Replace space

[FredericGirod]

Hi,

I would like to replace each space characater by the ' ' code in a string.

(for HTML presentation)

I try to write a macro to make this job, but .. I'm not able to make it work.

Regards

Frédéric

You can do something like this.

report zrich_0003 .

data: this_string type string.


this_string = 'This is the string'.

while sy-subrc = 0.
  replace space with '&nbsp' into this_string.
endwhile.

write:/ this_string.

You could also use the statement instead of th WHILE loop...

REPLACE ALL Occurrences of space in this_string with '&nbsp'.

Hi Rich,

so, it's exactly what I would like to do, but SAP don't want .

When I use the replace all occurences, I have a dump :

REPLACE_INFINITE_LOOP

<i>"This is the string" -> "This&nbsp;is&nbsp;the&nbsp;string"</i>

That is exactly what this code does..... Or am I missunderstanding you.

Oops, yes, I forgot. You need to specify the length.

report zrich_0003 .


data: this_string type string.
data: length type i.

this_string = 'This is the string'.

length = strlen( this_string ).


REPLACE ALL Occurrences of space in this_string+0(length) with ' '.

write:/ this_string.

Hi,

Yes, it results in dump, bcauz there is no terminating condition to come out of the loop ('all occurrences')

sorry guys, couldnt make translate work.

Try translate command.
