I have the following awful HTML:
<p>
102036 - <em>In re</em> State v. Williams video<br>
104236 - University of Kansas Hosp. Auth. v. Board of Wabaunsee County Comm'rs video
</p>
I want to use XPath to capture all of the text following each </a>, so:
Item 1: " - In re State v. Williams
Item 2: " - University of Kansas Hosp. Auth. v. Board of Wabunsee County
Alternatively, I could just capture all text, and that would be fine too:
Item 1: "102036 - In re State v. Williams
Item 2: "104236 - University of Kansas Hosp. Auth. v. Board of Wabunsee County
I've been trying various things for a while now, but making no progress. I want something like:
/a/following::text()[before::br]
Help?
Here you go, pal:
//a//following-sibling::text() | //a//following-sibling::*[not(self::a)]/text()
The best thing I've found so far is to simply nuke the errant <em> nodes.
So:
elem = html.xpath('//p')[0]
etree.strip_tags(elem, 'em')
Then, using the cleaner html, a simple XPath can be used:
texts = [e.tail for e in elem.xpath('//a')]

If you have firebug installed and are running Firefox, for this and all future xpath needs you can just follow this tutorial:
http://www.wikihow.com/Find-XPath-Using-Firebug
Very easy way to find the xpath for anything on a page.

Text align justify moves bullet points on the text contents on certain line in Firefox. Is there a way to avoid this behavior.
Below snippet will show the anomaly if you open it in Firefox. It works fine in Chrome & IE (I checked in IE10/IE11).
As showing on Firefox:

<li>Property was occupied by Doe Family for past 17 years where in seller Mr. John Doe owner of collateral through CD claims execution of sale deed with mutual consent. On joint visit by credit and sales team it was found that there are two parallel title chain of the collateral:</li>
<li>Way back in 2000-01 John Doe and his brother entered into collaboration with some Creater Jane Doe and it was decided that G+2 structure will be built. GF & 1st will go to both the brothers and 2nd to builder. But no collaboration agreement was entered on paper. Further builder breaching the mutually agreed terms constructed 3rd floor as well -> Accordingly builder claimed occupancy n rights on both 2nd and 3rd floor – property went into dispute</li>

I have to do this repeatedly, so I was wondering if there was a working around....
here is a set of amenities for an apartment, they have to be transferred to a larger list containing those amenities by clicking off multiple choice cirlces. Is there away to edit the script to do it all at once>
example
accessible
air conditioning
dishwasher
garage
hardwood floors
parking
patio / balcony
gym
in unit laundry
cats allowed
dogs allowed
pet friendly
basketball court
bathtub
bbq/grill
bike storage
business center
carpet
ceiling fan
clubhouse
game room
granite counters
microwave
oven
package receiving
playground
pool table
range
refrigerator
stainless steel
walk in closets
I think you want to just checkmark all of the checkboxes on the amenities list so something like this will work:
$('div.whitelist-searchable-amenity input[type=checkbox]').each(function(){
$(this).prop('checked', true);
});
https://jsfiddle.net/r62qgou3/
Edit:
I am not sure of what you mean by "copying text to script" but I modified the script to check if the values that you are looking for are within the document. This should search the values of the checkboxes and then you can use your own script to "copy" the value elsewhere. Just add more values to the array if you need more keywords.
x = [
"accessible",
"air conditioning",
"dishwasher",
"garage",
];
$('div.whitelist-searchable-amenity input[type=checkbox]').each(function(){
if(x.indexOf(this.value) > -1)
{
alert("copy here");
}
});
I've been designing this game, and Ive come across a weird problem. Now maybe it's just something simple I've missed or some way I formatted it. When I run my code I get these errors that suggest that none of the variables I've been defining are being declared/defined. On top of that none of the functions seem to run... Should I define text1, button1Name, etc... as Global variable? or is their a better way?

In my project, I am retrieving an address from the database and displaying this address on page. The issue or problem that I am facing is the the way the retrieved address is being displayed.
Basically this is the way the address is being displayed:
Address: 1 Kings Street Kilmarnock East Berkshire Scotland KA1 UIT
I would like the address to be displayed like so:
Address: 1 Kings Street
Kilmarnock
East Berkshire
Scotland
KA1 UIT
How can I do this in HTML or css? I am currently using twitter bootstrap , and I don't if there is anyway to do using it.
Oh.. It's hard but let me try... ;)
<div>Address: 1 Kings Street<br> Kilmarnock <br>East Berkshire<br> Scotland <br>KA1 UIT</div>
Your Expected Output:
Address: 1 Kings Street
Kilmarnock
East Berkshire
Scotland
KA1 UIT
Working Demo
Note: This is just simplest and basic way.. But if Data is coming from any database dynamically then at-least you should explain in details from where it comes and by which object it can be accessible.. Then you can apply JS or regex functions... I hope you understand what I mean..
If you edited the data in your database, and used a comma between each line, you might be able to split the data. (your question doesn't state what language you are writing in (mvc/how data is being received).
However, once you have the string, you can use the String.split method (available in most languages), and hence could adapt your view accordingly.
So,
Address: 1 Kings Street, Kilmarnock, East Berkshire, Scotland, KA1 UIT
would become
{1 Kings Street}{ Kilmarnock}{ East Berkshire}{ Scotland}{ KA1 UIT}
which you could then do a foreach block, displaying them onto the screen as you requested
A possible alternative (although probably not easy), would be to extract the postcode, and call a google maps API call to receive the address - but again, this would be quite difficult.
At present, I cannot see how you would be able to expect a program to decide where to split the address into separate lines (unless you place them into different fields which was described in the comments).
You can add <p> to each line, or put <br> at the end of each lines.
But
If your retrieving the data from a database through a php variable you cannot do that with pure html / css, you'll need string manipulation with PHP.
in xml data is
<content_special>
SAT 17TH TEST test club cheap drinks £3 shots £5 bottles $beers
</content_special>
i get this string using this code
TBXMLElement *Content_Special=[TBXML childElementNamed:#"content_special" parentElement:Club];
NSString *Content_SpecialStr = [TBXML textForElement:Content_Special];
when i NSLog(#"Content_special:%#",Content_SpecialStr);
that print like this
Content_special:SAT 17TH TEST
test club
cheap drinks
£3 shots
£5 bottles
$beers
how can i get original sting which Display in Xlm ? Any suggestion...
Found Solution Using Google Toolbox for Mac GTMNSString+HTML.h ,GTMNSString+HTML.m And GTMDefines.h,
First #import "GTMNSString+HTML.h"
use like This: Content_SpecialStr = [Content_SpecialStr gtm_stringByUnescapingFromHTML];
