You can use a simple regex like this:

    public static string StripHTML(string input)
    {
       return Regex.Replace(input, &quot;&lt;.*?&gt;&quot;, String.Empty);
    }

**Be aware that this solution has its own flaw.** See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4878452/remove-html-tags-in-string for more information (especially the comments of &#39;Mark E. Haase&#39;/@mehaase)

Another solution would be to use the [HTML Agility Pack][1].  
You can find an example using the library here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12787449/html-agility-pack-removing-unwanted-tags-without-removing-content




  [1]: http://html-agility-pack.net/?z=codeplex

You can parse the string using [Html Agility pack][1] and get the InnerText.

        HtmlDocument htmlDoc = new HtmlDocument();
        htmlDoc.LoadHtml(@&quot;&lt;b&gt; Hulk Hogan&#39;s Celebrity Championship Wrestling &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font color=\&quot;#228b22\&quot;&gt;[Proj # 206010]&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; (Reality Series, &amp;nbsp;)&quot;);
        string result = htmlDoc.DocumentNode.InnerText;


  [1]: http://www.nuget.org/packages/HtmlAgilityPack

You can use the below code on your string and you will get the complete string without html part.

    string title = &quot;&lt;b&gt; Hulk Hogan&#39;s Celebrity Championship Wrestling &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font color=\&quot;#228b22\&quot;&gt;[Proj # 206010]&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; (Reality Series, &amp;nbsp;)&quot;.Replace(&quot;&amp;nbsp;&quot;,string.Empty);            
            string s = Regex.Replace(title, &quot;&lt;.*?&gt;&quot;, String.Empty);

Is there any easy way to remove all HTML tags or ANYTHING HTML related from a string?

For example:

    string title = &quot;&lt;b&gt; Hulk Hogan&#39;s Celebrity Championship Wrestling &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font color=\&quot;#228b22\&quot;&gt;[Proj # 206010]&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; (Reality Series, &amp;nbsp;)&quot;

The above should really be: 

&quot;Hulk Hogan&#39;s Celebrity Championship Wrestling [Proj # 206010] (Reality Series)&quot;

Before starting, I&#39;m a big fan of AutoFixture, I&#39;m still in the curve of learning how to use the tool. So thanks for having developed Autofixture Mr Ploeh and all the contributors.

So let&#39;s start with my question.

According to
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13484471/autofixture-automoq-ignores-injected-instance-frozen-mock

The interesting part of the above link is given this code

    Mock&lt;ISettings&gt; settingsMock = new Mock&lt;ISettings&gt;();
    settingsMock.Setup(s =&gt; s.Get(settingKey)).Returns(xmlString);

    ISettings settings = settingsMock.Object;
    fixture.Inject(settings);

To which Mark answer it can be rewritten to 

    fixture.Freeze&lt;Mock&lt;ISettings&gt;&gt;()
           .Setup(s =&gt; s.Get(settingKey)).Returns(xmlString);

It looks like a syntaxic sugar, using Freeze method is a way to write in fluent interface the creation of the mock, the configuration, and the injection in autofixture container.

After doing some research on the web, there&#39;re actually a functional difference between Freeze and Inject. I found this question:
https://github.com/AutoFixture/AutoFixture/issues/59
which point the answer to 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12218206/how-can-i-freeze-a-null-instance-in-autofixture/12219355#12219355

The author of the link above describe Freeze method as the following:

&gt; Internally, Freeze creates an instance of the requested type (e.g.
&gt; IPayPalConfiguration) and then injects it so it will always return
&gt; that instance when you request it again

I understand that when we do

    var customer = fixture.Freeze&lt;Order&gt;();

it will always use the same instance of Order whenever our code request an Order type. But what if I specify in Freeze constructor that I want it to use a specific instance ? 

Here&#39;s a little code example:

    [Fact]
    public void MethodeName()
    {
        var fixture = new Fixture().Customize(new AutoMoqCustomization());
        fixture.Freeze&lt;OrderLine&gt;(new OrderLine(&quot;Foo&quot;));
        var order = fixture.Create&lt;Order&gt;();
    }

    public class Order
    {
        private readonly OrderLine _line;

        public Order(OrderLine line)
        {
            _line = line;
        }
    }
    public class OrderLine
    {
        private readonly string _name;

        public OrderLine(string name)
        {
            _name = name;
        }
    }

Shouldn&#39;t the name of OrderLine be equal to &quot;Foo&quot; instead of namefe48163a-d5a0-49a5-b349-7b11ba5f804b ? The documentation of Freeze method say:

    &lt;typeparam name=&quot;T&quot;&gt;The type to freeze.&lt;/typeparam&gt;
    &lt;param name=&quot;fixture&quot;&gt;The fixture.&lt;/param&gt;
    &lt;param name=&quot;seed&quot;&gt;Any data that adds additional information when creating the anonymous object. Hypothetically, this value might be the value being frozen, but this is not likely.&lt;/param&gt;

why is the author not sure when the value is returned ? If I specify, my instance in the constructor of Freeze, I&#39;m expecting autofixture to use this instance ?

then

&gt;Please notice that the &lt;paramref name=&quot;seed&quot;/&gt; isn&#39;t likely to be used as the frozen value, unless you&#39;ve customized &lt;paramref name=&quot;fixture&quot;/&gt; to do this. If you wish to inject a specific value into the Fixture, you should use the &lt;see cref=&quot;M:Ploeh.AutoFixture.FixtureRegistrar.Inject``1(Ploeh.AutoFixture.IFixture,``0)&quot;/&gt; method instead.`

It seems like I have to customize the seed parameter. Can anyone clarify ? The solution pointed by documentation is to use Inject method. And indeed, it works in my code example with OrderLine.

I&#39;m looking for your help to understand the difference between Freeze, Inject, and also Register which, according to the source code, is just called by Inject method but it takes a lambda.

Can&#39;t grasp the difference between Freeze/Inject/Register

             &quot;last_name&quot;:&quot;Account&quot;,
             &quot;email&quot;:&quot;test1@example.com&quot;,
             &quot;organization&quot;:&quot;&quot;,
             &quot;reference&quot;:null,
             &quot;id&quot;:3545134,
             &quot;created_at&quot;:&quot;2013-08-06T15:51:15-04:00&quot;,

             &quot;address_2&quot;:&quot;&quot;,
             &quot;city&quot;:&quot;&quot;,
             &quot;state&quot;:&quot;&quot;,
             &quot;zip&quot;:&quot;&quot;,
             &quot;country&quot;:&quot;&quot;,
             &quot;phone&quot;:&quot;&quot;
          }
       },
       {
          &quot;customer&quot;:{
             &quot;first_name&quot;:&quot;Test&quot;,
             &quot;last_name&quot;:&quot;Account2&quot;,
             &quot;email&quot;:&quot;test2@example.com&quot;,
             &quot;organization&quot;:&quot;&quot;,
             &quot;reference&quot;:null,
             &quot;id&quot;:3570462,
             &quot;created_at&quot;:&quot;2013-08-12T11:54:58-04:00&quot;,

             &quot;country&quot;:&quot;&quot;,
             &quot;phone&quot;:&quot;&quot;
          }
       }
    ]

JSON.net would work great with something like the following structure  

	{
		&quot;customer&quot;: {
			[&quot;field1&quot; : &quot;value&quot;, etc...],
			[&quot;field1&quot; : &quot;value&quot;, etc...],
		}
	}

But I can not figure out how to get it to be happy with the provided structure. 

Using the default JsonConvert.DeserializeObject&lt;Customer&gt;(content) results the correct number of Customer but all of the data is null.

Doing something a CustomerList (below) results in a &quot;Cannot deserialize the current JSON array&quot; exception

    public class CustomerList
    {
        public List&lt;Customer&gt; customer { get; set; }
    }

Thoughts?

Deserializing JSON Object Array with Json.net

I have worked on Java and new to .Net technology

Is it possible to declare a function in C# which accepts variable input parameters

Is there any C# syntax similar to the following Java syntax?

    void f1(String... a)

Is there a C# alternative to Java&#39;s vararg parameters?

At the moment, when I iterate over the *DataRow* instances, I do this.

    foreach(DataRow row in table)
      return yield new Thingy { Name = row[&quot;hazaa&quot;] };

Sooner of later (i.e. sooner), I&#39;ll get the *table* to be missing the column *donkey* and the poo will hit the fan. After some extensive googling (about 30 seconds) I discovered the following protection syntax.

    foreach(DataRow row in table)
      if(row.Table.Columns.Contains(&quot;donkey&quot;))
        return yield new Thingy { Name = row[&quot;hazaa&quot;] };
      else
        return null;

Now - is this the simplest syntax?! Really? I was expecting a method that gets me the field if it exists or *null* otherwise. Or at least a *Contains* method directly on the *row*.

Am I missing something? I&#39;ll be mapping in many fields that way so the code will look dreadfully unreadable...



Best practice to check if DataRow contains a certain column

I&#39;d like to know if there is a &quot;safe&quot; way to convert an object to an `int`, avoiding exceptions.

I&#39;m looking for something like `public static bool TryToInt32(object value, out int result);`

I know I could make something like this:
   
    public static bool TryToInt32(object value, out int result)
    {
        try
        {
            result = Convert.ToInt32(value);
            return true;
        }
        catch
        {
            result = 0;
            return false;
        }
    }

But I&#39;d rather avoid exceptions, because they are slowing down the process.

I think this is more elegant, but it&#39;s still &quot;cheap&quot;:

    public static bool TryToInt32(object value, out int result)
    {
        if (value == null)
        {
            result = 0;
            return false;
        }

        return int.TryParse(value.ToString(), out result);
    }

Does anyone have better ideas?

UPDATE:

This sounds a little like splitting hairs, but converting an object to string forces the implementer to create a clear `ToString()` function. For example:

    public class Percentage
    {
        public int Value { get; set; }

        public override string ToString()
        {
            return string.Format(&quot;{0}%&quot;, Value);
        }
    }

    Percentage p = new Percentage();
    p.Value = 50;

    int v;
    if (int.TryParse(p.ToString(), out v))
    {
        
    }

This goes wrong, I can do two things here, or implement the `IConvertable` like this:

    public static bool ToInt32(object value, out int result)
    {
        if (value == null)
        {
            result = 0;
            return false;
        }

        if (value is IConvertible)
        {
            result = ((IConvertible)value).ToInt32(Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture);
            return true;
        }

        return int.TryParse(value.ToString(), out result);
    }

But the `ToInt32` method of the `IConvertible` cannot be canceled. So if it&#39;s not possible to convert the value, an exception cannot be avoided.

Or two: Is there a way to check if the object contains a implicit operator?

This is very poor:

    if (value.GetType().GetMethods().FirstOrDefault(method =&gt; method.Name == &quot;op_Implicit&quot; &amp;&amp; method.ReturnType == typeof(int)) != null)
    {
        result = (int)value;
        return true;
    }

Is there a try Convert.ToInt32... avoiding exceptions

## The Situation ##

Nested within our Angular app is a directive called Page, backed by a controller, which contains a div with an ng-bind-html-unsafe attribute. This is assigned to a $scope var called &#39;pageContent&#39;. This var gets assigned dynamically generated HTML from a database. When the user flips to the next page, a called to the DB is made, and the pageContent var is set to this new HTML, which gets rendered onscreen through ng-bind-html-unsafe. Here&#39;s the code:

**Page directive**

    angular.module(&#39;myApp.directives&#39;)
        .directive(&#39;myPage&#39;, function ($compile) {
    
            return {
                templateUrl: &#39;page.html&#39;,
                restrict: &#39;E&#39;,
                compile: function compile(element, attrs, transclude) {
                    // does nothing currently
                    return {
                        pre: function preLink(scope, element, attrs, controller) {
                            // does nothing currently
                        },
                        post: function postLink(scope, element, attrs, controller) {
                            // does nothing currently
                        }
                    }
                }
            };
        });

**Page directive&#39;s template** (&quot;page.html&quot; from the templateUrl property above)

    &lt;div ng-controller=&quot;PageCtrl&quot; &gt;
       ...
       &lt;!-- dynamic page content written into the div below --&gt;
       &lt;div ng-bind-html-unsafe=&quot;pageContent&quot; &gt;
       ...
    &lt;/div&gt;

**Page controller**

    angular.module(&#39;myApp&#39;)
      .controller(&#39;PageCtrl&#39;, function ($scope) {
    
            $scope.pageContent = &#39;&#39;;
    
            $scope.$on( &quot;receivedPageContent&quot;, function(event, args) {
                console.log( &#39;new page content received after DB call&#39; );
                $scope.pageContent = args.htmlStrFromDB;
            });

    });

That works. We see the page&#39;s HTML from the DB rendered nicely in the browser. When the user flips to the next page, we see the next page&#39;s content, and so on. So far so good.

## The Problem ##

The problem here is that we want to have interactive content inside of a page&#39;s content. For instance, the HTML may contain a thumbnail image where, when the user clicks on it, Angular should do something awesome, such as displaying a pop-up modal window. I&#39;ve placed Angular method calls (ng-click) in the HTML strings in our database, but of course Angular isn&#39;t going to recognize either method calls or directives unless it somehow parses the HTML string, recognizes them and compiles them.

**In our DB**

Content for Page 1:

    &lt;p&gt;Here&#39;s a cool pic of a lion. &lt;img src=&quot;lion.png&quot; ng-click=&quot;doSomethingAwesone(&#39;lion&#39;, &#39;showImage&#39;)&quot; &gt; Click on him to see a large image.&lt;/p&gt;

Content for Page 2:

    &lt;p&gt;Here&#39;s a snake. &lt;img src=&quot;snake.png&quot; ng-click=&quot;doSomethingAwesone(&#39;snake&#39;, &#39;playSound&#39;)&quot; &gt;Click to make him hiss.&lt;/p&gt;

Back in the Page controller, we then add the corresponding $scope function:

**Page controller**

    $scope.doSomethingAwesome = function( id, action ) {
        console.log( &quot;Going to do &quot; + action + &quot; with &quot;+ id );
    }

I can&#39;t figure out how to call that &#39;doSomethingAwesome&#39; method from within the HTML string from the DB. I realize Angular has to parse the HTML string somehow, but how? I&#39;ve read vague mumblings about the $compile service, and copied and pasted some examples, but nothing works. Also, most examples show dynamic content only getting set during the linking phase of the directive. We would want Page to stay alive throughout the life of the app. It constantly receives, compiles and displays new content as the user flips through pages. 

In an abstract sense, I guess you could say we are trying to dynamically nest chunks of Angular within an Angular app, and need to be able to swap them in and out.

I&#39;ve read various bits of Angular documentation multiple times, as well as all sorts of blog posts, and JS Fiddled with people&#39;s code. I don&#39;t know whether I&#39;m completely misunderstanding Angular, or just missing something simple, or maybe I&#39;m slow. In any case, I could use some advice.

I want to use Google&#39;s Roboto font on my website and I am following this tutorial:

http://www.maketecheasier.com/use-google-roboto-font-everywhere/2012/03/15

I have downloaded the file which has a folder structure like this:

![enter image description here][1]

Now I have three questions:

1. I have css in my `media/css/main.css` url. So where do I need to put that folder?
2. Do I need to extract all eot,svg etc from all sub folder and put in `fonts` folder?
3. Do I need to create css file fonts.css and include in my base template file?

The example he uses this

    @font-face {
