Sorry Hans.

Kind of a late night.

I am able to get the body html now but when assigning it to an
AnsiString the string still truncates it while if I show 
message the body  control it shows the whole body html.

I have tried removing all \r and \n chars from the stringlist 
when saving it to file -- are there any other chars that might 
truncate the AnsiString?

To clarify -- if I use IDE to inspect the StringLIst I can see that it has whole documnet.  but this:

AnsiString doc = tSTrLst->Text;

will not put the whole document in 'doc'.

Did you write also (in anothe rpost) that you could save it to file
and that it showed ok in notepad ? Well then you can get all.

The only problem then is that loading a file in a TStringList
would truncate lines.

Well if you dont give an example it is hard to convince us.
Moreover: at wich length is the truncation ?

Post the file in the attachmentsgroup and post the code that
demonstrates the truncation.

It is posted as "File for hans galema".

I could not see how to upload the file from borland site
newsroup viewer.

What does a null character look like?

The stringlist has the whole file.

the text property does not and it gets chopped off in arbitrary
fashion.  for example "...#cccccc" will appear as "...#cc" in 
the text property.

That makes no sense. The contents of the file is in between <pre></pre>
One finds "&lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;" instead of "<html><head>".

I will not do anything with that.

Why can't you upload the file to attachments ?
borland.public.attachments

Well you did also. But as plain/text. Please post again with the file as
attachment.

And you have to tell which line truncates. And if you know which one then why not
post a smaller file with only that line? Makes it easier to investigate.

Html files can have very long lines. Is it a very long line that truncates ?

Hans.

Could there be a NULL character embedded in the file?  That would cause the 
AnsiString to be truncated...

Or does the file truncate ?

So is this a problem that from many lines, one line -say in the middle- is
truncated? Or does the stringlist load only part of the file ?
If the latter Mark may be right in the byte with value zero.

You could have given this info already.

How did you check ?

Arbitrary ? And only once ? On a very long line ?

And after that ? So the Text property only contains the first piece
of the file ?

Can you reproduce the problem with a smaller file ?

If you would post that file as attachment in borland.public.attachments
we could have a look.

If the file contains a null character then that means that there is
a byte with the value 0. So if you examined the file with a
hexediter you would see 0x00. If you would load the file in memory
you could use strlen() to determine if there is a null char.

  char *text = loadfileinmemory ( path, &filelen );

  if ( strlen(text) != filelen )
	ShowMessage ( "file contains null char");

Inspected it in IDE as mentioned.

Thanks for your respomse.

What do you if this is the case to remove the null char(s)?

Thanks

What do you do to remove the null char?

It is arbitrary I guess, every time, pretty long line.

I posted the file as you asked as "for hans galema"

Replace them by spaces.

  char *ptr = text;

  int len = filelen;

  while ( --len )
	{
	if ( !*ptr ) *ptr = ' ';
         ptr++;
         }

I start vaguely to remember that there were indeed null chars in a html-page
that I once grabbed from amazone.com.

No. I asked to post it as attachment. Instead it is as text in the body of
the message. That makes no sence as your emailposter may have removed
null chars or otherwise my mailreader.

So attach it please.

Hans.

Hi Hans :

I could not see a way to post attachement from BDN newsgroups
on borland web site.

Anyway I was under gun so to speak and the null chars seemed
to occur in parts of page that I was not processing and ended 
parsing TLines in TStringList.

Thank you for code on replacing null characters.
