From: hbj@cableinet.co.uk
Hi Steve, thanks.
I have done sone of the work, what I am trying to do is isolate the file
names. I have the beginnings of them pruned
here are a few examples of what I have so far:
"a01i.html">"A-1"
"a02i.html">Douglas XA-2
"a03i.html">Curtiss A-3 Falcon
"a04i.html">Curtiss XA-4
"a05i.html">Curtiss XA-5
"a06i.html">Curtiss XA-6
"a07i.html">General Aviation (Fokker) XA-7
So what I want to do is clear everything out after the html.
The " at the beginning is no problem, that's obvious.
Thanks for your help
