Removing Formatting info from a text var

I have an input text box for the user to input a name. This box is linked to the variable "name". However when I call up this variable later (by linking "name" to dynamic textboxes), the size color etc. of the font are carried over from the input text box. How would I go about removing this formatting info, so the variable is simply set to the letters typed in by the user?
thanks

I suggest getting rid of the use of the variable assignment of the textfield altogether and just assign an instance name to the textfield and acquire the text from the textfield using the "text" property. As you've already seen in one respect, using the var aspect of textfields can be problematic. I stopped using it many years ago, but not due to the problems you are having.

Remove HTML tags from a text area

Hi, here is my problem:
I have a form with a text area item; this item is “Display as Editor HTML standard”. So it is possible to enter formatted text with tags HTML. Then I save the text in a table. In the column the text maintain the HTML tags. Afterwards I can put the text in a report, and I can see the formatted text with the tags HTML interpreted.
But I need also to use that text for other aims, (i.e. sending it in a mail) with the html tags removed.
Is there any way to remove HTML tags from a text item?
Regards
Dario

How do I remove header info from .js without breaking?

Hello,
I've created a slider for Instagram using Dreamweaver. I am trying to remove the text info under the slider which shows it is housed under <header></header> tags in the .js file.
I've tried every which way from Sunday to try to remove the coding for the text, but end up breaking the entire thing.
Any .js experts available to take a look?
As always, your time and expertise is greatly appreciated.

open the js file jquery.instastream.js and find:
if(data.data[j].caption == null){var myCaption = '';} else{var myCaption = data.data[j].caption.text;}
if (data.data[j].comments.count < 2){var commentLabel = 'commentaire'} else {var commentLabel = 'commentaires'}

Is there a way to stop iCal moving address info from event text into 'location'??

Hi, I've just come back to the forum after a long time away, so sorry if this has already been covered, but...
When I create a new event in iCal and type in text which includes an address, the address segnment is automatically moved into 'location'. I find this infuriating as for work reasons I later need to copy and paste all the event text into another app, and the address is now in a different place! As an additional irritation, iCal also screws with the address text and switches the postal code into upper and lower case, so I have to re-type part of it when I move it back into the main event text. Any way to stop this happening? Thanks!

as far as i understand iCal it is on the "receivers/subscribers" side to deal with email-updates (and not on the "senders/changers" side):
snippet from my Re: How do you stop receiving notifications about updated calendar events?:
to NOT get email notification about updated events from a shared calendar you subscribed to you have to uncheck "events affect availability" in that calendars "info" (mac os X.7 and X.8: iCal —> calendars dropdown —> right click on the subscribed calendar —> choose "get info" from the context-menu —> uncheck "events affect availability")

How do you remove personal info from a dead AppleTV

I had my ATV die on me and was planning to replace the hard drive to fix it. Once I got into the machine, I hooked up the HD to my computer and it looked just fine so my conclusion was it is NOT the hard drive. I bought a new ATV and am wanting to sell the old one, but am concerned about the purchaser getting my iTunes account info off the hard drive.
Does anyone know how to remove that info without wiping out the HD? I know a HD without the ATV information reders the ATV pretty much useless. Would love any input. Thanks!

Winston Churchill wrote:
You're planning on selling the broken tv ?
Perhaps he's selling it for 'spares', but in that case I think I'd reformat the hard drive - presumably if it doesn't start up he can't factory restore, but even that wouldn't necessarily pt off a determined person sniffing for info with appropriate software.

Remove page number from PALT text

Hi,
I'm using transaction SO10 to create a PALT text (Applicant correspondence) and I would like to remove the page number of the header of the document. Do you have any idea of how to do it?
Thanks,
MForman

Goto SE71-> Utilities-> Copy from client->Give form name-SYSTEM, source client-000, target form ZSYSTEM than the form ZSYSTEM will create.
Again goto SE71 -> ZSYSTEM->change->goto header window, remove the page on the window text element.
Now goto SO10 give the standard text name and change -> goto Format->change form-> Assign ZSYSTEM.
Now your problem will resolve.
Every form related thing you need paragraph format, character format and layout.
For SAP-script there in build paragraph format and character format and for smartforms we need to create styles otherwise default style will assign.
For SAP standard texts you need to create both in different way i.e sap-sctipt style and sap-script form assign both to in SAP standard text
Thanks

Problem removing html tags from the text retrived

Hi there,
I am using jdbc to connect the database and retriving the data. In one of the columns along with the description there are some html tags in few of the recors of that column. is there a way to retrive the text only ignoring the html tags in between. Or can i retrive and then strip off the html code in the text to display only normal text.
example of the data retrived which are pipe seperated and one of the columns has html tags in it:
209|The euphoria |187945-2|http://www.abc/lst.jsp?mktgChannel=I86023&sku=18791-2&siteID=qpF0HYnRugA|http://www.abc.com/assets/images/product/medium/18793-2_198.jpg|Rooftop Singers: Walk Right In | abc Music proudly presents THE FOLK YEARS, an unforgettable era in music history!<BR><BR><B>Featuring:</B><BR>
<LI>The most complete collection of folk and folk-rock songs ever put together -- 132 classics!
<LI>Original hits by the original artists!
Now i need to remove the tags before displaying this on the output. Is there a simple way to do this.
Thanks...

Did you read the documentation of the trim() method,
where it describes which whitespace it removes?I believe his problem is that
"Some text here
<blah>
More text"becomes
"Some text here
More text"... and he wants ...
"Some text here
More text"So, your problem is that your regex isn't matching whitespace as well.
See the "Trimming Whitespace" section:

How to remove html-tags from a text.

Hello!
I have a text-field which I will remove html-tag's from.
Example:
"This is a test<br><p> and another test"
The function must return a similar text, but without the html-
tags <br> and <p> (in this case).
Anybody that can help me with this little problem?
Thanks in advance for any help :-)
Best regards

You can wait for some kind personal to post a complete code
solution... But if you want to fix this yourself (which is good
for the soul) here are some hints:
- You can use SUBSTR to get at chunks of text
- You can use INSTR to find particular characters.
- You can use INSTR as an argument of SUBSTR
Hence:
bit_of_text := SUBSTR(text, 1, INSTR(text, '<'));
chopped_text := SUBSTR(text, INSTR(text, '<'));
bit_of_text := bit_of_text||SUBSTR(chopped_text, INSTR
(text, '>'), INSTR(text, '<'));
will give you the first bit of text that doesn't contain any
angle brackets.
From this you should be able to work out how to functionalised
this (you'll need to store the offsets and use them in a loop
construct).
Note that this assumes that the text only contains the '<'
character when it's part of a HTML tag. If you can't guarantee
this then you'll have to explicitly search for all the tags e.g.
bit_of_text := SUBSTR(text, 1, INSTR(lower(text), '<p>'));
bit_of_text := SUBSTR(text, 1, INSTR(lower(text), '<br>'));
This will be a bit of pain. And completely rules out XML!

Remove non ASCII from a text loaded to a table

I would like to use SQLLDR to load a text file to a table.
But I would like to remove all non ASCII from the data either
1. During SQL LOAD
2. Or through a stored procedure.
Could this be done in Oracle?

I have done this on an insert trigger in the past, searching for ascii 0.
In my case it went someting like this:
FOR chr_indx IN 1 .. length(:new.problem_string) loop
IF ascii(substr(:new.problem_string,chr_indx,1)) = 0 then --search here for what you consider is a problem character(s)
--fix the problem
end if;
end loop;

Contact host (or someone) to remove erroneous info from post?

on this thread here I accidentally left a debugging line in the code (which happens to have my username in it). the next post by buddyjack2 copied the line, as well. is it possible to for someone to go in and delete the line that begins "set thisFolder to ..." (followed by an actual path specification), and delete or munge the path from buddyjack's subsequent post?
Sorry to post here, but I can't figure out how to contact a host from the interface or documentation given. this isn't a huge issue, of course, but it would be nice to get it resolved.
P.s. I should add that it's the post near the end that begins with "well, here's an alternate". the problematic line is line 7 in the first code block.

Can you display info from 2 text fields in 1 other text field in a form?

Im trying to make a form where you enter an address. I want that info to display in another part of the same form as well. When I get to the City and State, I want those to be 2 separate fields where you enter that info. Down below, I would like those to display in the same field with a comma separating. I want to do this mostly because you never know what the length of the city name will be and dont wan the state to be so far away to the right of the city jsut to compensate from possible long city names.
I know how to make it display those field in other parts of the form normally, just not how to double them up. I figured if the form was named "text1, text2" or "text1+test2", that might work but it didnt

Im thinking thats how im going to have to do it, i just want it to show up more like
RICHMOND, VA
instead of
RICHMOND VA
because some cities are way long and im a little crammed for space

HT201303 Remove billing info from iphone

How can i remove my billing information from the i phone itself if i no longer have a card?

Hi Frank,
You remove your billing information from your iTunes account - not your actual device. You have to sign onto iTunes on your computer, then go to Account Information, and edit the Payment Type.
Hope this helps!
