Hi Folks,
Is it possible to store html styled text in an xml document and then
successfully retrieve the text with html markup intact?
I'm working on an application where I need to save styled text in an
XML document. I can successfully insert the htmlText of the styled
field into the xml document so I end up with a node that looks like
this:
<comments>
Here are my comments.
Some of the text is colored <font color="#FF0000">red</font> &
<font color="#0000FF">blue</font>
</comments>
However, when I read this node in with the revXMLNodeContents()
function the html tags are stripped out and all I get is naked text.
Here's a code snippet:
put revXMLNodeContents(vSessionTreeID,vCurrentComment) into
tCommentTxt
set the htmlText of fld "comments" of cd theCard of stack
"ClipData" to tCommentTxt
When I examine the tCommentTxt variable in the variable watcher I see:
Here are my comments.
Some of the text is colored red & blue
Notice that it correctly rendered the ampersand entity. But the
formatting is gone.
Is there a way to do this? Will I have to resort to saving the
RTFtext in the xml node or something like that?
