Hello,
Just use NSScanner (http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSScanner_Class/Reference/Reference.html
) to parse those <html> tags.
Something like this should do the job:
NSString *stringBeforeHtml = nil;
NSScanner *scanner = [[NSScanner alloc]
initWithString:@"SomeString<html></html>"];
if([scanner scanUpToString:@"<html>" intoString:&stringBeforeHtml]) {
// From here on the left part of the string is located within
stringBeforeHtml,
// And the rest is still in the scanner.
// Now you can choose, or you parse the rest with the scanner,
// or you just ask it its scanLocation, and you have the index from
where to substring.
}
The code above could be partially incorrect, since I am typing on a
computer without XCode.

Hi there,
I went through the various substring methods like
NSString *str1 = [theResponseString substringFromIndex:2]
NSString *pathTrimmed = [theResponseString lastPathComponent];
and also other methods from:
http://developer.apple.com/documenta...cc/cl/NSString<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSString_Class/Reference/NSString.html#//apple_ref/occ/cl/NSString
>
But none of them fits my requirement.
My String:
Thisismyentirestringwithhtmltagtowardstheend<html><head><title>My
Page</title></head><body>My web page</body></html>
All I have to do is to get the complete html tag out of that string.
Also,
the position of the <HTML> tag will vary from time to time.
Is that possible, can some one post their suggestions/code samples
please?
If not, I have to do it other way. I have an xml:
<tag1>
<method>
<id>001</id>
<name>james</name>
<![CDATA[ <html><head><title>My Page</title></head><body>My web
page</body></html> ]]>
</method>
</tag1>
I have to parse the xml & retrieve the CDATA alone. I have written the
parser method, but it fails to read the CDATA alone. It reads the
<id>&
<name> tags. Also all the other are inside some other node. But
CDATA is not
inside any node. I know that it is the problem. But i cant add a tag
to
that.
Is there any way to parse the CDATA & retrieve the XML?
Thanks in Advance!
