I think i need some help for the string replace function. This one do not replace and gives me same thing back. What might be the issue, guys?
FormattedURl = mysite.com/Merchant.aspx?1=lkdflfdfgj3242
lblclick.Text.Replace("<a class=linkclass href=http://www.mysite.com/ target=_blank > </a>",
"<a class=linkclass href=" + FormattedURL1 + "target=_blank ></a>");
Thank you in advance!!
You need to assign the text back into the variable or control.
The replace function will return a string, not change the current instance.
lblclick.Text = lblclick.Text.Replace("<a class=linkclass href=http://www.mysite.com/ target=_blank > </a>",
"<a class=linkclass href=" + FormattedURL1 + "target=_blank ></a>");
String is immutable, so all functions on string return new instances. Thus to see the effect of the function you must assign the result.
lblclick.Text = lblclick.Text.Replace("<a class=linkclass href=http://www.mysite.com/ target=_blank > </a>", "<a class=linkclass href=" + FormattedURL1 + "target=_blank ></a>");
From the documentation of Replace:
Returns a new string in which all occurrences of a specified string in the current instance are replaced with another specified string.
It does not modify the existing instance, it returns an instance with the changes.
From MSDN...
This method does not modify the value of the current instance. Instead, it returns a new string in which all occurrences of oldValue are replaced by newValue.
Therefore you need to store the returned value and set it on your label or simply set your label to the returned value.
