Multiple equal sign in INI file

[stefionesco]

I have an INI file that contains some equal sign in the key of one of the section. Something like this:

[section]

https://www.google.ro/#safe=active&q=test = link_value

When I read the value is giving me as a result this "test = link_value".

I tried backslash, quotes, but nothing.

How can I skip the first equal sign?

Thanks

Wouldn't

link_value = https://www.google.ro/#safe=active&q=test

be more sensible?

stefionesco,

When I test I get:

Row |Col 0                           |Col 1
[1] |https://www.google.ro/#safe     active&q=test = link_value

which is what I would expect.

If you create the ini files as part of your script, why not reverse the key/value pairs so as to avoid the problem?

Edit: Hi water - great minds, eh?

Oh, my God... I never thought about this solution. Yes, indeed... Great minds.

@stefionesco, see this.

Hi, there

I'm trying to make an application that search for subtitle for some movies, on Romanian subtitle site.
It seems to be an error in my script but I can't figure where. I think it's something about the fact that the value in every section contains equal sign.
I put in every section of INI file a link with both, English and Romanian subtitle, and a link that doesn't have none of them. Every search I made result positive with both subtitles in both links.
Where is the error?

Here is the script and the data.ini file.

data.ini

[water]

There is absolutely no error checking in your script. Example: When data.ini is not available your script crashes.
Add error checking after each function call and your script will show where you hit an error.

[stefionesco]

But data.ini is always available. 

Only the results is:

Quote

[My Fair Lady (1964)]
Romana=Romanian
Engleza=English
[Sauce Tartare (1949)]
Romana=Romanian
Engleza=English

and should be only this:

Quote

[My Fair Lady (1964)]
Romana=Romanian
Engleza=English

 

 

[water]

That was just an example. I wanted to tell you that if an error occurs it goes unnoticed.

Anyhow, the results is the same, as I said before. It marks me in the Result file ALL the links, not only the links which satisfied the condition.

The example I made before is for the first section (Radio1 - Audrey Hepburn) but didn't work well for any of the other sections.

Edit: And I don't get any error message.

I found the error. As Water said:

12 hours ago, water said:

There is absolutely no error

Every link open a page that contain a drop-down menu that contains the word I've search, so the result was always positive. I change with some other word and now work just fine.

Now I'm thinking if it is possible to unify in some way all the "if"s in one unique "If", using something like Radio-X where X=1, or 2, or 3? The same for the Section-X. 

This example I use here have only 3 Radio buttons, but the final script will have about 40 radio buttons and I'm trying to minimize the script. Do you think it's possible?

Thanks.
