Re: Need help with ideas
hello,
I have created an array list and stored the contents of the file in the Array list.
I just need a clue on the following:
if suppose the contents of the array list has *something*.The output in java console should be <b>something</b>
if it has %hello% it should be underline like <u>underline</u>
basically depending the on the special characters the output in the java console should be in HTML format. Please help

Re: Need help with ideas
What happens when the code is compiled and executed?
What is the program's output?
What needs to be changed?
Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:
[code]
**YOUR CODE GOES HERE**
[/code]
to get highlighting and preserve formatting.

Re: Need help with ideas
sorry I posted the code twice.
The output of the code is: whatever I store in the file gets displayed:
<html>
title: Hello
I *am* fine
__Hi_
be !bold
</html>
what i need to do is or need help is:
I need to replace the special characters with the html tags for example:
<html>
<head>
<title>hello<title>
</head>
I<b>am</b>fine
<i>hi</i>
</html>
Please let me know if i was clear
Re: Need help with ideas
Work on the problem one step at a time.
It currently outputs <html> and </html>
What needs to be done with the first line that is read?
If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
Re: Need help with ideas
yes if your file is empty, the output is just the HTML tags:
when the first line starts with the "title:", then the text following "title:" should be enclosed between <title><title>
Re: Need help with ideas
Ok design the code to do that. Look at the String class for useful methods.when the first line starts with the "title:", then the text following "title:" should be enclosed between <title><title>
