Hi Niels,

Not sure if this is what you are asking, but ..

When I have text that has '<13,10>' in it, and I need to make it "html-nice", I use a StringTheory object to do the search and replace.

IE

Code: [Select]

st.Replace('<13,10>','<br/>',,,,,1)     !* the "1" being for the Recursive parameter *

Br does no occur inside <13,10> hence recursion is not required.  Stu, you are confusing recursion with just repeating -which is only limited by the count, start and end parameters.

My apologies Bruce.

It should read:

Code: [Select]

st.Replace('<13,10>','<br/>',st.Count('<13,10>'))

Hi Stu,

According to the docs at
http://www.capesoft.com/docs/StringTheory/StringTheory.htm#stReplace
the count parameter is optional.

so
st.Replace('<13,10>','<br/>',st.Count('<13,10>'))

becomes
st.Replace('<13,10>','<br/>')

which kinda just does what it says on the tin - replaces <13,10> with <br/>

Cheers
Bruce

Doh.

Just logged on here to say that I just discovered this, but you beat me to the punch.

I'm still living back when I thought you needed to specific how many times you had to replace.

New thing learned again because you told me this last year some time.
