VS 2010 - Replace Special XML Characters
Oct 27, 2011I have to replace XML characters that are being sent to me like this:
Private Balcony & Patios w/Storageto instead be this:
Private Balcony & Patios w/Storage
I want to make sure I have an exhaustive list of all possible characters, so we don't find one later after my programming change.
I was told to do these (by a developer at the client site who is passing me the xml as he gets it from the database and wants me to parse it):
replace all "&" to "&" as well as any of other 3 reserved characters:
">" to "<"
"<" to ">" and
"%" to "%"
But when I googled more infor on XML special characters, I found this list:
& &
< <
> >
" "
' '
Which says nothing about the % but mentions the quote and apostrophe.
So what is the exhaustive list?

C# - Replace String With A Control?
Feb 15, 2010I have a string with special characters insert in different places. For example:
string myString = "This is a textbox: ##";
I would like to replace the ## with a control (namely, a textbox).
The Replace method only allows the string to be replaced with another string or character (understandably). But what would be the best way to dynamically replace the ## with a control in its position?
I was thinking maybe I could replace it with HTML markup which would be executed, but not quite sure how that would be achieved.
EDIT: To clarify some details. The strings are being retrieved from a database, so I can't use the PlaceHolder control. The user selects a string from a drop-down list. The value of the item is the string with special characters. When the postback occurs from the item selection, I would like to display the string on the site, but replace the special characters with a fully working control (in this case, a textbox)

Web Forms :: How To Replace String Using Regex
Jun 16, 2010I am getting taggings like the following in a string

you can notice that each tagging differs only in the wordings
vocation
elation
sage
But i want to write a code some thing like this

C# - Replace Part Of Text In A Dynamic String
Oct 27, 2010Let's take this string has an example:
D:/firstdir/Another One/and 2/bla bla bla/media/reports/Darth_Vader_Report.pdf
I want to cut the first part of the path:
D:/firstdir/Another One/and 2/bla bla bla
And replace it with **../**, and keep the second part of the path (media/reports/Darth_Vader_Report.pdf)
If I knew the length or size of it, I could use the Replace or Substring. But since the first part of the string is dynamic, how can I do this?
Update
After StriplingWarrior question, I realized that I could have explained better.
The objective is to replace everything behind /media. The "media" directory is static, and will always be the decisive part of the path.
