Sir;
text/html is not a ratio its a reponse type

I think he means the text-to-html ratio of text within an HTML document.

Maybe.

First of all your question is not clear. Please be specific on your requirement. What I understood is, you want to find the control from you page. What about Document.GetElementById or $('#' + 'controlId') To find the item ?

As for example,

alert(document.getElementById('controlId'));

i think, getElementsByName('SharedName') for radio buttons and check boxes is much better than getElementById('ConntrolID'), because these controls usually group together by name.

Solution 3

Here's something extremely crude that will get you started:

C#

string myHtml = ... // (whatever your text is...

int textlLength = Regex.Replace(myHtml, "<[^>]*>", String.Empty).Length;
double textToHtmlRatio = (double)textlLength / (double)(myHtml.Length);

Nete that the regex used to strip out HTML is extremely rough. You really need to use a parser to be accurate, and at the very least you need to handle encoded characters (eg & etc)

I don't think that there is something built-in for something like this.
First you should try creating a html parser for identifying all the controls/tags/elements from the page (like <div />, , <h1 />, ...).
After identifying all elements (all left characters are probably text), there shouldn't be a problem calculating the text/html ratio.
