Hi all,
Following up my earlier question, since no replies:
I want to use SQLite's html output option to deliver query results
as a series of HTML rows. But I also want to insert extra HTML tags
in the output. How can this be done?
Example:
CREATE TABLE Payroll(name TEXT,age INTEGER,rate REAL);
INSERT INTO Payroll VALUES('Mickey',59,25);
INSERT INTO Payroll VALUES('Donald',54,22.55);
I want to ... get this:
<TR><TD>Mickey</TD>
<TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT>59</TD>
<TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT><B> $25</B></P></TD>
</TR>
<TR><TD>Donald</TD>
<TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT>54</TD>
<TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT><B> $22.55</B></P></TD>
</TR>
I now think this can't be done (using sqlite's .mode html output). So
I think I'll have to create all the html code output myself and
output each row of HTML as one column. For example:
CREATE TABLE Payroll(name TEXT,age INTEGER,rate REAL);
INSERT INTO Payroll VALUES('Mickey',59,25);
INSERT INTO Payroll VALUES('Donald',54,22.55);
SELECT '<TR><TD>' || name || '</TD><TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT>' || age || '</
TD><TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT><B> $' || rate || '</B></P></TD></TR>' FROM
Payroll;
Which gives the desired:
<TR><TD>Mickey</TD>
<TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT>59</TD>
<TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT><B> $25</B></P></TD>
</TR>
<TR><TD>Donald</TD>
<TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT>54</TD>
<TD><P ALIGN=RIGHT><B> $22.55</B></P></TD>
</TR>
But, then I need an alternate way to convert a few characters (at
least & and <) in the fields in my output into the correct html
codes. How can I do this?
Thanks,
Tom
