I want to use asp to do text find and replace with XHTML elements. for example, let's say I have the following XHTML:
<note>
<from id="123">Jani</from>
<to>Tove</to>
<message>Norwegian: æøå. French: êèé</message>
</note>
I want to read this document in, find and XML element with id="123" and replace its text with "New author".
Can I do this in ASP?
What I need to do is parse a string, then create variables for each word. Example:
- someone enters "cats and dogs" in the text field
- I need to end up with:
firstWord = "cats"
secondWord ="and"
thirdWord ="dogs"
Then I will use the variables firstWord, secondWord, thirdWord later in my app.
I have a text file that is the result of using XMLHTTP object to pull back a
page of search results from a search engine.
So I have the entire results page in HTML, and want to break out each hit
result from the text file as a unique item and do what I want with each hit
result.
Is there any suggested algorithms or any other techniques I could be
directed to?
In my main 'submit news' admin for a site I am doing, I want to be able to offer the person submitting the news the ability to reference other files within their text without the need to use HTML. My proposal is to use [square brackets] within the text that will then be parsed when the page is rendered from the database. At present I have this - e.g.
To download the file [file.exe, click here]. Which I want to render with the words 'click here' as being a link to file.exe. I'm very familiar with instr, replace and split (all of which I think I would need to use) but I cannot figure out how to parse the above text in the way I want.
Let's say that I have the string below:
<title>Partly Cloudy and 73 degrees F at Pitt-Greenville Airport, NC</title>
In an ASP file, how would I get the three characters before the word "degrees"? In this particular case, it would be "73 ". Obviously, I'm trying to extract the degrees from this weather string (which is from the National Weather Service, in case anyone is wondering). If anybody knows a better way to get the degrees information from this string.
EDIT: Nevermind. I found that the National Weather Service also offers an XML version that has the degrees totally separated. (The one above is from an RSS feed rather than straight XML.) Having it in this form makes it much easier to parse.
I know this is a little off topic, but this is the best resource I know of for anything coding related.
I'm needing to read through a text file that will have the following format:
c:ools
c:docs
c:htdocs
And have the the results put in an array for later processing. What I'm trying to build is a small vbscript that will automatically backup each path that may be in a given txt file.
Does anyone know of an ASP (VBScript) that can function as a Yahoo Group

popular forum software I've looked at, such as Snitz, can't handle it.
I have just upgraded my win98SE pc to winxp home. I am aware that PWS won't work with xp home, and I need to upgrade to XP pro for IIS. Problem is that I don't really want to upgrade unless I have to.
I've been investigating the various server options available. I need to run .asp scripts and connect to access 2000 databases. I'm not sure what servers will do this as the documentation is never that clear. Will Apache do what I want, and is there a duffers guide to getting it running?
I know this is a very commonly asked question, but I can't find a solution
anywhere that I have looked.
I need to take the text that will be typed in paragraph form by the user
(textarea field) and do two things with it:
1. Store it in a SQL Server database field
2. Send it in an email upon page submit.
Of course, single quotes have caused problems, so I have this code:
strInternalDesc =
Replace(Trim(Request.Form("InternalDesc")),"'","''")
Problem is, it shows up like this in the email that is sent:
==============================
We''re in the process of
==============================
I would like to get rid of the double apostrophes, but not sure how. Went to
an article on ASPFAQ, and saw something which directed me to do this:
strInternalDesc =
Replace(Trim(Request.Form("InternalDesc")),"'",chr(34))
However, that just makes it a regular double-quote. I guess I could try and
find out what the character number for apostrophes are, but not sure where
that is. Besides, will that mess up my SQL Server or the email if I do that?
Can anyone recommend a CyberCash replacement for ASP(x)?

View Replies View RelatedI'm interested in creating an asp function that enables the general parsing of xml. The function needs to take into account the structure of the xml document, as the document(s) can be quite complex.
The use of getElementsByTagName() is not appropriate in this case as I'm trying to avoid picking up the wrong data. The function also needs to be able to test if a node has any attributes and what the attributes are. Here's an example of the document I'm trying to parse: Code:
ASP
I have
value(0) = 1
value(1) = 2
value(2) = 3
value(3) = 4
etc...
I need to have as output
1,2,3,4 ...
Finnaly I must submit that to 2nd asp page, and use it inside the javascript. Any ideas?
I do a regular HTML form POST to a third party server. The server processes the request and displays result in XML format. However, I need to parse this xml and display in HTML.

View Replies View RelatedI need to use forum code for my site, and making things bold, etc, is very easy however, I cannot work out how to use the tags [*url]http://site.com[/*url], the asterix will avoid it being parsed to create links.
I want to be able to get the text between the two URL tags, and build a link, so <a href=""" & textinbetween & """>" & textinbetween & "</a>".
How can I parse it so that I can just get:
/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=5
I can get /newthread.php with script_name, but I'm not sure how to get the whole string.
is there any way that i could get the value from field (the value will be used in SQL statement) without submit the form coz if i use Request.form("name"), it need to submit the form to get the value.

I have a string problem that I would like to resolve. I am submittting multiple values to a form that is posted to query string. The string looks like this:
http://localhost/csiapp/test.asp?Submit=Submit&menu2=436%A0AbdallahFadi&menu2=430%A0AdkinsAngela&menu2=425%A0AleemAmina
So what I need to do is to take the id number of the user and put it into an array so I can later insert it into the database. So for the example above, I need an list that looks like this:
436, 430, 425
Once I have this list I can make it an array and then put it into the database.
My question is how do I make the string above look like the string below? I know that I need to use some function of asp to parse the name oout of the string, but i just don't know exactly what....
I have searched on parsing some strings but I don't know how to apply it to my string. The string I am parsing looks like: $$1,0,0,0,0,0,7,8,0,0,0,0,13,14,0$$None
What I am looking to do is get the non-zero numbers.
I will then use these for another portion of the page where checkboxes corrosponding to those numbers will appear and the zeero numbers will not. The string after the last two $$ must be used as well for text on the page. I can change the string to look however
is easiest to parse.
I have a select statement that gives me the following results (for example) "test documentation/software product version document.doc" I need to parse the data to only grab everything between the "/" and ".".
