RegEx To Strip HTML _AND_ Content Between Tags?
Oct 19, 2011
I'm trying to write a RegEx function that will remove all HTML tags AND the content in between.
I'm finding a lot of functions that will strip out JUST the tags (leaving the in between content), or will remove tags and content for specific tags only (or will allow only specified tags, removing all else.) But I can't quite seem to write a mask that will take out ALL HTML tags and their content.
Here is the mask I have now (fiftieth version of it, anyway):
Code:
/<s*[^>]*?>.+?</s*1s*>/gi;

I would like to strip HTML out of a string I have in a JSON item I have. I'm using Yahoo! Pipes to aggregate several blog-feeds and put them in together in one big feed, I then use jQuery to parse that JSON and place it onto my page. My issue is though that what's being parsed onto my page is the raw html code within the JSON item. I want any HTML related tags out of the item, so I just see text.

I'm recieving an HTML piece from wich I should get all the TD tags, for example, I recieve the following:
<tr>
<td>name</td> <td>surname</td>
</tr>
Then I must look for "<td>[anything]</td>" with a regex and and I build an array containing the text inside the tags, like
tags[0] = "name";
tags[1] = "surname";
So... I did this:
Code:
html = "<tr><td>name</td> <td>surname</td></tr>";
var reg = new RegExp('<td[^>]*>(.*)</td>', 'gim');
var matches = html.match(reg);
The problem is that I'm getting just ONE array element with the value:
"<td>name</td> <td>surname</td>"
instead of two values (on for name and another for surname).I testes a lot of different regex and also some string methods but I cannot make it work

I need some help creating some regular expressions that remove specific html tags...the script/expression will run when a button is clicked (i.e. "Remove Bold" button will remove <b> </b>).
currently I have these expressions working but they do not accomplish what exactly what I am after...Actually the functionality I'm looking for will incorperate both, however I can't seem to get it to work properly...
data.replace(/<[^>]+>/ig,"")+""); - this removes all tags (no matter what kind), I would like it to be a little less "greedy" and only remove specific tags.
i.e:
Input = <u><b>THIS IS SOME DATA</b></u>
Output= THIS IS SOME DATA
data.replace(/<(B|b)[^>]*>[^<]*(</B>|</b>)/ig,"")+""); - this removes bold tags and will leave other tags like <u> behind, exactly what I was looking for. However, it also removes the content/data that is wrapped in the tag.
i.e:
Input = <u><b>THIS IS SOME DATA</b></u>
Output= <u></u>
In the above example what I would like to happen is:
Input = <b><u>THIS IS SOME DATA</u></b>
Output= <u>THIS IS SOME DATA</u>
Any suggestions?

I need to parse an an HTML page and pull what ever values are in these JavaScript tags. There will usually be multiple tags with different values between the single quotes. The value in the next example I need to pull into my array would be 'A728'. Here is an example code..

I am trying to create an AJAX website. The content that will be updated is text description of the product. I am wondering how would I be able to add HTML tags within the content of my XML? For example, ProductA.XML:
Code:
<product>
<description>This product was inspired by <a href="jason.html">Jason</a></description>
</product>
To be clear, I am using AJAX to retrieve XML documents. The XML will be formatted via XSL. Is this the correct format?

When using a regular expression, is it possible to strip/remove anything that appears after a string that it finds?For example, if I use:mystring = mystring.replace(/night/gi, "");How can I remove anything that comes after "night"?So if it finds "night time" it only outputs "night".

I'm trying to write/find a regular expression for finding ampersands but not HTML entites.I have this which finds entities but can't figure out how to ignore entities and return unmatched "&"
&[^s]*;
Test string: This is sample test containing a bunch of & and entities. Do you shop at: M&S? &x#1234;
I want to HTML encode the non-entity ampersands for insertion into XML e.g.
"bunch of & and" --> "bunch of & and"

Is there a way to change html tags without touching the inner html? For example, changing all h4 elements to an h2. Maybe something like this? jQuery('h4').replaceWith('<h2>' + (this).html + '</h2>');

If there are multiple hyperlinks in a webpage, How do I recognize them using java script. Also How do I store the content of the hyperlink in a variable , so that the data stored in the variable will be used the query a database and populate results in another webpage For example there are many links in the webpage like this
<a href="update.php">text 1</a>.
<a href="update.php">text 2</a>
.
.
.
<a href="update.php">text N</a>
User can click any one of the hyperlinks in the webpage. If user clicks on hyperlink 'text4', text4 should be saved in a variable. Then pass the variable value to update.php , where database is queried using the statement "SELECT text4 from table sometable" and results are populated.

Is there some way to access an attribute to a tag that I've made up? Eg:
<INPUT type="text" name="phone" size=12 validate="area_phone_au">
I can get the type using:
document.formname.phone.type
But I don't seem to be able to access the 'validate' attribute:
document.formname.phone.validate
Anyone know if there's a way? If there's not, is there some other simple way
to specify validation information for a field? I could do something like:
<INPUT type="text" name="phone" size=12>
<SCRIPT> add_validation(document.formname.phone, "area_phone_au") </SCRIPT>
<INPUT type="text" name="state" size=4>
<SCRIPT> add_validation(document.formname.state, "format:AAA?") </SCRIPT>
The 'validate' function would then store the reference to the field and the
validation information. On submit, we validate all the fields by searching
all the references to see if they're in the form we want. (Have to work
that one out too!)
I'd prefer not to have to add script elements to do the validation. I'd
prefer to be able to store it in an attibute to the field. Of course I
could add it to an eventhandler for the field such as:
<INPUT type="text" name="state" size=4 onFocus="add_validation(this,
"format:AAA?")">
But that's still messier than I'd like it. Of course, all JS cases,
add_validation would have to check to see if it already knew about the
field!

The following is my javascript code to extend a form:
[Code]...
Everything works fine except for the counter/adding on to theName ( newField[i].name = theName + counter). I know exactly what the problem is... I just don't know how to fix it. If I remove the li tags, the counter will work fine and increment each "name". As soon as I put the li (see code above) tags back (or any html tag - I have tested others as well) - it breaks again and won't increment the name - it just submits the names without numbers and alas I have no usable post data. how to keep the html formatting there and still get the counter to increment the name?
