C＃String.replace无法正常工作

Question

I have this string from which I want to remove the Hosting html part.

string r = @"2014-09-18 20:59:53|
<!-- Hosting24 Analytics Code -->
<script type=""text/javascript"" src=""http://stats.hosting24.com/count.php""></script>
<!-- End Of Analytics Code -->";

But

r = r.Replace(
@"<!-- Hosting24 Analytics Code -->
<script type=""text/javascript"" src=""http://stats.hosting24.com/count.php""></script>
<!-- End Of Analytics Code -->","");

Is not working. I get the same annoying original string.This has been driving me crazy

Answer 1

From examining your string, it appears you're trying to remove everything after the first bar character. If that's the case, this might work better:

r = r.Split('|')[0];

Answer 2

The code you've posted does remove the string as you are trying to. You can verify this yourself here.

The string you are ultimately examining must come from some other source.
