reason JQuery didn't work on it.

.net - HTML Input Not Working Correctly With AJAX Update Panels Used Else Where On Page?

May 20, 2010

I have some update panels on my page that do some asyncpostbacks to keep some dropdownlists correctly populated. My problem is that on my page i have an HTML input that is handling some file uploads. With the AJAX on the page with asyncpostbacks, and while i step through my code behind, the files arent being uploaded. Using a postbacktrigger (non-async) is not possible because of my layout.

Here is my code:

<div id="divFileInputs" runat="server">
<input id="file1" name="fileInput" type="file" runat="server" size="50" style="width: 50em"
onfocus="AddFileInput()" class="textbox" /></div>

[code]....

When I put a breakpoint in at the declaration of service and then check the value of "files", the count is 0. I am expecting it to be 2 when i have one file uploaded.

Extract An Html Fragment From An Html Document?
