Output first 250 characters of html file

Does anyone know how to output the first 250 characters of an
html file.
I am using a cfinclude to output the file but sometimes the
html is really long and there are other things on the page. I would
like to limit the html file to a certain amount of characters and
give the user an option to read the rest.
An example but this doesn't work would be <cfinclude
template="#left(file.htm, 250)#">. I know that does not work but
it would if the information were in a database.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

<cfsavecontent variable="mytext">
<cfinclude template="somepage.cfm">
</cfsavecontent>
<cfoutput>#left(mytext, 250)#</cfoutput>
you may also want to strip all html tags out of the mytext
var in order
not to have cf cut it in the middle of some tag and render it
in the output:
<cfoutput>
#left(trim(rereplace(mytext, "<[^>]*>", "", "all")),
250)#
</cfoutput>

Multiscreen HTML5: iPhone Output Not Built Correctly (Missing HTML Files)

I need expert help to resolve this issue. Hopefully, this issue will sound familiar to someone, and they can provide some guidance.
Since I started using RH10 a few months ago, I have delved into the details of Multiscreen HTML5 only as much as was needed to get the work done. I have an issue that has me flustered.
By default, I am building my help project for all platforms (iPad, iPhone, Desktop, etc.), with iPad selected as the Default. The iPad & Desktop help both work fine, no issues.
However, when I open the index.htm file in the iPhone folder, it opens the table_of_contents.html screen, which contains nothing but a search field. Additionally, many of the html files (that are in the iPad folder) are not being built for the iPhone folder (missing). When I look at the other folders (kindle_fire, or android_galaxy_tab for example) the files are all there and they work fine.
When I compare the HTML for the Table_of_Contents.htm files for ipad and iphone, they are identical except the default file for iPhone is home.htm instead of table-of-contents.htm. But when I change the HTML to make them identical, I still have the same problem. When I open, it jumps to the searchresults.htm screen instead of displaying the Contents.
When I wipe out the iPhone folder and rebuild it, the results are the same.
So, somewhere, somehow, I have evidently unknowingly either selected or deselected something that caused the missing sections to be excluded (or not be built).
I appreciate any help resolving this issue.
Thank you,
JimC

Yes. Each device can have different content. It could be that some topics have tags and that layout has an expression that is excluding them.

How to read my information from a html file?

Hi
I saved an html file from a website.
How can I read my information (For example the first URL) from the html file?
following code reads line by line:
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(Application.StartupPath + @"\x.htm"))
String line = String.Empty;
while ((line = reader.ReadLine()) != null)
MessageBox.Show(line);

How about this...
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Diagnostics;
namespace ReadFromHtml
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(Environment.CurrentDirectory + @"..\..\..\page1.html"))
String line = String.Empty;
while ((line = reader.ReadLine()) != null)
if (line.Trim().StartsWith("<a"))
Console.WriteLine(line.Trim());
break;
Console.ReadLine();

Printing the First 14 Characters of Every Line in a Text File

My text file looks like the following:

1111097116274, H00F0458F8110C006, 3, 16:48:12I want my java program to print the first 14 characters of every line. Here's what I have:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import java.io.*;
public class Read {
     public static void main( String args[] ) {
    try {
        BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("aFile.txt"));
        String line;;
        /*String tagid;*/
        while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) {
             char[] tagid = line.toCharArray();
             line.getChars(0, 14, tagid, 0);
             System.out.println(tagid);
        in.close();
    } catch (IOException e) {
         JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, "Error" );
         System.exit(0);
     Instead of printing the first 14 characters of every line to output, it prints the whole text file.
Any ideas of what's wrong?
Thanks.

Well, that's the thing with a highly tuned, precision engine like your mind, JosAH. Adding a little alchohol to the fuel mix provides a performance boost, but as the alcohol/fuel ration increases, the performance improvement peaks and then degrades, until the performance is actually reduced. Now, I understand that in the case of the magic Grolsch, this performance curve is shifted farther to the right (graphed with Grolsch count as the independent variable, and performance improvement as the dependent variable), but it still occurs.
I recommend nitrous oxide. You may need to get your piston heads hardened, though.

Create HTML file that can display unicode (japanese) characters

Hi,
Product:           Java Web Application
Operating system:     Windows NT/2000 server, Linux, FreeBSD
Web Server:          IIS, Apache etc
Application server:     Tomcat 3.2.4, JRun, WebLogic etc
Database server:     MySQL 3.23.49, MS-SQL, Oracle etc
Java Architecture:     JSP (presentation) + Java Bean (Business logic)
Language:          English, Japanese, chinese, italian, arabic etc
Through our java application we need to create HTML files that have to display unicode text. Our present works well with English and most of the european character set. But when we tried to create HTML files that will display unidoce text, say japanese, only ???? is getting displayed. Following is the code we have used. The out on the browser displays the japanese characters correctly. But the created file displays only ??? in place of japanese chars. Can anybody tell how can we do it?
<%
String s = request.getParameter( "txt1" );
out.println("Orignial Text " + s);
//for html output
String f_str_content="";
f_str_content = f_str_content +"<HTML><HEAD>";
f_str_content = f_str_content +"<META content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=Content-Type></HEAD>";
f_str_content = f_str_content +"<BODY> ";
f_str_content = f_str_content +s;
f_str_content = f_str_content +"</BODY></HTML>";
f_str_content = new String(f_str_content.getBytes("8859_9"),"Shift_JIS");
out.println("file = " + f_str_content);
          byte f_arr_c_buffer1[] = new byte[f_str_content.length()];
f_str_content.getBytes(0,f_str_content.length(),f_arr_c_buffer1,0);
          f_arr_c_buffer1 = f_str_content.getBytes();
FileOutputStream l_obj_fout; //file object
//file object for html file
File l_obj_f5 = new File("jap127.html");
if(l_obj_f5.exists()) //for dir check
l_obj_f5.delete();
l_obj_f5.createNewFile();
l_obj_fout = new FileOutputStream(l_obj_f5); //file output stream for writing
for(int i = 0;i<f_arr_c_buffer1.length;i++ ) //for writing
l_obj_fout.write(f_arr_c_buffer1);
l_obj_fout.close();
%>
thanx.

Try changing the charset attribute within the META tag from 'utf-8' to 'SHIFT_JIS' or 'utf-16'. One of those two ought to do the trick for you.
Hope that helps,

Selecting the first 4000 characters from a tag in an xml file

Oracle Enterprise Edition 11.1.0.7 64 bit (Jan 2012 CPU applied)
Windows 2003 64 bit
We have an XML file with the following sample format.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<HR>
<EMP>
<FNAME>JOHN</FNAME>
<LNAME>DOE</LNAME>
<COMMENT>Comment with less than 4000 characters</COMMENT>
</EMP>
<EMP>
<FNAME>JANE</FNAME>
<LNAME>DOE</LNAME>
<COMMENT>Comment with more than 4000 characters</COMMENT>
</EMP>
</HR>
The query below
(full disclosure: which I took from odie_63's response in Creating External Table using Xml Dataset - how to include null values? and added the CURSOR_SHARING_EXACT hint on the top)
works when the contents of the <Comment> tag are smaller than 4000 characters. If it is more than 4000 I get
ORA-01706: user function result value was too large
SELECT /*+ CURSOR_SHARING_EXACT */
FROM XMLTable(
'/HR/EMP'
passing xmltype( bfilename('DATA_PUMP_DIR','emp.xml'), nls_charset_id('CHAR_CS') )
columns
first_name varchar2(30) path 'FNAME',
last_name varchar2(30) path 'LNAME',
comments varchar2(4000) path 'COMMENT'
I found another query where someone was doing a substring (I think to get only the first 4000 characters from the tag) here.
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=14638197 (See OP's post)
TERMINATION_DATE VARCHAR(32) path 'TerminateDate/substring(text(), 1, 32)',
So I updated my query to be
SELECT /*+ CURSOR_SHARING_EXACT */
FROM XMLTable(
'/HR/EMP'
passing xmltype( bfilename('DATA_PUMP_DIR','emp.xml'), nls_charset_id('CHAR_CS') )
columns
first_name varchar2(30) path 'FNAME',
last_name varchar2(30) path 'LNAME',
comments varchar2(4000) path 'COMMENT/substring(text(),1,4000)'
The query runs without an error when the <comment> tag has 4000 or less characters but still errors out with it is more than 4000.
I found an alternative method to do the SUBSTRING here in Herald ten Dam's reponse in Re: A view over XML that is not 1:1
code varchar2(30) path 'substring(code,1,3)',
so I tried this:
SELECT /*+ CURSOR_SHARING_EXACT */
FROM XMLTable(
'/HR/EMP'
passing xmltype( bfilename('DATA_PUMP_DIR','emp.xml'), nls_charset_id('CHAR_CS') )
columns
first_name varchar2(30) path 'FNAME',
last_name varchar2(30) path 'LNAME',
comments varchar2(4000) path 'substring(COMMENT,1,4000)'
but that doesn't work either.
How can I extract the first 4000 characters of the <COMMENT> tag so that the query doesn't fail.
We are not using any other XMLDB features at this time. This is the first we've started looking into using Oracle built in XML features, so we might not have setup something that other's might know to specifically setup to start using the XML features in Oracle 11.1
Thanks in advance,
Wally

HTML FIle Output Error thru R/3

Hello All,
I have a HTML file on the SAP Server SMW0 Transaction in R/3.
The language of the HTML File is Spanish.
When i see the output from this transaction I'm getting the same content as in the HTML File.
But when I'm executing the file thru an ABAP Program I'm getting some junk values in the output screen.
But, when I chk the VIEW SOURCE Option of the same output ther the content is in the correct format.
Is this a unicode problem .
I can see a small code where the ANSI is specified.Instead of this can we specify any UTF or any unicode formats ?
mso-ansi-language:ES
Request u guys to help me out.
Regards,
Deepu.K

<i>>>>Which log file records this kind of error.....</i>
You can try the default trace files located in:
/usr/sap/<SID>/<DVEBMGS[XX]>/j2ee/cluster/server0/log
Also, perhaps something in the 'std_server[X].out' file within the folder
/usr/sap/<SID>/<DVEBMGS[XX]>/work
However, this gets overwritten with each restart unless you have configured the java engine to retain old log files in the instance profile (e.g. with parameter 'jstartup/keep_old_logfiles=3').

Thank you for your response.
So here is what i want to do.
Query a database using odbc from my management server (odbc is configured and connection is tested) and based on the query it will result out few list of servers. then from the same management server i want to execute a command against all the resulted server
(management server has a binary which can execute remote action). this remote action will get output back.
then i would like to store the name of server and resulte output in a html file which should look like below.
which i will later host on apache.
YOu do not need to move things in and out of arrays and files.
>>>> You are right but as i stated, i am not a core programmer and due to nature of my job i have to work on perl, shell and VB Script, apart from my actual technology so it becomes difficult to write it with perfection.
I hope you understand.

Calling html file within web.show document as a report output

/* this is blank html file included javascript for disabling mouse right click working fine*/
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('http://prod.artisticmilliners.com:8000/files/file.html','_blank');
/* this is oracle report output within model frame working fine*/
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('javascript:void(window.open("'|| URL || '","","location=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,status=no,"));self.close()','_self');
I want to add show report output with right mouse click disable. Pleae guide how can i do it?

Let me start by saying that disabling the right mouse will do nothing but frustrate users. It doesn't protect the page content from anything. There are various other ways to get the content from the page copied locally. And more importantly, this does not_ offer any kind of security.
Ok, so you have decided to do it anyway ;)
In order to make this happen, you would need to modify the report. I will assume that when you said "report" you meant Oracle Reports. Open the report file (.rdf) and edit the report's "Before Report Value".
The default value is:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=&Encoding">
</head>
<body dir=&Direction bgcolor="#ffffff">Change it to this:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=&Encoding">
</head>
<script language="javascript">
document.onmousedown=disableclick;
status="Right Click Disabled";
Function disableclick(e)
if(event.button==2)
alert(status);
return false;
</script>
<body oncontextmenu="return false" dir=&Direction bgcolor="#ffffff">Save the changes and retest.

Problem launching Firefox from Windows with file path that contains space characters in the html file's file name

We have a software application that programmatically launches the default web browser using the Windows shell execute function ("ShellExecuteA" in the "shell32.dll" library of the Windows API) along with a file path for a saved local html file that is to be displayed. In the case that FireFox is the default browser and the file path for the html file contains any space characters in the html file's file name, Firefox (in this case v7.01) will display an error message "File not Found..." and then will also proceed to open tabs for each of the individual words in the file name, launching as the URL path, each individual word appended to ".com".
In the following example, the path "C:\KSSecOfState\Forms\Kansas Secretary of State - Filings and Forms.htm" when launched programmatically, resulted in the error message "File not Found...Firefox can't find the file at /C:/KSSecOfState/Forms/Kansas." and opened up browser windows for "http://www.secretary.com/", "http://www.of.com/", "http://www.state.com/", "http://www.and.com/", and attempted to launch "http://forms.htm". If the same file (renamed) is launched using the path string "C:\KSSecOfState\Forms\KansasSecretaryOfState-FilingsAndForms.htm" the file opens up correctly in Firefox. Clearly the presence of spaces in the file name is causing the problem.
I should also note that either path (with or without space characters) works properly if pasted directly into the Firefox URL path menu bar for a live instance of Firefox. The test path strings I used were:
C:\KSSecOfState\Forms\KansasSecretaryOfState-FilingsAndForms.htm
C:\KSSecOfState\Forms\Kansas Secretary of State - Filings and Forms.htm
Does anyone know anything about this problem or how to work around it (other than the obvious answer of taking the spaces out of the file name which is not possible for this application). It seems the problem is specific to Firefox. IE works properly if launched programmatically with spaces in the file name passed to it. I haven't tested other browsers yet.
Thanks!

If starting from ShellExecute works the same as starting from the command line then there are two options:<br>
Put everything inside double quotes<br>
'''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\>'''firefox.exe '''"c:\test\svg test.htm"'''<br>
Convert to a valid url with file:// protocol and percentage-escaping the space<br>
'''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\>'''firefox.exe '''file://c:\test\svg%20test.htm'''<br>

UPK 3.1.5 player output - HTML file extention

Hello,
Does anyone know if it is possible to modifiy the HTML output in the Player deployment format? More specifically to change the filename suffix from HTML to HTM?
Thanks,

I believe you can edit the HTML file directly after it has been generated; however, when you re-publish, you might have a problem.

URGENT : Viewing HTML files & UNICODE characters

I do not know how to view HTML files in Java2. I have various HTML files which I would just like to display in the ContentPane of a Dialog Box.
Please let me know how should I do it.
Also, I have another question. How do I display Unicode characters like the alpha and the beta even after I know their hexadecimal values? I would like to display them as text on a JLabel. But the intended character doesnt appear. Instead, what appears is a black empty square in its place. Please let me know how to rectify this.

You can use JEditorPane to display HTML file.You can dislpay alpha and the beta characters by
jlabel.setText("\u03B1\u03B2");
where 03B1 is unicode value for alpha and 03B2 is unicode value for beta.
You can get unicodes for Greek from following link.
