Subject: Conditionally appending a period? From: MARK.WROTH@xxxxxxxxxxx (Wroth, Mark) Date: Wed, 14 Apr 1999 09:23:17 -0700 |
I need to conditionally append a period to an element's content if there is not already one there. For example, if the element is <dec>foo</dec> => "foo." <dec>foo </dec> => "foo." <dec>foo.</dec> => "foo." Deleting the trailing space (if any) is obviously easy. I don't see an obvious way to deal with the period, though. It seems to me that someone posted a solution to the problem of appending a period iff there is not one there already, so I went looking in the archive. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the relevant discussion (if in fact my memory is not playing tricks on me). Can someone either give me a pointer to that solution, or suggest an approach? Thanks.
