I have to display first N (for example say 50 or 100) characters out of entire html string. I have to display well formated html.If i apply simple substring that will get me a malformated html string
E.g.
Sample string : "<html><body><a href="http://foo.com">foo</a></body></html>"
trucated string: "<html><body><a href="http://foo.com">foo<"
This will get me malformated html 🙁
Any ideas on how to achieve this ??
You can try using the HTML Agility Pack – it will parse out the HTML for you, but you will need to figure out how to produce a truncated version yourself. It should make things a lot easier though.
