View 1 RepliesUsing vb.net 2005/asp.net I thought I had the issue solved: I have some strings with spanish characters such as "ñ" and I need to replace characters with their non-spanish equivalent, ex: the example I just mentioned would be changed to "n".
[Code]....
when I put a breakpoint I see that usually my code replaces the characters the way that I want and all is good but some replacements are not working well and looking at my breakpoint it appears that there are non-readable characters that are included with the spanish characters and it seems that I need to do some kind of normalization on the string but not sure what to do. I have a text "caroliné" that i processing and in the code above it appears to replace the last char with an "e" but when I return the value from the function I am able to see some non readable characters (appearing on my watchlist as a small square) and the resulting string is actually "carolina" which is confusing.

My daabase has lots of german characters stored. While I read it from DB and display it in the gidview, everything is fine. The Gridview displays the german characters perfectly in the browser.After the display phase, when I read the data from the gridview as gridview.rows[1].cells[2].text, I get some special characters - But the gridview shows the text as 'ä' in the first row, second column. But while reading it back it givesä

View 1 RepliesI have a WebForm search page that gets occasional hits from international visitors. When they enter in text, it appears to be plain ASCII a-z, 0-9 but they are printed in bold and my "is this text" logic can't handle the input. Is there any easy way in ASP.NET to convert unicode characters that equate to A-Z, 0-9 into plain old text?

Recently I started a project and added a HTML file in it. I modified the HTML file and run it in Visual Studio to see the output. When I tried to validate the HTML file, I found some strange characters got appended. This is quite annoying, although I am not able to see those unexpected characters, I wonder what is the cause of the problem. I didn't adjust anything in control panel of the IIS server, I didn't modify the Web.config file. I tried to add another HTML file and put the same content into it, the same problem occured. Could someone tell me how should I troubleshoot the problem?

View 4 RepliesThere are lots of questions on how to strip html tags, but not many on functions/methods to close them.
Here's the situation. I have a 500 character Message summary ( which includes html tags ), but I only want the first 100 characters. Problem is if I truncate the message, it could be in the middle of an html tag... which messes up stuff.
Assuming the html is something like this:
<div class="bd">"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. <br/>
<br/>Some Dates: April 30 - May 2, 2010 <br/>
<p>Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. <em>Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit</em> in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum. <br/>
</p>

<a href="http://www.somesite.com" title="Some Conference">Some text link</a><br/>
</div>
How would I take the first ~100 characters or so? ( Although, ideally that would be the first approximately 100 characters of "CONTENT" ( in between the html tags )
I'm assuming the best way to do this would be a recursive algorithm that keeps track of the html tags and appends any tags that would be truncated, but that may not be the best approach.
My first thoughts are using recursion to count nested tags, and when we reach 100 characters, look for the next "<" and then use recursion to write the closing html tags needed from there.
The reason for doing this is to make a short summary of existing articles without requiring the user to go back and provide summaries for all the articles. I want to keep the html formatting, if possible.
NOTE: ignore that the html isn't totally semantic. This is what I have to deal with from my WYSIWYG.
EDIT:
I added a potential solution ( that seems to work ) I figure others will run into this problem as well. I'm not sure it's the best... and it's probably not totally robust ( in fact, I know it isn't ),
I'm looking at some site code on an XHTML doctype and from what I'm seeing the framework is ASP.net. The IDs in the HTML has a "$" in there. For example:
<img id="$ct100templateContent$SectionPanel1$ctl01$ctl02ctl00_templateContent_SectionPanel1_ctl01_ct999img" src="this.jpg"/>
From a W3C semantic point of view the "$" is not valid in an ID or Class. IDs and classes can only contain alpha numeric characters in an XHTML doctype.
Is the the "$" a ASP.net naming convention referencing a web control or template item?
I have an asp.net / C# page which takes a comment, and then emails that comment. Sometimes when the user enters "&" in the comment, the comment is being truncated. So for example if the comment is "test & test" the email only sends out "test ".
I have tried HttpUtility.HtmlEncode - but it looks like the issue is on the outlook side and not on the C# side.
how do I go about inserting into a database special characters such as the uppercase O, umlaut Ö Please understand that I have been able to insert the special character from inside MMS by putting an N in front of the value but when I run the SQL file from inside an ASP.net 4.0 page it comes up as a diamond with a question mark in it
View 12 RepliesI currently trying to convert a ASP.NET MVC2 application to ASP.NET MVC3 razor. I have a lot custom Html helper methods, which render html output, like the one below, which renders a button with some markup :
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("<input type='submit' id='") .Append(buttonId) .Append("' name='" ) .Append(buttonId) .Append("' value='") .Append(buttonValue) .AppendLine("' class='myclass1 myclass2' />");return MvcHtmlString.Create(sb.ToString());
right my issue is creating a MailFormat.Html hyperlink which includes a string which exists on a .aspx page. The problem i am having is that the hyperlink i created is only active in MS Outlook 2007 and i need it to be active for all versions. I'm unsure of how to create an active hyperlink which has 'strSRFNo' in the hyperlink name. i will paste my code in to explain it a bit better.
[Code]....
String strBody3 is where the hyperlink is. I would like to make this into a html active hyperlink and include the string at the end of the link.
I am outputting the content of a page from a subroutine. The weird thing is, the code behind is writing this to my aspx page. <asp:Hyperlink ID="HyperLink1" runat="server" CssClass="HoverMenuText">more</asp:HyperLink>
When the page is viewed live, the hyperlink is not a hyperlink because using the browser to "View Source", the html shows the exact same line! It wasn't converted to the format like "<a id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_HyperLinkHover">HoverMenuTest</a>" So for some reason, the server is not converting this asp control to an html control. Any ideas why it wouldn't do that?
I have a Master.aspx and a Page1.aspx and Page2.aspx, all in the same directory.
Master:
<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="Page1.aspx" runat="server" Text="Page 1" />
<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl="Page2.aspx" runat="server" Text="Page 2" />
both the Page1 and Page2 gets rendered from above master page.
all three are in a vertual directory which is mapped as a subdomain here are the details:
Virtual Drectory: dirvir
Domain: dirvir.example.com
now when I open any of the page say:
http://dirvir.example.com/Page1.aspx
the Hyperlinks are rendered containing
href="../virdir/Page1.aspx"
href="../virdir/Page2.aspx"
respectively.
On click of them it takes me to
http://dirvir.example.com/dirvir/Page1.aspx
http://dirvir.example.com/dirvir/Page2.aspx
where as I wanted it to be
http://dirvir.example.com/Page1.aspx
http://dirvir.example.com/Page2.aspx
I can achive the same by using <a> but i need them on the code behind too so thats not desired.
Note: using <a> with runat server also behaves in the same way HyperLink does.
I have a HyperLink on my usercontrol in which I set onlick event dynamically on the server side like this:
this.Attributes["onclick"] = string.Format("javascript:alert('{0}')", base.NavigateUrl);
The problem is that when Asp.net renders the page, it ends up with something like this
<a href='...' onclick="javascript:alert('TEST')>LINK</a>
which obviously is not valid Javascript. Using " instead of ' wouldn't help neither, the generated HTML is alert("TEST")
I have a form that a user fills out and can input html or other text into a textarea. I have the validaterequest attribute set to false on the page. However, when I submit the form with any html characters it bombs saying that it detected the potentially dangerous request field and to make validaterequest=false. I've already done this so I'm not sure why it's not working. I've done this many times before and never had this problem. Anyone run into this before and if so, is there a fix? I don't want to update my web.config and apply it site wide.
View 1 RepliesLine 44, Column 69: there is no attribute "AlternateText" You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).
This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information.
How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute. If you received this error when using the <embed> element to incorporate flash media in a Web page, see the FAQ item on valid flash. I can't figure this out.
