how to open large html files

(1/3) > >>

kalos:
hello

is there a program that can open a 42 MB html file?

thanks

Veign:
emEditor will open it without a problem.

Question is what are you doing with a 42MB html file?  What's its use?

kalos:
it is a combined file of many html files that I need to extract the text (by the way most text extraction programs don't work)

emeditor opens it as text, but I need it in web view

JavaJones:
"In web view" e.g. as a web browser would view it? Ugh, good luck getting something to parse it that way. Maybe some kind of progressive rendering scheme would work (see Slashdot.org front page), but it'd take forever and probably bring most any browser to its knees.

What kind of text extraction do you need?

If you're lucky, perhaps a bit of regex magic could do the extraction... a bit less lucky (and very wellformed HTML) an XML parsing library could probably be used... but no way to tell unless you give some more details :)
