View 1 RepliesI'm creating page to put together a list of cinema trailers on an asp.net web page inside of a repeater.
The source of the data is an online XML feed.
To do this I'm binding the repeater as follows...
string XML_FEED_URL = "http://some-cinema-feed.com/comingsoon/";
XmlDataSource data_source = new XmlDataSource();
data_source.DataFile = XML_FEED_URL;
data_source.XPath = "/movies/movie[position() > 0 and position() < 3]";
this.moviePreciewsRepeater.DataSource = data_source;
this.moviePreciewsRepeater.DataBind();
The issue is that the length of the feed changes regularly and rather than selecting a range of movies with the XPATH (i.e. 1-3 in the XML) I need to select 3 totally random movies from the XML and bind this back to the repeater.
I have a traffic rss feed which I want to filter when a user enters some text in the text box. For example, if the user enters “Leicester” in the search box then only data containing “Leicester” in the “Tile” OR “Desscription” with be displayed.
<asp:DataList ID="dl_traffic" runat="server" DataSourceID="Xml_1" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:14px;margin-left:2px">
<FooterStyle BackColor="#CCCCCC" ForeColor="Black" />
<SelectedItemStyle BackColor="#008A8C" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
<AlternatingItemStyle BackColor="White" />
<ItemStyle BackColor="#EFF3FB" ForeColor="Black" />
<HeaderStyle BackColor="#000084" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
<ItemTemplate>

parsing the HTML from a URL for e.g. www.google.com...Idea is to convert the html to xml and than read and dump the content in the database...Is the approach correct or their a better way to do so?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to parse a HTML file to retrieve certain info in my asp.net app. I've looked at the html agility pack but found that also quite difficult. :-) As my HTML should be pretty standard I'm hoping regex is quick and easy. I need a regex that will look through the html file (which I've loaded into a string) and find the below line and take out the DATATOEXTRACT (which will be some sort of text, the name of a recipe in this case) so I can put it into a variable:
<span class="titleText1">DATATOEXTRACT:
</span>
My target web site is: [URL]
focus this on that page: "XU100 64.882,72 -1.36 %" it is on top..
The exact target is 64.882,72 this value!...
What is the best way for this value?
My platform: asp.net , c#

The question is not really about parsing the HTML, but rather parsing the HTML and adding elements to the DOM according to the HTML tags. For example - I want to be able to take an HTML page, add attribute to the HTML tags - such as "class='replace'", put some PHP/ASPNET code in the page (make an ASPX page with ASPNET or put some include with PHP) and make them parse the page every time it is accessed and manipulate the DOM of the tags marked as 'class="replace".
For example if I have < div class='replace'>< /div>, after I run the script I'll get something like < div class='replace'>This is a new text< /div>
have content html and put it into s variable

I'd like to know one (or more) ways to parse the HTML page output. I'd like to detect some patterns on the HTML that will be send to the client and log some info if present.

View 5 RepliesI am creating a web app in ASP.NET with VB code behind. I would like it so that a user can input a url ("[URL]") and then when the user presses the GO button, I want the system to interprete the [URL] page (without navigating to it), look in the HTML source, and store all data that is present within the URL's <p></p> tags...is this possible?
I have noticed a similar thing present on [URL]. When you submit an article to [URL], it automatically looks at the URL's <meta name="description" content="" /> in the URL HTML file. I would like to do a similar thing, but instead extract all text between all <p></p> tags.
I need to read a html page and parse the contents of a table in that. I am using ASP.NET.Could anyone tell me how to do this.

View 1 RepliesI would like to know which CODE, Classes could be useful for creating a WEB APPLICATION that could:
01 - Connect to an HTML file on the web.
02 - Parse its content (text content).
03 - Find out specific content in a page (for example looking for specific keywords).
Also how to implement:
04 - How to submit information programmatically in HTML page (feeling forms).
I am interested in understanding Classes and general practice and CODE for accomplish this task.
I have successfully been able to parse HTML from a website:
TestParser parser = new TestParser [URL]
List<Pairing> pairings = parser.ParsePairings();
DBSave.SavePairings(pairings, userID);

This works. Now I have to submit a form via C# code.... DONE. It works. And my C# code saves the "new" HTML to a string variable called "submitParsedHTML". My question is: how to I change out the URL, to go through the string variable instead? I am thinking about doing this: When the user clicks the button to "Post" to the form and the app grabs the HTML. The app logs into my FTP account and saves the HTML as a seperate (temporary) file to be used on the internet [URL] Then the app can then parse the HTML as if it was a normal HTML document and not have to go through formatting the text to an HTML document. What do you all think?
we are trying to use google to get exchange rate prices.

The file is validated using FluentValidation. So if the file is valid (Is CSV and less than 400 KB) then the ModelState is valid.
The problem is that if the ModelState is valid then I need to parse the file and here some errors can occur:

Can this be done?
I mean the ModelState was valid but sudenly it is not valid anymore.
I need to parse through the aspx file (from disk, and not the one rendered on the browser) and make a list of all the server side asp.net controls present on the page, and then create an xml file from it. which would be the best way to do it? Also, are there any available libraries for this?
For eg, if my aspx file contains
<asp:label ID="lbl1" runat="server" Text="Hi"></asp:label>
my xml file would be
<controls>
<ID>lbl1</ID>
<runat>server</runat>
<Text>Hi</Text>
</controls>

I occasionally get errors in my aspx files which are caused by problems with the designer file. When this happens I delete the designer file, right click on the aspx file and select "Convert to Web Application".
Usually regenerating the designer file works perfectly, however sometimes I get an error which simply says "Could not parse the file pathToFile.aspx". When this happens there are no useful errors displayed in the error panel which would indicate what the problem is. I got this error a little while ago, did some searching and found a blog which explains how to get round this problem. It suggests closing the file, cleaning the project, rebuilding then tring again. VS should now give you a more useful error message which pinpoints the problem. This has worked for me in the past, but doesn't work all the time.Has anyone found a better way of identifying the problem in the aspx file when the "Could not parse file" error is displayed?
I am trying to find duration of an mp4 file using direct show component of windows using the Dotnet wrapper(directShow-lib 2005). But the method i used was GetDuration of IMediaSeeking interface. But this returns zero as duration.After searching i found the following statement:"It doesn't matter whether it's in a container or not, it only matters whether you have a parser/reader for it. There is no stock DirectShow parser to read raw H.264 files and no third-party one I can think of. Also, whether IMediaSeeking would work with such a raw file is implementation-dependent. Last, most H.264-related filters use MPEG2Video or
VideoInfo2 and neither works with MediaDet, so you would have to build the graph yourself."
The project I'm working on allows an end-user to modify CSS code to integrate the application as best possible. Most of the CSS values are stored in a database and need to be retrieved and parsed dynamically. I setup a Style controller, and gave each stylesheet an action, and then passed the configuration data through to the View. I set the ContentType to "text/css" and then generated the stylesheets. This works fine, but the problem I'm running into is this: none of the code works in the application. I include it in the head code, but it doesn't parse in the code. An example of what I do is this:
<%@ Page Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<dynamic>" ContentType="text/css" %>
.element {
background-color: <%= ViewData.Model.BackgroundColor %>;
}
I include it like so:
<link href="/style/Basic" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" />
When I include the CSS code in a partial view and include it using the ViewModel (wrapped in style tags) in an action, then everything works fine. It is when I try to parse this as a separate file when it does not work. Is there something I am doing incorrectly? Or is there some kind of glitch?
