Yes: don't use htmlText. Actually, I've never even tried using the htmlText
property- I hand-code my templates which I store in fields as raw HTML. But
it certainly would be easier if I could just style my fields and rely on
htmlText for the conversion. Perhaps the easiest runaround right now would be
a getprop handler which used a base font size and converted everything to
relative sizes? What about something roughly like this:
(not tested, not efficient?)
<PRE>
getprop relativeHtmlText
put the baseFontSize of the target into baseSize
if (baseSize is empty) then put 12 into baseSize
put the htmlText of the target into theText
put 0 into startOffset
put 1 into theOffset
repeat
## find FONT tag
put offset("<FONT SIZE=", theText, startOffset) into theOffset
if (theOffset = 0) then exit repeat
add startOffset to theOffset
## find beginning and end of SIZE attribute
put theOffset+11 into startSize
put offset(" ", theText, startSize) into endSize
if (endSize = 0) then exit repeat
add startSize to endSize
put char startSize to (endSize - 1) of theText into fontSize
if (fontSize is a number) then
## replace all occurences at once
put round(fontSize*100/baseSize)&"%" into relativeFontSize
replace "<FONT SIZE="&fontSize&space with "<FONT
SIZE="&relativeFontSize&space in theText
end if
## skip over this tag for next iteration
put startSize + length(relativeFontSize) into startOffset
end repeat
end relativeHtmlText
</PRE>
