I'm trying to create a file template for PhpStorm that has a back-slash in front of a variable. This is for a json template used in magento development, but I would say that this issue is extension ambivalent:
Text in the template:
"Something\\${Variable_Name}\\"
I would like this to result in
"Something\\EnteredVariable\\"
But this is the results in this in the generated file:
"Something\EnteredVariable\\"
I've tried adding an extra dollar sign which results in:
"Somthing\$EnteredVariable\\"
and extra back slash, which results in:
"Something\${Variable_Name}"
an extra dollar sign and an extra back slash, which also results in:
"Something\${Variable_Name}"
I couldn't find the answer in any docs. Anyone have the answer?
Thank's to #LazyOne;
The answer is to add a double backslash. To get "Something\\VanName\\"
// to get "Something\\EnteredVariable\\" use
"Somthing\\\\$Variable_Name"

I'm trying to write a code snippet for vs code that takes a given file name, removes a piece of the name and capitalizes the first letter. For example
Input:
example.model.js
Output:
Example
Output im getting:
${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(.*).[model]+$//capitalize//}
I'm able to remove the trailing half of the file name with the following string
"${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(.*)\\.[model]+$/$1/}"
I tried to take this a step further with the following but it doesn't seem to work.
"${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(.*)\\.[model]+$/${1:/capitalize/}/}"
Based on the documentation i'm not sure where I'm going wrong.
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/userdefinedsnippets#_transform-examples
Any ideas on what I'm missing here? Also are there any tools that could help build these kinds of complex expressions?
Thanks
It looks like i was writing the grammer incorrect adding a trailing slash / the correct way is below
${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(.).\.[model]+$/${1:/capitalize}/};"
With this regex (.*)\\.[model]+$, (.*) captures the whole word.
For eg, it will capture example in example.model.js and thus, capitalize it as EXAMPLE
You need to capture only the first character like so:
"${TM_FILENAME_BASE/(.).*\\.[model]+$/${1:/capitalize/}/}"
A webpage is opened if the URL contains '#'. But i get 'Page Not Found' error if the url contains '%23' instead of #.
Few months earlier, i was able to access my html page using the following link '%23'.
https://www.something.com/index.html%23MyPage
however, these links are now not working. but works if %23 is changed to #.
https://www.something.com/index.html#MyPage
curious, what could be the reason. Could it be something changed in the webserver? I have such links specified in many places and do not want to change if possible.
Will appreciate your help.
Using %23 instead of # is not possible. The whole purpose of URL encoded strings is that they should not have any function in the URL itself, so that you can pass letters to the URL which normally have functions.
For example ? / #. If these characters aren't encoded, the URL wants to treat them according to their function. So what if you want to use one of these characters without their function? You use encoded characters which will have no functions and are simply treated as strings.
I ran into a website that used a hyphen (not a dash) to build it's URL. I want to link to this website from another HTML document using the following code:
The Course
Difficult to see, but the hyphen is the 14th character from the right in the href. (Immediately before the second TSO abbreviation.)
Is there a way to reference this character properly using an ASCII escape code similar to a %20 for a space?
Or am I stuck with sending the other web-dev kindly asking them to fix the problem? :-)
You would use %e2%80%93 to encode that hyphen character:
The Course
I used this C# code to find out the encoding:
Console.WriteLine(HttpUtility.UrlEncode("–"));
I'm trying to include a simple hyperlink in a website:
...Engineers (IEEE) projects:
So that it ends up looking like "...Engineers (IEEE) projects:" with "IEEE" being the hyperlink.
When I click on copy link address and paste the address, instead of getting
http://www.ieee.ucla.edu/
I get
http://www.ieee.ucla.edu/%C3%A2%E2%82%AC%C5%BD
and when I click on the link, it takes me to a 404 page.
Check the link. These special character are added automatically by browser (URL Encoding).
Url Encoding
Use this code and it will work::
IEEE
The proper format to add hyperlink to a html is as follow
(texts to be hyperlink)
and for better understanding go through this link http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp
%C3%A2%E2%82%AC%C5%BD represents „ which is when you get when a unicode „ is being parsed as Windows-1252 data.
Use straight quotes to delimit attribute values in your real code. You are doing this in the code you have included in the question, but that won't have the effect you are seeing. Presumably your codes are being transformed at some point in your real code.
Add appropriate HTTP headers and <meta> data to tell the browser what encoding your file is really using
Passing a filename to the firefox browser causes it to replace spaces with %2520 instead of %20.
I have the following HTML in a file called myhtml.html:
<img src="C:\Documents and Settings\screenshots\Image01.png"/>
When I load myhtml.html into firefox, the image shows up as a broken image. So I right click the link to view the picture and it shows this modified URL:
file:///c:/Documents%2520and%2520Settings/screenshots/Image01.png
^
^-----Firefox changed my space to %2520.
What the heck? It converted my space into a %2520. Shouldn't it be converting it to a %20?
How do I change this HTML file so that the browser can find my image? What's going on here?
A bit of explaining as to what that %2520 is :
The common space character is encoded as %20 as you noted yourself.
The % character is encoded as %25.
The way you get %2520 is when your url already has a %20 in it, and gets urlencoded again, which transforms the %20 to %2520.
Are you (or any framework you might be using) double encoding characters?
Edit:
Expanding a bit on this, especially for LOCAL links. Assuming you want to link to the resource C:\my path\my file.html:
if you provide a local file path only, the browser is expected to encode and protect all characters given (in the above, you should give it with spaces as shown, since % is a valid filename character and as such it will be encoded) when converting to a proper URL (see next point).
if you provide a URL with the file:// protocol, you are basically stating that you have taken all precautions and encoded what needs encoding, the rest should be treated as special characters. In the above example, you should thus provide file:///c:/my%20path/my%20file.html. Aside from fixing slashes, clients should not encode characters here.
NOTES:
Slash direction - forward slashes / are used in URLs, reverse slashes \ in Windows paths, but most clients will work with both by converting them to the proper forward slash.
In addition, there are 3 slashes after the protocol name, since you are silently referring to the current machine instead of a remote host ( the full unabbreviated path would be file://localhost/c:/my%20path/my%file.html ), but again most clients will work without the host part (ie two slashes only) by assuming you mean the local machine and adding the third slash.
For some - possibly valid - reason the url was encoded twice. %25 is the urlencoded % sign. So the original url looked like:
http://server.com/my path/
Then it got urlencoded once:
http://server.com/my%20path/
and twice:
http://server.com/my%2520path/
So you should do no urlencoding - in your case - as other components seems to to that already for you. Use simply a space
When you are trying to visit a local filename through firefox browser, you have to force the file:\\\ protocol (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme) or else firefox will encode your space TWICE. Change the html snippet from this:
<img src="C:\Documents and Settings\screenshots\Image01.png"/>
to this:
<img src="file:\\\C:\Documents and Settings\screenshots\Image01.png"/>
or this:
<img src="file://C:\Documents and Settings\screenshots\Image01.png"/>
Then firefox is notified that this is a local filename, and it renders the image correctly in the browser, correctly encoding the string once.

Try using this
file:///c:/Documents%20and%20Settings/screenshots/Image01.png
Whenever you are trying to open a local file in the browser using cmd or any html tag use "file:///" and replace spaces with %20 (url encoding of space)
The following code snippet resolved my issue. Thought this might be useful to others.
var strEnc = this.$.txtSearch.value.replace(/\s/g, "-");
strEnc = strEnc.replace(/-/g, " ");
Rather using default encodeURIComponent my first line of code is converting all spaces into hyphens using regex pattern /\s\g and the following line just does the reverse, i.e. converts all hyphens back to spaces using another regex pattern /-/g. Here /g is actually responsible for finding all matching characters.
When I am sending this value to my Ajax call, it traverses as normal spaces or simply %20 and thus gets rid of double-encoding.
Try this?
encodeURIComponent('space word').replace(/%20/g,'+')
