Removing HTML Comments from an entire website

Hi, I wonder if there is a simpler way to remove 'HTML Comments' from an entire website without having to use the regular expression '  ' using Find & Replace in DW 8? Many thanks, Simon

Thanks Murray, - I guess I was hoping for a 'button' in DW 8 that offered this function without writing a simple regular expression that works just fine. What laziness! My reasons for removing my HTML comments also puts me in a bad light!!! Best wishes, Simon

How to remove HTML tags from a String ?

Hello,
How can I remove all HTML Tags from a String ?
Would you please to give me a simple example ?
Best regards,
Eric

Here's some code I cooked up. I have created an object that processes code so that it can be incorporated directly into a project. There is some redundancy so that the it can be used in more than one way. Depending on your situation you might have to make the condition statement a little more sophisticated to catch stray ">" tags.
I have also included a Tester application.
//This removes Html tags from a String either by submitting the String during construction and then
// calling getProcessedString() or
// by simply calling " stringwithoutTags=removeHtmlTags(stringWithTagsSubmission); "
//Note: This code assumes that all"<" tags are accompanied by a ">" tag in the proper order.
public class HtmlTagRemover
 private String stringSubmission,processedString,stringBeingProcessed;
 private int indexOfTagStart,indexOfTagEnd;
 public HtmlTagRemover()
 public HtmlTagRemover(String s)
 removeHtmlTags(s);
 public String removeHtmlTags(String s)
 stringSubmission=s;
 stringBeingProcessed=stringSubmission;
 removeNextTag();
 return processedString;
 private void removeNextTag()
 checkForNextTag();
 while((!(indexOfTagStart==-1||indexOfTagEnd==-1))&<indexOfTagEnd)
 removeTag();
 checkForNextTag();
 processedString=stringBeingProcessed;
 private void checkForNextTag()
 indexOfTagStart=stringBeingProcessed.indexOf("<");
 indexOfTagEnd=stringBeingProcessed.indexOf(">");
 private void removeTag()
 StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer("");
 sb.append(stringBeingProcessed);
 sb.delete(indexOfTagStart,indexOfTagEnd+1);
 stringBeingProcessed=sb.toString();
 public String getProcessedString()
 return processedString;
 public String getLastStringSubmission()
 return stringSubmission;
public class HtmlRemovalTester
 static void main(String[] args)
 String output;
 HtmlTagRemover h=new HtmlTagRemover();
 output="The processed String: "+h.removeHtmlTags("<Html tag>This is a test<another Html tag> string<yet another Html tag>.");
 output=output+"\n"+" The original string:"+h.getLastStringSubmission();
 System.out.print(output);

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

Way to remove HTML tags from a page-scoped attribute using JSTL?

Hi,
I'm using JSTL 1.2 with Tomcat 6.0.26. Does anyone know of a way to remove HTML tags from a page attribute, "${myExpr}". I would prefer a solution that uses JSTL only, but ultimately whatever gets the job done is fine with me.
Thanks, - Dave

I'm sorry, I don't understand your requirement. What do you mean by "remove HTML tags from a page attribute"?
If you are dealing with a value of an attribute, it is most likely a String, and should be treated as such. The best approach would probably be java coding.

How to remove html tags from a column

Hi
Problem is this: I get a column with a comma separated list of id's and I can successfully parse these id's and use them elsewhere. BUT, occasionally there are html tags within that id list like this:
1082471,1237423 
Is there a way to just automatically remove all tags from a column? Could do this with regex, but since there is no support, I don't know what to do.

Hi,
If the HTML can be detected by a starting symbol like „<“, then you could use the following:
Unfortuntely the operation “ReplaceRange” is only available on a Text-level, so you have to invoke a function (at least to my knowledge). You also need an Index-column in your table, so if you don’t have it, you need to create one as well.
This is your function:
let
 fnRemoveHTML = (Value, Index) =>
let
 Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Tabelle1"]}[Content],
 IndeNo = Index,
 Value_ = Source{IndeNo-1}[Value],
 length = Text.Length(Text.From(Value_)),
 position = Text.PositionOf(Text.From(Value_), "<"),
 range = length-position,
 new= if Value_ is number then Value_ else Text.ReplaceRange(Value_, position, range, "")
in
 new
in
fnRemoveHTML
And this is how you invoke it:
let
 Quelle = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Tabelle1"]}[Content],
 Last = Table.AddColumn(Quelle, "Custom", each fn_RemoveHTML([Value], [Index])),
 ChangedType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Last,{{"Custom", type number}})
in
 ChangedType
Provided your table is called “Tabelle1” & the column with your values to be replaced “Value” & your index-col “Index”

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 and another test"
The function must return a similar text, but without the html-
tags and (in this case).
Anybody that can help me with this little problem?
Thanks in advance for any help :-)
Best regards
Kjetil Klxve

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), ''));
bit_of_text := SUBSTR(text, 1, INSTR(lower(text), ' '));
This will be a bit of pain. And completely rules out XML!

I've got an AppleScript but it doesn't remove all the code

Inserting HTML comments from the Insert menu

So I understand that the insert menu has been changed in CS6 and then again in CC (Dreamweaver 12.2).
http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/changes-insert-options-creative-cloud.html
I am using DW CC. I want to insert HTML comments quickly in a bunch of different locations in my page code. Is there a way to do that?
If this must now be done by hand I would like to know why. The reason for the changes is explained as removing support for deprecated elements, but HTML comments are not deprecated in HTML 5.
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/syntax.html#comments

There is another option. Select the block of the code and choose the comment option as per your requirement. See image below.

Remove HTML tags from a string

I have a string that contains a couple of HTML or XHTML tag, for example
lv_my_string = 'Hello World!'.
For a special use case, I want to remove all HTML from that string and process only the plain text

Is there any method, function module, XSLT or anything else for that already?

How to remove HTML encoding from csv file using powershell

Hi guys i am exporting data from a sharepoint list using powershell which works fine. My problem is that some of the fields contain HTML mark up. Is there a way to remove all of the html mark up from the array before writing it to csv ?
I have tried playing about with System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode but with no luck the code runs but no html is removed.
Below is a sample of my script.
Set-Variable HOME $env:USERPROFILE -Force
(Get-PSProvider FileSystem).Home = $HOME
if(-not(Get-PSSnapin | where { $_.Name -eq "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell"}))
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell;
# imports assembly needed for url stuff to do
Add-Type -AssemblyName System.Web
$SPWeb = Get-SPWeb "http://site url"
$SPList = $SPWeb.Lists["List Name"]
$exportlist = @()
$SPList.Items | foreach {
$obj = New-Object PSObject -Property @{
"Employee full name" = $_["EMPLOYEEFNAME"]
"Employee login name" = $_["EMPLOYEENAME"]
"Department Name" = $_["DEPARTMENT"]
System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode("OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_0") = $_["F1_S4a_OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_0"]
"OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_1" = $_["F1_S4a_OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_1"]
"OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_2" = $_["F1_S4a_OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_2"]
"OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_3" = $_["F1_S4a_OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_3"]
"OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_4" = $_["F1_S4a_OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_4"]
"OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_5" = $_["F1_S4a_OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_5"]
"OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_6" = $_["F1_S4a_OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_6"]
"OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_7" = $_["F1_S4a_OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_7"]
$exportlist += $obj
$exportlist | select "Employee full name", "Employee login name", "Department Name", "OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_0", "OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_1", "OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_2", "OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_3", "OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_4", "OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_5", "OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_6", "OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_7" | Export-Csv ~/Export.csv -noType
$SPWeb.Dispose()
any help would be much appreciated.

Should have googled before posting !
"OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_0" = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Utilities.SPHttpUtility]::ConvertSimpleHtmlToText($_["F1_S4a_OBJECTIVESTOBEACHIEVED_0"],-1) -replace '\s+', ' '
Clears all the additional white space. As always jrv you
have saved the day, many thanks for all the help.

Removing index.html from home page / remove .html tags from all other pages

Hello All,
I was wondering if there is a way to remove the index.html from my main page, so that www.mypage.com/index.html is simply www.mypage.com/. This also applies to all the other pages in the site, but only for the .html extension: www.mypage.com/contact.html becomes www.mypage.com/contact. Almost all sites I know do this, but I can't figure out the technique beyond working some crazy voodoo with Apache.
Thanks in advance for your help!

if 'index.html' is in your HOST server's default filename list, then you can omit its name from any link, e.g.,
<a href="/">Home</a>
That link will cause the server to load the default file found in the root folder of the site.
This is actually the preferred way to link to your home page.

Remove HTML tags from String

it sounded prettty easy..
I know the first part of my String is <html><center> and the last part is </center></html>
but for saving it into the database I want to remove the HTML parts..
I know how much characters the html stuff is.. I know what the html is.. how do I remove it from my string?

If your String always starts with <html><center> and always ends with </center></html> you can use:
 int startLength = "<html><center>".length();
 int endLength = "</center></html>".length();
 String withoutHtml = myString.substring(startLength, myString.length() - endLength);
