I need to concatenate several text members into one new member.
The script below works, but all hyperlinks in the text are lost:
repeat with CurrMem in locMemList
member("NewMem").rtf = member("NewMember").rtf && member("CurrMemr").rtf
end repeat
I suppose the rtf of member doesn't know anything about hyperlinks.
This other script does preserve the hyperlinks, but messes up many of the
characters in the 128-255 ANSI range:
repeat with CurrMem in locMemList
member("NewMem").html = member("NewMember").html && member("CurrMemr").html
end repeat
For example, try putting the smart quotes (dec 132 and 148) into a text member
and then trace the member's HTML: you'll see that they are represented by HTML
entities Ñ and Ó respectively (in Windows). Now try this:
member(1).html = "<html><head><title></title><body>Ñ
Ó</body></html>"
and you'll see very different characters in the member's text, not the smart
quotes.
Director does this with several other characters in the upper-ANSI; they do not
survive the round trip in the HTML property.
How can I accomplish what I want?
Thanks,
Slava
