Using RegEx Replace Function In C# ASP?

Feb 18, 2010

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
//
//
//
}

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

"<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?

Images In Blog Using Regex And Replace?

Dec 12, 2010

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

Web Forms :: Regex Replace Not Working Properly

Jun 22, 2010

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.

How To Replace A Function Name Using JavaScript And Have It Be Recognized As A Function

Aug 25, 2010

I am trying to replace the JavaScript onclick event handler in ASP.NET that is added to a button control when using validation controls. This is what is output into the HTML from ASP.NET in this scenario:

<input type="image" name="ibSubmit1" id="ibSubmit1" src="button-green-submit.gif" onclick="showProgress1();WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions(new WebForm_PostBackOptions("ibSubmit1", "", true, "Group1", "", false, false))" style="border-width:0px;" />

I have looked pretty estensively, and unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way to modify the function server side before it is injected into the page.

Since I am developing a control and desire it to be non-invasive and self contained, and I am interested in obtaining the validationGroup parameter of the WebForm_PostBackOptions object, it seems that the easiest solution would be to use JavaScript to replace the WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions function name with my custom wrapper function and leave all of the rest of the parameter information intact - then I can extract the information I am interested in, call my custom functions, and then forward the call on to WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions.

NOTE: I am using jQuery to build my custom function, so if there is an easier way to do this with jQuery it is an option I will consider.

Here is the code I tried to replace the onclick event handler (not working):

$('[onclick*=WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions]').each(function() {
var txt = this.onclick;
txt = txt + '';
txt = txt.replace('WebForm_DoPostBackWithOptions','ml_DoPostBackWithOptions');
this.onclick = eval(txt);
});

Using alert(), I verified that the text is being changed correctly, however whether or not I use the eval() function, the onclick handler doesn't seem to recognize it as JavaScript.

I thought of using a regular expression to get the validationGroup value, but this seems like it will be far more elegant and flexible if I can get it working...

Note: If there is a way for my control to interrogate the page it is on to find all of the buttons that will post back (regardless of what type of buttons they are) so I can retrieve the property server-side, this is also something I will consider.

Web Forms :: Create RegEx Function That Would Retrieve Inner Html Of Div?

Sep 15, 2010

I have been trying for a long time to create regEx function that would retrieve inner html of div but still no luck. What I want to do is to retrieve inner html of div with specific class.

Suppose the input is

<body>
.....
<div class="Product"><div class="id">1</div><span>xyz - 1090<br>New Product</span><div>
<div class="Product"><div>2</div><div>
<div class="Product"><div>1</div><br><p>322</p><div>
...
</body>

As you can see inner html itself can contain div tag and have no fixed structure (though will have correct html structure - opening and closing tag). So, how to get the inner html of div with class "Product".
