Hello,
I am trying to find some object/function able to take an HTML page
(code) as an input, strip out all images, stylesheets and other
external references, and returns "cleaned" HTML only (without external
references) or a text-only version of the page.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Seb

I would start with the HTML agility pack and se if it helps you. http://www.codeplex.com/Wiki/View.as...tmlagilitypack
If that fails, then a few well targetted regular expressions would do the
job I expect in findinf the offending parts. string.replace takes regular
expressions.

Hey Seb,
I don't know of a program or function that already does this kind of thing,
but you could implement it by using Regular Expressions
(System.Text.Re gularExpression s)

I'd second that, the Html Agility Pack is ideal for this sort of thing.
In fact, it includes sample code for converting HTML into plain text.

Hi,
This is a newbie's question. I want to preload 4 images and only when
all 4 images has been loaded into browser's cache, I want to start a
slideshow() function. If images are not completed loaded into cache,
the slideshow doesn't look very nice.
I am not sure how/when to call the slideshow() function to make sure it
starts after the preload has been completed.

Hi,
I would like to be able to read (parse) an html file into my Java program. Once I'm able to do this, I need to be able to analyse the html code.
If you could offer any help in meeting for first goal - parsing html files - I would be very grateful. Even if its a link to somewhere, or perhaps a book to read, that’s fine too.
Many thanks,
Firelli

I need to parse real world HTML/XML documents and I found two nice python
solution: BeautifulSoup and Tidy.
However I found pyXPCOM that is a wrapper for Gecko. So I was thinking
Gecko surely handles bad html in a more consistent and error-proof way
than BS and Tidy.
I'm interested in using Mozilla DOM from inside a Python script, however
I'm a bit confused about how can I use pyXPCOM to accomplish this job.

Hi,
I work at this company and we are re-building our website: http://caslt.org/.
The new website will be built by an external firm (I could do it
myself, but since I'm just the summer student worker...). Anyways, to
help them, they first asked me to copy all the text from all the pages
of the site (and there is a lot!) to word documents. I found the idea
pretty stupid since style would have to be applied from scratch anyway

I have been trying to figure out the best way to parse some chunks of html code that contain tables. I've been trying to do this with HTML::Parser and HTML::TokeParser and HTML::TokeParser::Simple, but I just can't seem to get everything working the way I want. The chunks are from a standard template so there is some structure to the data, but it is not that simple.
The problem:
There can be bare text before, after or between each table in...

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,...
