<option value="Seller">Seller</option>
<option value="Seller2">Seller2</option>
<option value="xxx">Seller3</option>
<option value="xxx">sedfBFB</option>
<option value="xxx">Sedscdsa</option>
<option value="xxx">dfsdvs</option>
<option value="xxx">sg42gr</option>
On those line(plus many more ofcourse) I would like to replace xxx with the text that comes next, like the first two lines.
With simple replace of text editors this can be done.
Can this be done with emacs something like that?
Something like replace xxx with what is wrapped by > and </option>.Or just copy what is wrapped between two string would be enough.

return s
return bar(match("\s*\<option value\=\"(\w+)\"\>(\w+)\<\/option\>\s*$", s).groups())
with open("src") as fs, open("dst", mode="w") as fd:
fd.writelines(map(foo, fs.readlines()))
[/code]
It works, but doesn't fully satisfy me. Is there a neat way to get rid of that dumb replace?

Oh, Jesus! Terribly sorry!
from re import match
def foo(s):
def bar(gs):
if len(gs) == 2 and gs[0] == "xxx":
return s.replace("xxx", gs[1])
return s
return bar(match("\s*\<option value\=\"(\w+)\"\>(\w+)\<\/option\>\s*$", s).groups())
with open("src") as fs, open("dst", mode="w") as fd:
fd.writelines(map(foo, fs.readlines()))

It would have been much easier to just generate the text >>> l = ["Seller","Seller2","Seller3","sedfBFB","Sedscdsa","dfsdvs","sg42gr"]
>>> for x in l: print '<option value="%s">%s</option>' % (x,x)
...
<option value="Seller">Seller</option>
<option value="Seller2">Seller2</option>
<option value="Seller3">Seller3</option>
<option value="sedfBFB">sedfBFB</option>
<option value="Sedscdsa">Sedscdsa</option>
<option value="dfsdvs">dfsdvs</option>
<option value="sg42gr">sg42gr</option>

Ugh... But this is not valid TURKEY solution. You'll have to generate your list l from actual data first anyway.
And look, all those records are indented. What if the whitespace layout makes sense? Just kidding.
This should be done inside the application itself, not in a text editor. e.g. on the js submit event: $("#form").submit(function() { $("#select").val($("#select :selected").val()); });
Or if you fancy, in the PHP/ASP/Ruby/Whatever <?php
$options = new Array("Seller", "Seller2", "Seller3", "sedfBFB", "Sedscdsa", "dfsdvs", "sg42gr");
foreach($i in $options) {
echo "<option value=\"".$i."\">".$i."</option>\n"
}
?>
>>6
To be clear, I was saying duplicating values is good way to create unmaintainable code and it is best if you have all your data, even form option value => text mappings stored in a single place. There are actually some PHP DOM plugins that help immensely with this problem, especially if you need to replicate and manipulate HTML in your PHP.
I've only ever actually needed to do this once (Form spamming web app that scraped a page and replicated the forms on it, allowing arbitrary user configuration and manipulation before repeatedly posting to the form URL) so if you need to go this far, you should probably rethink your entire design.
When I log into my Xenix system with my 110 baud teletype, both vi and Emacs are just too damn slow. They print useless messages like, ‘C-h for help’ and ‘“foo” File is read only’. So I use the editor that doesn't waste my VALUABLE time.

ed - text editor
SYNOPSIS
ed [ - ] [ -x ] [ name ]
DESCRIPTION
Ed is the standard text editor.
Computer Scientists love ed, not just because it comes first alphabetically, but because it's the standard. Everyone else loves ed because it's ED!
“Ed is the standard text editor.”
And ed doesn't waste space on my Timex Sinclair. Just look:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 24 Oct 29 1929 /bin/ed
-rwxr-xr-t 4 root 1310720 Jan 1 1970 /usr/ucb/vi
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 5.89824e37 Oct 22 1990 /usr/bin/emacs
Of course, on the system I administrate, vi is symlinked to ed. Emacs has been replaced by a shell script which 1) Generates a syslog message at level LOG_EMERG; 2) reduces the user's disk quota by 100K; and 3) RUNS ED!!!!!!
“Ed is the standard text editor.”
Let's look at a typical novice's session with the mighty ed:
golem$ ed
Note the consistent user interface and error reportage. Ed is generous enough to flag errors, yet prudent enough not to overwhelm the novice with verbosity.
“Ed is the standard text editor.”

ED IS THE TRUE PATH TO NIRVANA! ED HAS BEEN THE CHOICE OF EDUCATED AND IGNORANT ALIKE FOR CENTURIES! ED WILL NOT CORRUPT YOUR PRECIOUS BODILY FLUIDS!! ED IS THE STANDARD TEXT EDITOR! ED MAKES THE SUN SHINE AND THE BIRDS SING AND THE GRASS GREEN!!
When I use an editor, I don't want eight extra KILOBYTES of worthless help screens and cursor positioning code! I just want an EDitor!! Not a “viitor”. Not a “emacsitor”. Those aren't even WORDS!!!! ED! ED! ED IS THE STANDARD!!!
TEXT EDITOR.
When IBM, in its ever-present omnipotence, needed to base their “edlin” on a Unix standard, did they mimic vi? No. Emacs? Surely you jest. They chose the most karmic editor of all. The standard.
Ed is for those who can remember what they are working on. If you are an idiot, you should use Emacs. If you are an Emacs, you should not be vi. If you use ED, you are on THE PATH TO REDEMPTION. THE SO-CALLED “VISUAL” EDITORS HAVE BEEN PLACED HERE BY ED TO TEMPT THE FAITHLESS. DO NOT GIVE IN!!! THE MIGHTY ED HAS SPOKEN!!!
