Is there a simple function which will convert a HTML string (including parts such as metachachters into a plain string. Basically stripping tags and replacing metacharachters with their true visual value?
Does this exist in the .Net Framework, or will I hav to build it myself?
Thanks in advance.

You can use the System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode method to convert html entities to characters. You can use a regular expression to match the tags to remove them.
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

Hi All!
I am trying to create a basic media player, all i want it to do is: play, pause, stop, previous track, nest track, and also let me open multiple mp3 or wma songs and have them displayed in a listView control (the listview control will be acting as my playList). But, I'm having lots of trouble with the project. I can't figure out how to open multiple songs, and dislpay them in listview control. Can somebody please offer me some guidence or samp' code or something to get me started? I'd appreciate any advice/help from anyone, thanks for your time. 
Best Regards,
jt.

I am sure there are several examples at codeproject. A simple search should be able to find them.

Hi to all,
I have created an Custom UserControl (inherited from UserControl class).
2 Questions,
1. How to hide the (inherited) properties of that control? without using Browseable() property
I didn't get access to any class from System.Window.Forms.Design for ex. ControlDesigner even after adding it's reference
2. How to create usercontrol as serializable &/or deserializable? so that it's properties can be saved programmatically
Regards,
Aniket A. Salunkhe

No inherited property can be truly hidden. There are several ways to hide them from the designer, but they will still show up in intellisense.
Any derived class should implement anything in its base or call the bases own implementation.
The only true way to not have any properties apart from your own is to build your own from scratch without deriving from UserControl (or Control) or start with Component as it has no properties except Container and Site.
UserControl Inheritance Tree
----------------------------
UserControl : ContainerControl<br />
ContainerControl : ScrollableControl, IContainerControl<br />
ScrollableControl : Control, IComponent, IDisposable<br />
Control : Component, IDropTarget, ISynchronizeInvoke, IWin32Window, IBindableComponent, IComponent, IDisposable<br />
Component : MarshalByRefObject, IComponent, IDisposable
As you can see, there's alot of inheritance going on when you use UserControl

Can you explain me with example?
using System.ComponentModel;
class TestControl : Container
{
}
Here I am not getting interface for 'Site'.
|
|
|
|
|
using System.ComponentModel;
public class TestControl : Component
{
}
Derive from Component not Container. Any instance of TestControl only has two properties; Site and Container, unless you add more yourself of course.

First, what does it do? Second, what is it NOT doing?? Third, what do you EXPECT it to do??
Next, why are you not asking the person who wrote it? Found here...[^]
Lastly, why not use Outlook interop to do this instead.

hi
my project is hiding data in unused space in structured of microsoft word document 2003, and i founed that i must use structure storage API for accessing the Root ,header .......
so i wrote this code, this code trying to open Root(storage) so can enter o the header
using C# 2003, am asking hear for along time ..... wishing some one help me
Thanx

You're not going to get much space to make this useful. At least, not without corrupting a Word document. Besides, it's got a limited lifespan. Office 2007 and above now uses an open format XML file to store documents. There's no longer any place to "hide" data.
You may want to consider using alternate streams, but there's a catch. If you copy the file to a non-NTFS formatted device, the data in the alternate streams will be lost.
You're not getting any useful answers because the knowledge base out there is so limited. Noone, besides Microsoft anyway, delves into the old Word file formats for any reasons. It's very unlikely your ever going to find anyone with any experience with it.

Don't bet on it. A friend of mine completed his final year project on information hiding and he demonstrated the ability to hide a message by using the IP header to deliver the payload. That's an open standard too. It was a fascinating project.

How big is the payload? Last I heard, you couldn't fit anything much bigger than an SMS message in it.

256 bytes.
Dave Kreskowiak wrote: Last I heard, you couldn't fit anything much bigger than an SMS message in it.
The IP header (not TCP/IP) is only 20 bytes. It worked by virtue of the fact that a packet is about 1.5k and to download an average web page required that quite a few packets are sent. Each packet had a different part of the message. Once you had 256 packets you have the full message (at best). The algorithm used was quite clever becuase it took account of the fact that other things may be interacting with the server, so if you missed part of the message it would send it again.
The software on the client was just a .NET application using sockets in promiscuous mode. Each packet was then examined and the message was gradually pieced together. To get the data you just browsed the innocuous website on the server in your favourite browser.

Makes perfect sense. Obviously not to the subject of Word Documents but anyway, thanks Colin

I'm sure I've answered you before but I can't be bothered to look. You're persistant at least - I'll give you that.
A quick bit of Googling revealed this page[^] that gives you code in C to write and read.
You may need to build this yourself to a dll in C++ and then provide a c# wrapper to it.

If I want a button to be repainted permanently at the click of the same button, how can I do?
So far I have tried to send the button as sender after it has been clicked to the button's paint event. This only works to some extent, the repainting comes on but as soon as the mouse cursor leaves the button, the repainting wears off.
I am looking for a way to make the repainting stay on permanently.
|
|
|
|

This may seem like a silly answer (I never use the painting stuff and I'm really having trouble saying this without sounding like a prat), what's wrong with the background/foreground settings. Why are you trying to "repaint" it.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity
RAH
|
|
|
|
|
Not a silly question at all. I am trying to repaint it because the next course in school will have exercises where repainting in this manner is necessary. I am just trying to get prepared.
|
|
|
|
|
You really can't do this because your going to tie up the UI thread with constant WM_PAINT messages. You won't be able to do anything else in the application.
Perhaps a better explanation of what the point of repainting a button would help? And don't say "because that's what were doing in class"...
|
|
|
|
|
Sounds like you need to set a flag that you can test to see if your painting should be used everytime the control is Invalidated and test that flag in the overridden OnPaint.
This site[^] has some cool user button codes that you may find useful.
