I had to cut the toilet flange off to install new sub floor because it was rotted. The pipe is now too short to connect to a new toilet flange. What do I do? I tried getting off the top piece, but it is in there good.

In the process of removing your floor, did you raise it or did the cast iron line drop? Some material is missing.

The bottom of the flange ring should be sitting on top of the finished floor, not on the subfloor. Is that 3" or 4" pipe? How long is the pipe stub from the cut end to the face of the fitting it's glued into? If you have enough room, you could cut more of the pipe and glue a coupling on it, or you could use a deep insta-set flange, or possibly an internal compression replacement flange.
