is it possible (i heard u can replace) to filter out bad words using regexp? I'm using Replace() but it sucks without ALOT of extra code... but using regexp it seems better, with ignorecase, etc.
How would I do it? O, here's the way it is now:
<%= Decode(ChkBadWrds("Comment")))%>
How would I do something similar using regexp?
I am looking for a REgExp (or function) that will check a URL is entered in correctly

I have a string which is an html document - I want to eliminate all the <script>blah blah</script> tags. I can't seem to get the regexp pattern right. Here's where I've got to:Code:

oReg.Pattern = "(<script[.
]*</script>)"
Set oMatches = oReg.Execute(sHTML)
For Each oMatch In oMatches
sHTML = Replace(sHTML, oMatch.Value, "")

I am trying to write an asp(vbscript) parser for wiki-style pseudo code, and
can't get my head round regexp.
I am hoping if somebody could give me an example to work on for one, I could
sort the others.
e.g. how do you turn (from within a large string, with varying occurences)
.......[image:/mydir/pics/my portrait.jpg | A picture of me]......
into
......<img src="/mydir/pics/my%20portrait.jpg " alt="A picture of me">.....
I'm struggling trying to get the concepts of the regExp function down....
What i'm trying to achieve is to remove all white space from html formatted
source code.
I have the following regExp search string to remove all html source code but
that is not what i require.. RegExp.Pattern = "<.*?>"
I want to store all html source code and its text/image contents into a DB.
For that reason i want to remove all line breaks and spacing/tabs within the
source code so as to only have one exteremely long single line leaving the
formatting of the contents of the html code alone all so that i can stuff
into a varchar(MAX) field.
what is the syntax for parenthesis? but i don't want to allow <> or / like S would (if i understand that correctly). would i use ascii then, as in: x40 and x41?
View Replies View RelatedPremise: Inserting data into a database form a <textarea> and
displaying this data through an HTML page.
When inserting data into a database via a text area and then displaying
this data any carriage return that was entered into the database was
lost. I Created a function to replace a carriage return with a <BR>. I
call this function when I display this data.
If I enter text inside <> into a database and then display this data,
any text that was within the <> is lost because it is considered an
HTML tag. How can I search the string for the brackets and actually
diplay them? I do not want to use Server.HTMLEncode before I insert the
data into the database. This is because we often query the database
from outside a web browser.
Here is my function I have for the carriage return. I need to figure
out how to accomplish this for both < and >. I am sure this is simple
but I do not know what the .pattern should be (for a carriage return it
is "
".
SET regQuote = New RegExp
regQuote.pattern = "
"
regQuote.global = True
catchCR = regQuote.Replace(strText, "<br>")
I have a bit of code that replaces all links in my forums with hyperlinks. I'd like to add [url=www.sitehere.com]Link[/url] BB Code links to my forums. This is difficult to word, but how do you specify for RegExp to skip links if they are in [url] tags.

I just realized that it's so important to validate each string, I mean
'each' before you insert data from asp page into database.
I guess some customers just copy data from some electronic document and
paste intoform field which it will probably mess up the program.
for example, we have a customer who wants to enter AH12345 into one of our
fields, it appears Ð?Ð?12345 in hidden field of our asp page, but it displayed
AH12345 to the customer, but our program failed because of the data does fit
into char field in sql database.
I don't know in reality, how other companies deal with those kind of thing.
Do I have write our own regExp to validate each string, since we do need to
allow apostrophe or "-" in first name or last name.
I am trying to use the RegExp object to alter a string by a specifec pattern.
my string will be something simillar to this:
str = "bla bla <p> another bla <p class='row1'> bla"
I want the pattern that I give the RegExp object return all the "p" tags, that meens, in this example, "<p>" & "<p class='row1'>".
I wrote this code in ASP but the required results are not returning: Code:

View Replies View RelatedI need to truncate a news article to only show a certain number of characters on the front page. the news articles often contain html and the characters in the html are being counted. So, even though I want the text to be truncated at, say, 350 characters, the final result on the page looks like it's been truncated way further up, because the text of the html added to the character count.
here's the code i'm using to truncate
URLFunction ChopLastWord( Line, Length )
If Len(Line) < Length Then
ChopLastWord = Line
Exit Function
End If

I'm trying to solve three minor problems with vbscript REGEXP.
1) I want to find any occurences of and|or|not in a string and capitalize them.
regEx.Pattern = "(s)(and|or|not)(s)"
KW = trim(regEx.Replace(KW, "$1" & ucase("$2") & "$3"))
how come this is not working?
2) when highlighting words (in a search results page for example), I want to match the word ignoring case. however, when wrapping the word in highlighting code and replacing the substring, I want to keep the original capitalization.
regEx.Pattern = "(^|s|[^a-z0-9])" & highlitetemp(iTemp) & "(s|$|[^a-z0-9])"
Body = trim(regEx.Replace(Body, "$1<span class=highlite>" & highlitetemp(iTemp) & "</span>$2"))
for example, if the word to match is marvelous, but the word is stored uppercase in the db, the above code will replace the word with a lowercase version. how do I get around this?
3) I want to remove any and|or that are not inside double quotes in a string. for example,
test = """The dog and the cat""" & " and fox or mouse " & """the cat and the dog"""
resulting in "The dog and the cat" and fox or mouse "the cat and the dog"
I would like to remove only the AND OR linking fox and mouse in the middle of the string. how would I do that?
I have used:
set typ = server.createobject("Scriptlet.TypeLib")
to create a random string of 36 characters. However, is there a way to
create a random string of digits in the length I request? Perhaps a string
of 20 digits with a few asterisks thrown in for ease of typing?
for example:
4515-81301-75454-45136-1
Would this be reated with RegExp? And how?
let's say that I want to highlight some words or even a square of a table in yellow...how would i go about doing that? What code would work to do what I need?

i am having trouble getting my REPLACE fn. to replace whole words only. basically, i'm running a 'spelling checker' fn. that uses the REPLACE fn. to find incorrect spellings and replace them. problem is, the fn. seems to replace all instances of a string, and not a whole word only as I intend it to be:

StrInput = Trim(StrInput)'trim all empty space b4 & after string

It's not my website so I've been learning a lot, especially since I'm fairly new to coding and webdesign. So keep in mind, I'm just a newb.

This site I'm working on has all kinds of directories and allows certain people within a company to upload files to certain directories. I've got a .asp file that shows all of the content providers for all directories in a table.
I want to make it so that in my directorylist.php file there's a button that will allow a user to click on this "View Content Providers for this Directory" button and it will read/filter this asp file, and spit out a list of only the users who have authority to upload files to that particular directory that the user is looking at.
Is there some way to link the two files to do that? Or is it just a change I need to make in the loop in the asp file or perhaps a change in the php file? I'll provide a piece of code from the .asp file. Code:
On my page i run a SQL query that selects certain records from the database,
Is there any way to select a specific record from the recordset then another one. e.g. say i run a SQL that picks up all records with ID < 30 and then i want to pick one with an ID of 1 and then one with an ID of 4 without re-running the SQL query?
I had an sql statement like 'WHERE MID(id,4,1) = 3' but when I try to use the filter method it returns the error:
'Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.'
rs.filter = "MID(id,4,1) = 3"
Thats what its supposed to look like right
I've used Rs.Filter several time sin my code and they all work fine. However when I use
Code:
Rs.Requery adAsyncExecute
Rs.Filter = DateDiff("n",lastedit,NOW) < 15
I get
Quote:
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0bb9'
Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another. Am I typo'ing something or can I just not use DateDiff in a filter?
wondering if its possible to have some kind of searched word highlight! IE. every thing it throws up in return of search it will highlight why it has brought it up! so if search "a" all "a" in return results would be highlighted.
