Xhtml tags in text

[MyBrainIsFull]

Hi all,  I am using xhtml to create text at the top of a mem form

My end users want to be able to edit this, so I am putting the text in a tps file as a string, easy and it works.

But when I put tags in the text like <!-- Net:s:Variable -->   I get this returned literally, it is not parsed out - see image.

There must be a procedure somewhere that I can send this string to and get these tags  resolved

   loc:String = p_web.ParseThisPleaseBruce( loc:string )

 T I A

Hi Kevin
Are you saving the tps field value into a SessionVariable before called the Tag?

Hi Terry, I am sending the packet out like this

THIS WORKS OK (a)
packet.append(p_web.AsciiToUTF( ' Your course is <!-- Net:s:Cou:Name --> blah blah blah '&  '',net:OnlyIfUTF,net:StoreAsAscii))   

ie this shows as    "Your course is Woodwork 101"

THIS DOES NOT (b)
packet.append(p_web.AsciiToUTF(  clip(Tok:Content) &  '<13,10>'&  '',net:OnlyIfUTF,net:StoreAsAscii))   
Where tok:content is a text field that holds the same text as in (a)

ie this shows as "Your course is <!-- Net:s:Cou:Name --> "

The plain text in (b) is OK but the  <!-- Net:s:Whatever -->  does not get parsed

Thanks

maybe this?


packet.append(p_web.AsciiToUTF(<39>' &  clip(Tok:Content) &  '<39><13,10>'&  '',net:OnlyIfUTF,net:StoreAsAscii))

Hi Kevin,

I guess there's only a few ways this can be wrong.
I tried to duplicate your problem in example 3.

a) in WebHandler, ProcessLink, before parent call;
  self.SSV('bruce',format(today(),@d6) & ' ' & format(clock(),@t4))

b) In LoginForm, xHtml tab, "Before <form>", Routine Name : one
<div class="red">
Welcome to Example 3
<!-- Net:s:bruce -->
</div>

If I go to the login screen the session value is there - as you are asking for.

So I guess you're doing something different to this?

cheers
Bruce
