I would like to use a regular expression in C# to turn any two or more spaces into non-breaking spaces. I would like to leave single spaces alone.
Sample Sample

I need to replace <span> entries in a string to legacy html code because it's going to be used in a report for Crystal Reports. <b> works with Crystal, but the<span>'s do not.
Here's the string which I'm trying to replace: <span style="font-weight: bold">%THIS CAN BE ANY TEXT%</span>. I want to replace it to
<b>%THIS CAN BE ANY TEXT%</b>.

How can I make this regex not accept spaces?: [0-9a-zA-Z' ']{3,}
Everything I'm reading says to put a * or a + after the [] , but I get an invalid expression error when I do. The end result I'm looking for is a string of letters and numbers only - no spaces inbetween.
I am looking for a regular expression for c# asp.net 3.5 that will fail if there are ever any double spaces in a sentence or group of words.
the cat chased the dog = true the cat chased the dog = false (doubles spaces occur at random intervals)
am using this function to remove whitespaces at html output. i had to put if else otherwise page was giving error afterasynchronous postbacks. now it works fine.is it possible to make it work also after asynchronous postbacks ?also is it possible to make this regex function also removes new lines ?like how google doesthere is no line at their source codes

How can I write regular expression in C# to validate that the input does not contain double spaces? I am using Regular Expression Validation. However I do not know what is the Validation Expression to get the result.
"white snake" : success
"white snake" : fail
I'm trying to complete a regular expression that will pull out matches based on their opening and closing characters, the closest I've gotten is
^([[)[a-zA-Z.-_]+(]])
Which will match a string such as "[[word1]]" and bring me back all the matches if there is more than one, The problem is I want it to pick up matchs where there may be a space in so for example "[[word1 word2]]", now this will work if I add a space into my pattern above however this pops up a problem that it will only get one match for my entire string so for example if I have a string
"Hi [[Title]] [[Name]] [[surname]], How are you"
then the match will be "[[Title]] [[Name]] [[surname]]" rather than 3 matches "[[Title]]", "[[Name]]", "[[surname]]". I'm sure I'm just a char or two away in the Regex but I'm stuck, How can I make it return the 3 matches.
I need a regex or any other solution to replace an id in the middle of a url (not in querystring).
url example - http://localhost:1876/category/6?sortBy=asc&orderBy=Popular
replace - category/6 with category/anotherID -
routing used -
routes.MapRoute(
"categories",
"category/{categoryID}/{categoryName}",
new { controller = "Search", action = "SearchResults", categoryID = "", categoryName = "" }
);
I try to replace [h2] to <h2> I use this coding:
string o = "<h2>test</h2>";
o = Regex.Replace(o, "[h2]", "<h2>");
o = Regex.Replace(o, "[/h2]", "</h2>");
But the result after the first regex is:
[<h2><h2>]test[/<h2><h2>]
So that is not what i want.
After the first 1, he should make:
<h2>test[/h2]
Whats wrong?
I have a long string containing the ,<p> </p> and <br>. I want to clean my string from all these tags and spaces. How it can be done with String.Replace() method. I am doing separately right now, it is working but is there a way to do it at once, without replace() method.
String.Replace(" ","").Replace("<p>","").Replace("<br>","")
It is giving me clean code but I am looking for a general solution, means if I am having more tags (10 to 20) to filter then how to do it efficiently.
with a regex that would replace the following. The only thing that would remain the same is the div tags, the id's and classes could change and so could the content.
<div id="nav" class="whatever">Content is whatever</div>
string lNewHTML = Regex.Replace(lOldHTML, "(word1|word2|word3)", "<a href="page.aspx#$1">$1</a>", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
The code works, but I need to include some exceptions to the replace - e.g. I will not replace anything i an img-, li- and a-tag (including link-text and attributes like href and title) but still allow replacements in p-, td- and div-tags.
How do I solve the problem below? I'm creating a simple content management system, where there is a HTML template with specific markup that denotes where content should be:
<html><head></head><body><!-- #Editable "Body1" --><p>etc etc</p><!-- #Editable "Extra" --></body></html>
Separate from this, there is content in a database field that looks a little like this:
<!-- #BeginEditable "Body1" -->This is Test Text<!-- #EndEditable --><!-- #BeginEditable "Extra" -->This is more test text<!-- #EndEditable -->
As you can guess I need to merge the two, that is, replacing
<!-- #Editable "Body1" -->
with: This is Test Text. I've begun the code here. But I'm having problems using the Regex Replace function that should be located at the very bottom of that For/Each.
//Html Template
string html = "<html><head></head><body><!-- #Editable "Body1" --><p>etc etc</p><!-- #Editable "Extra" --></body></html>";
//Regions that need to be put in the Html Template
string regions = "<!-- #BeginEditable "Body1" -->This is Test Text<!-- #EndEditable --><!-- #BeginEditable "Extra" -->This is more test #EndEditable -->";
//Create a Regex to only extract what's between the 'Body' tag
Regex oRegex = new Regex("<body.*?>(.*?)</body>", RegexOptions.Multiline);
//Get only the 'Body' of the html template
string body = oRegex.Match(html).Groups[1].Value.ToString();
// Regex to find sections inside the 'Body' that need replacing with what's in the string 'regions'
Regex oRegex1 = new Regex("<!-- #Editable "(.*?)"[^>]*>",RegexOptions.Multiline);
MatchCollection matches = oRegex1.Matches(body);
// Locate section titles i.e. Body1, Extra
foreach (Match match in matches)
{
string title = oRegex1.Match(match.ToString()).Groups[1].ToString();
Regex oRegex2 = new Regex("<!-- #BeginEditable "" + title + ""[^>]*>(.*?)<!-- #EndEditable [^>]*>", RegexOptions.Multiline);
//
//
// Replace the 'Body' sections with whats in the 'regions' string cross referencing the titles i.e. Body1, Extra
//
//

I am working on ASP.NET (C#) application. I want to change number decimal figure with comma(,) where i have dot(.) using regular expression.
For example:
Price= 100,00.56
As this international rule of representing numeric values but I Sweden they have different ways for numbers Like
Price= 100.00,56
So i want to change dot(.) into comma(,) and comma(,) into dot(.) using RegEx.
I am getting taggings like the following in a string
<color> vocation </color>
<color> elation </color>
<color> sage </color>
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
Regex.Replace(userAx, "<color> vocation </color>",
"<color> </color>"
so that the resulting output does not contain words at the centre.In the above code instead of giving the word vocation exclusively, i have to mention some pattern, so that it will replace all the words instead of doing it for first sentence only.How to modify my code?
How can I replace Html inside pre tag? I would prefer to do that with Regex

I have a textbox where I accept multiple email ids separated by a comma. I then split it in my code-behind. If an email id is invalid, I change the background of it using Regex.replace, like this:
Regex.Replace(InputTxt, Search_Str, StartTag & "$1" & EndTag, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
My start and end tags are definned as:
"<Span class=highlight>" and "</span>"and my CSS is defined
as:.highlight { text-decoration: none; color:black; background:yellow;}This doesn't work.
I want to change the way my blogs are displayed on my website. I currently use a seperate table in SQL to hold them and do a loop and replace.
All I really need to do is have a code that can be translated into real HTML in the blog code. I need to know the image name and the css class.
I was thinking is it possible to have somthing like this in a blog stored in the DB
<img L 1234.jpg> and use regex to match it and change it ton<img src="1234.jpg class="imgleft">
I know it looks like well why not just use the long code and not use regex, but I have a method that gets in the image path from the image name with padding. So in this case the image path would be 000/000/001/234/1234.jpg
I would have more then one occurance in the original string so would need to either somehow replace them all at once or use the regex to loop through untle they have all be matched
is something like this possible or do I need a different approach
I'm trying to replace some code generated by the AJAX Control Toolkit HTMLEditor from the XHTML standard to legacy code; <span style=*> to <b>, <u>, <i>, etc. This needs to be done because Crystal Reports doesn't understand the <span style=*> and needs the legacy items.
This is the code being generated by the HTMLEditor:
[Code]....
Is Regex.Replace the best way to replace these items? I need to keep the text between the opening and closing statements as well as ensure the proper formatting to the text so doing just ReplacementText.Replace will not work. I've tried a number of different things to try and get Regex.Replace working properly but keep having different issues and different things happen. But why it's not using the the closing span for the bold statement but using the closing span for the italics is beyond me.
i'm trying to find all the anchor tags and appending the href value with a variable.
for example
<a href="/page.aspx">link</a> will become <a href="/page.aspx?id=2">
<A hRef='http://www.google.com'><img src='pic.jpg'></a> will become <A hRef='http://www.google.com?id=2'><img src='pic.jpg'></a>
I'm able to match all the anchor tags and href values using regex, then i manually replace the values using string.replace, however i dont think its the efficient way to do this.Is there a solution where i can use something like regex.replace(html,newurlvalue)

I'm having a little trouble with using regex in linq. I want to be able to perform a search on values in my database. The goal is to insert a value into the regex and then use that to search a column in a table in my database for that term. I want it to work so that it gets all exact matches and also returns matches in which the search term is a substring of the term in the column.
