I have some HTML/CSS/JavaScript with painfully long class, id, variable and function names and other, combined strings that get used over and over.

I have a list of questions in a table, some of which are only to be displayed if certain criteria are met. A record might have criteria as simple as 4002=Y where 4002 is the question number and Y is the answer. If 4002=Y then the question is to be displayed.

I want to truncate some text (loaded from a database or text file), but it contains HTML so as a result the tags are included and less text will be returned. This can then result in tags not being closed, or being partially closed (so Tidy may not work properly and there is still less content). How can I truncate based on the text (and p...
I'm very poor with regexps but this should be very simple for someone who knows regexps. Basically I will have a string like this: <if>abc <else>xyz I would like a regexp so if the string contains <if> <else>, it splits the string into two parts and returns the two strings after <if> and <else>. In the above example it might return a...

This will give me the article summary. The summa...

The data is being buf...
