Regular Expression - How To Remove Characters Except For Last Ones
Jul 31, 2010
I am looking a regular expression that will remove all of the text except for the charachters that comes after the last "-" character. in this way I can get the ID for a URL.
[URL] so that after the regular expression will be exutes I will have "t43g2g" ID.
I need a regular expression on a RegularExpressionValidator that just checks if the minimum length is 3 characters, it doesnt matter what characters are typed in...
I have a string which has to be matching @"^[w*$][ws-$]*((d{1,})){0,1}$". If it doesn't match this regex i want the characters that do not match to be deleted from the string. How can i set this up?
I'm using the ASP Validation control a wanted to test that multiline textbox content was between 2 and 40 characters. Any character can be provided, including the new line character. What would be the expression? What I have below fails.
I am trying to write a regular expression to replace all special chracters within a string so that I am left with just alphanumeric characters and spaces or full stops.
I am using this expression at the moment
[Code]....
But then I test this with the string "This is a test!", it returns "Thisis a test", which would be fine, except for the space it removes between "This" and "is", can anyone else me where I am going wrong or supply a better expression?
I'm using RegularExpressionValidator controls to impose password rules when creating new passwords. I want to avoid repeatitons such as 'aaaa' or sequences such as '12345' in the password.
How do I write the validationexpression to a RegularExpressionValidator to impose this rule? I do not want to do thing using C#, just with a regular expression that could be put within the validator control like below:
There may be an easier way, and if there is I'm all for it. However - my ASP.NET page has a TON of controls on it, and I've given them all ID's that start with underscore. I copied all the markup into Notepad++ and I'm trying to find a regular expression that will find everything but the controls and replace it with whitespace. that way I'll have a text file that has all my control names which I'll probably throw into Excel and do some string manipulation to add ".Text = " etc.
We have a custom set of custom control tags, eg:<ourTag:OurControl runat="server" />Throughout our project we have discovered Visual Studio's marvelous(sarcasm) helper which automatically pastes an ID with the tags name followed by a counter number. I am now trying to remove them globally.
I need to construct a regular expression for the password textbox which shouldn't accept special characters($,@,!,etc).Even whitespaces,tabs. I tried the below this accepts special characters.
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegEx" runat="server" ControlToValidate="Password" ErrorMessage="Password must be atleast 8 characters and include a number,alphabets upper case and lower case. "ToolTip="Password format is not correct" ValidationExpression="^(?=.{8})(?=.*d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z]).*$"> </asp:RegularExpressionValidator>
I'm trying to use the validator to work on a email form to ensure that they enter a valid from email address. That part works. I also want to add to the expression the text that I pre-populate in the txtbox ("Enter your email address") so on postback, after sending the message, I can clear the fields and repopulate that box.
How do I add that wording to the current expression: w+([-+.']w+)*@w+([-.]w+)*.w+([-.]w+)*
I am using Regular Expression validator for a text box. The below is working fine.It is not performing validation when I enter values like 0000..001.How can I modify validation expression? But it would allow values like 100,...5000 i.e zeros after a number.
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="reg2" runat="server" ControlToValidate="rng2" ValidationExpression="^[0-9]+" ErrorMessage="*Please Enter a Valid Number for Second Range." ForeColor="Red" Font-Bold="True"></asp:RegularExpressionValidator>
I need some help in regular expression.I am validating the textbox text when updating the records.When i click the update button,the first 5 letters should be equal to CM000 or cm000.How to validate this using regular expression in asp.net. does anyone know validationexpression for this.
I would like to know what the expression for "letters only" is for my asp.net web application. I tried ^[A-Za-z] but it does not work I would also like a regular expression for "numbers only except "-"
I am trying to write a Regular Expression Validator to allow users to input any number (either positive or negative), except 0. I tried the followings but obviously they failed:
^[1-9-]{1,10}$ <= failed when the 2nd to n-th digit is 0
I am using a regex to detect forum tags within posts, such as "[quote]text[/quote]" and then replace them with HTML formatting. I posted a question Forum tags. What is the best way to implement them? about a problem with nested tags.
Right now this matches an opening and closing tag, with match groups for the tag name, the tag content, and an optional value like the value after the equals in this forum tag [url=www.google.com]click me[/url].
What I need is for the expression to match the opening tag OR the closing tag and have a match group containing the tag name (including the '/' for the closing tag). I then want to iterate through them sort of like this:
Dictionary<string, int> tagCollection = new Dictionary<string, int>(); inputString = Regex.Replace(inputString, @"expression I'm asking for here", match => {
[Code]....
So now, each tag is appended with a number and I could use the original regex to perform the tag functions and properly handle nested tags as separate tags.
