$(selector).text() equivalent in c# (Revised)
- by Ian Jasper Bardoquillo
Hi,
I am trying check if the inner html of the element is empty but I wanted to do the validation on the server side, I'm treating the html as a string. Here is my code
public string HasContent(string htmlString){
// this is the expected value of the htmlString
// <span class="spanArea">
// <STYLE>.ExternalClass234B6D3CB6ED46EEB13945B1427AA47{;}</STYLE>
// </span>
// From this jquery code-------------->
// if($('.spanArea').text().length>0){
//
// }
// <------------------
// I wanted to convert the jquery statement above into c# code.
/// c# code goes here
return htmlSTring;
}
using this line
$('.spanArea').text() // what is the equivalent of this line in c#
I will know if the .spanArea does really have something to display in the ui or not. I wanted to do the checking on the server side. No need to worry about how to I managed to access the DOM I have already taken cared of it. Consider the htmlString as the Html string.
My question is if there is any equivalent for this jquery line in C#?
Thanks in advance! :)
