how do I parse a textbox of text separated by carriage returns?

how do I parse a textbox of text separated by carriage returns?

I have a web form with a textbox, when the user presses submit I would
like to process the text in the textbox line by line. How can I
iterate through it line by line and do something on each line of text?

Thanks for any help,
Mike

Suppose that I have content that looks like what I've included at the end of this message. Is there something in the standard Python library that will help me parse it, break into the parts separated by the boundary strings, extract headers from each sub-part, etc? Do I need to add something like the following to the beginning? Content-Type: multipart/related; type="multipart/alternative";

I have a field in an access 2000 database that is actually three lines of text separated by carriage returns. Is there a function in the Access version of SQL that will let me locate the carriage returns and then split the field based on the positions of the carriage returns? Or do I need to process the field with Visual Basic? I seached for an answer to this on the web. I found an answer that

This seems like it should be easy, but I can't find the answer anywhere. I need to combine text fields from several different records into one text box for display purposes. Here's the code I'm using: (rstTable is a recordset) do until rstTable.EOF txtBox.text = txtBox.text & rstTable!Description & chr(13) rstTable.MoveNext Loop

The TextBoxes in ASP have a weird behaviour when it comes to handling carriage returns. You can try this : Create a Webform. On it, place a textbox, set it's TextMode property to MultiLine. Place a button. Double-click on the button and in it's event handler, just type : TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text ;

Using ASP.Net and VB.net I have textboxes (<asp:textbox id......>) in which the user will be entering paragraphs. They are multiline (several rows and several columns). The carriage returns that the user puts in (return/enter key) do not show up when the data is retrieved. It is one long line. Is there any way to make the user's paragraph divisions show up in the report?

Assumptions I am assuming that you know or are capable of looking up the functions I am to describe here and have some remedial understanding of C programming. FYI Although I have called this article “How to Parse a File in C++”, we are actually mostly lexing a file which is the breaking down of a stream in to its component parts, disregarding the syntax that stream contains. Parsing is actually including the syntax in order to make...

Using the MS Rich Textbox Control 6.0 in Access 2000, I need to concatenate several RTB controls into a single RTF file. Sometimes two strings will be side-by-side; other times they need to be separated by a hard return. For example, say I have the following 4 RTB controls in my form: RTB1 = "abcd" RTB2 = "efgh" RTB3 = "ijkl" RTB4 = "mnop"

Hi, I'm trying parse a text file I'm pulling into VB6, but am unable to do like I usually do (Line Input/Print) since the text file inserts two carriage returns at the end of each line instead of one. I think the program ends because it assumes the second line (which is blank line due to the second carriage return) is EOF. Any suggestions? I'm stumped. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I am trying to find an efficient way to perform a special query. Let me explain what I want. Let's say we are looking for all description that match "this is the target". In fact, I want to find records that match those 4 words in this sequence disregarding the number of spaces (I mean spaces, tabs, Cr, Lf, etc) between them.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
