  • Is it possible to search for key words in an XML file?

    Hey all,.

    I am currently looking for ways to count the number of keywords in an XML file. An example would be trying to find how many times 'war' is mentioned in a network of new RSS feed < title > < / title > and adding it to a variable.

    I found a few AS3 XML class custom there files but nothing that I was able to adapt. I'm to the point just taking the title of these stories convert all channels and their research in this way...

    I would be grateful for any help

    Thank you!

    Just to clarify the JCSurf

    In your example, you're checking whether the XML element has an attribute "NAMED" keywords.

    If you try to determine the number of times keyword 'war' appears in a specific XML newsfeed, I guess that XML elements already have an attribute named "Key words" and you check in to this existing attribute and then check if the word ' war exist in the keywords attribute, and then finally to count the number of times where that is. "

    ============

    function negativeKeyword(keywords:String)

    {

    for (var i: Number = 0; i< 29;="">

    {

    If (myXML.channel.item.title [i] .attribute == keywords) / / this is only check verifies if an attribute exists that is called keywords

    {

    -negativeNumber;

    }

    }

    }

    ============

    It should check to see if the keyword attribute is an element tag and if it contains the word 'war '.

    If (myXML.channel.item.title [i] .attribute ("keywords") is 'war')

    I also believe you need to do your quoted strings.

    Keep me posted.

  • Search for a word in a Web page

    Hello

    I have a little problem on the search in a web page.

    Without worrying to highlight what is useful in all software, how can I search for a word in a Web page?

    I mean imagine in windows, through the web page, you need to find the word "except", if you come to use the Toolbox in the browser and type except to indicate each word "except" in this page and highlight it. Is there a similar option for safari for Mac too?

    F command should do what you want. -AJ

  • Search for several words in SQL

    I want to be able to search on multiple words in sql.  If someone entered in the field search for several words like "industry of corn for biofuels". I want to return all records that has one of these words in them.  Here is my code: (brings back only the sentence and not individual words in the database)

    and)
    path as < cfqueryparam cfsqltype = "cf_sql_varchar" value="%#arguments.searchterms#%" > "
    or
    the body as < cfqueryparam cfsqltype = "cf_sql_longvarchar' value="%#arguments.searchterms#% ">"
    or
    Summary as < cfqueryparam cfsqltype = "cf_sql_varchar" value="%#arguments.searchterms#%" > "
    or
    the author as < cfqueryparam cfsqltype = "cf_sql_varchar" value="%#arguments.searchterms#%" > "

    something like this:

    Select somefields

    of sometables

    where 1 = 1

    and

    (

    or concat (Field1, Field2, etc.) like ' %#word #% ".

    or 1 = 2

    )

    Just to let you know, it will be slow.   Also, if one of these fields accept NULL values, you will have to deal with that.

  • If I put all my files on the C drive that has the operating system and make a recovery of keys one, will I lose my files?

    If I put all my files on the C drive that has the operating system and make a recovery of keys one, will I lose my files? drive C whereas the partition that has the operating system and drive D is the lenovo drive that has all the drivers lenovo and all those. Did I lose my files?

    Yes, the collection clears all of the C drive and you will lose your files. The solution would be to backup regularly to an external HARD drive and after the key one to also restore the files from the external hard drive.

    This has been answered before, if you do a search for "key recovery" it appears among the first results.

  • 4.1.1 fusion erases files on the Mac desktop that are deleted in Fusion

    I have merge 4.1.1 installed on a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.6.8.  If I download a file on the Mac desktop and then drag and drop it on the desktop of Windows XP which runs under Fusion, a box of "copy" just stating that the file is copied to the virtual machine.  If the file is 95MB, for example, copy the area shows the progress of the 95MB copy to the VM.  So far so good.  At the same time, a file is created on the Mac desktop which is a duplicate of the file slipped to the virtual operating system of Windows.  If I trash the file on the Mac desktop, it removes the file on the Windows desktop as well.  I-mode installation of VMware Fusion full screen and have a second monitor on the Mac, where I've been the VMware virtual machine.

    It's as if the file on the desktop Mac was in fact the only real file and one on the virtual machine has been a 'shortcut' or 'alias' in the file.  Not sure if I just something I have to change in the settings of merger to prevent this, or if this is normal behavior.

    It seems that you have enabled the functionality of records at the Office for this Virtual Machine VMware Fusion mirror.  Check the settings of records in reverse in the Virtual Machine settings and uncheck the box office under folders in reverse.

  • Under XP I could search for a string in all the files on my computer. I can't find this search function of SMEs on Windows 7. Anyone?

    On Windows XP, there is a search function to search for a string in any kind of files on your computer. You are looking for a specific name was easy, if you fogort what kind of file, this name occurred in or what it was named.

    On Windows 7 it only allows searching for a name of a file.  How to search for strings in file names?  29/12/12 Paul Figueroa

    Oh, what you want is the content property.

    content: ~ = Figueroa

    [Update: apparently special search symbols such as ~ = do not work with the content when property indexed research places, but work during the search in unindexed locations.]

    I should mention that Windows 7 Search is not case sensitive, so it makes no difference to try to find upper or lower case letters.  In addition, Windows 7 Search is not able to search the contents of files that have no file extension.  There is also a weird question having to watch in Indexing Options to determine which file extensions are defined for content, research, where you have a type of unusual file that is not defined for the content of the search.
