What I am trying to figure out is how to use a custom delimiter, single character or set of characters, to wrap a block of text inside a larger body of text and then pull that text out via regex. I have successfully done this with a single instance of wrapped text. If I have multiple instances, it blows up. Here is an example.
This would be my text block with the internally wrapped text:
[Code]....
When my current regex runs on this block, the greedy nature gives me a match starting with my first wrapped block delimeter and ending with my second wrapped block end delimeter. So my regex of @"#Delim(.*)#EndDelim" doesn't work in this instance. I am trying to figure out how to exclude the #EndDelim from my grouping. Simply using ([^#EndDelim]*) doesn't work as it tells regex to ignore the individual characters inside the brackets and not the actual word so this breaks if I have any of those characters inside my wrapped block of text.
I am probably making this harder than it needs to be. Does anyone know of a good solution or how to ignore entire words in regex?
The numbers could be different, but what I'm looking for are the X_X numeric patterns. However, I need to do a replace that will search for 2_3 and NOT return the 12_3 as a valid match.
The +/-'s are arthemtic symbols, and can be any valid value. They also ARENT required (in the example of the first) .. so, I might want to check a string that just has 12_3, and if I pass in 2_3, it would NOT return a match. Only if I passed in 12_3.
area code should be entered in paranetheses is mandatory after area code there should be hypen and only three digit should be allowed to enter that is mandatory after 3 digit again hypen should be there that is mandatory and then 4 digit should be enter that is mandatory.
I'm trying to build an asp.net page using c# that will query a column in an Oracle database that has 20,000 rows. I want to display all rows that match this regular expression pattern "[]$".(should only have about 5 rows that match this pattern) The version of Oracle we use does not support regex so I need to find a way to do this in c# but I'm not sure how do that.
I have a table Books with columns BookID, BookSummary, BookAuthor.
What I have stupidly done was to add a link to another url at the end of the BookSummary. Assuming the text is something like this:
This is a book about a love story in World War 2 in Europe. The book is written by Elliot James.
I have added
<a href='http=://XXXXXX'>Buy Book</a> at the end of the text making the final content of BookSummary to be like:
This is a book about a love story in World War 2 in Europe. The book is written by Elliot James.
<a href='http=://XXXXXX'>Buy Book</a>
I now need to write a code (via regex?) to read through each BookSummary, find the <a href='http://XXXXX'>Buy Book</a> and delete it. But the problem is the content in XXX could be anything and I cannot use typical string functions. Can anyone guide me to achieve this using Regex?
I have a page with a text box, a button and a GridView. Enter an account number in the text box, press the check button and the result will show in the GridView.
Now user wants that if the text box is clear, the GridView disappear.
I can only find TextBox1_OnTextChanged. But I want to have that while the user is clearing the text, if the length of text becomes zero, the GridView is clear out. So I am looking for OnTextChanging(). Well of course this function does not exist. How to achieve the same purpose?
I have a web application (done in ASP/C#) that has regex validation on a text box. Initially the regex works perfectly fine. But then I also provide a button click event (clear) that allows the user the clear text box and change their input for a new query. At this point (page post back) the regex takes control and maintains control of the text box so a new query can't be run. Can anyone tell me what to do so that the regex doesn't fire on page postback and allows new input for validation?
I get the Subqueries are not allowed in this context. Only scalar expressions are allowed - i am going to run into this quite alot so I figuredI'd better see what the right way is!
I have a PDF document with a number of text fields, several of which have a maximum length - namely, a maximum number of allowable characters. Is there a way using iTextSharp to determine this setting? Here's the code I have so far:
Dim reader As New iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfReader("Foobar.pdf") Dim inputFields As IDictionary(Of String, iTextSharp.text.pdf.AcroFields.Item) = reader.AcroFields.Fields For Each key As String In inputFields.Keys Dim PDFFieldName As String = key Dim MaxFieldLength As Integer = ??? ... Next
I need to set MaxFieldLength to the number of allowable characters for the current form field being iterated over.
I just upgraded from VWD 200t to VWD 2010. I'm now seeing an error message that I never saw before. Error is: 'Text is not allowed between the opening and closing tags for element SqlDataSource'
Here is my HTML:
[Code]....
There is a green squiggly line under SqlDataSource, here:
asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource2"
I have a similar problem here:
[Code]....
Like above, there is a green squiggly line under SqlDataSource, here:
string pattern = "<(.| )+?>"; System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex regEx = new System.Text.RegularExpressions.Reg(pattern); string result = ""; result = regEx.Replace(htmlText, "");
In this "htmlText" will have some html code which also contains break tags. Right now its replacing all the html tags, but I want to leave break tag and replace the rest.
If I were to use singleton pattern for menu, would that cause that menu to be created once for application session or once for each user session. Obviously, I want something that will create menu items once per application session.
I have a table being brought in using HttpWebRequest (screen scraping). The table I grab is formatting properly but I have noticed a situation. This table has a URL which refers to a physical web page. What I would like to do is to take that URL using a .Replace clause and thereby change the URL to reflect <a href="details.aspx?id=111"> as opposed to <a href="111.htm">. So I went ahead and tried doing it this way but it doesn't do any replacement.
[Code]....
I figured using the regex expression it would find it and then I could just reuse it.
I was wondering if people out there test the length of their text values before inserting them into an SQL INSERT or UPDATE command? I got lazy and stopped doing it lately but I do restrict the length of some of my character fields so that I have a NCHAR(50) field but don't test the length of the string when inserting or updating and just rely on the server to fire back any problems.Am I being 'efficient' or 'lazy' or even 'dangerous'?I appreciate the opinion of you as just about anyone has more experience with SQL Server than I do.
I would like to conditionally remove a block of text between specifed start and stop delimiters. The code below does not work, but hopefully it suggests enough of what I am trying to accomplish.
Background: I've wrote a small library that is able to create asp.net controls from a string.
Sample text:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. At vero eos et {{asp:hyperlink|NavigateUrl="/faq.aspx";Text="FAQ";}}{{codesample|Text="FAQ";}} accusam et justo duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no sea takimata sanctus est Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur
I've expanded the code with some reflection to gain full flexibility to be able to render WebControls and UserControls. Works fine so far, for every usercontrol I've tested. I'm now facing the problem, that the parsing for my property key-value is not flexible enough to support arbitrary multine content.
This is part of the code that I'm using for the string operations:
