Greetings again,
The RevBrowser external works great in Metacard, even as far back as
2.7.4. Nonetheless, I'm trying to pass in my own html document
instead of a real web page and it doesn't respond. So, this works fine:
put revBrowserOpen(tWinID,"http://www.google.com";) into
sBrowserId
set the BrowserId of image "BrowserImage" to sBrowserId
But this doesn't:
put "<html><p>This is an example.</p></html>" into myHtmlDoc
put revBrowserOpen(tWinID, myHtmlDoc) into sBrowserId
set the BrowserId of image "BrowserImage" to sBrowserId
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ray Horsley

Anyone with any ideas on how to use <span> tags when setting the
htmlText of a fld? Example:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
span.blue {color:lightskyblue;font-weight:bold}
span.green {color:darkolivegreen;font-weight:bold}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>My mother has <span class="blue">light blue</span> eyes and my
father has <span class="green">dark green</span> eyes.</p>
</body>
</html>
This works fine in any browser, but setting the htmlText of a fld
ignores the <span> tags.
Sorry, Ray... the htmlText of a field only has limited HTML support,
and
<span> tags aren't one of them, nor is any CSS. You'd have to
replace your
<span> tags with old-style <font> tags in order to get what you
want, so you
could do something like this (assuming field 1 contains the actual
HTML and
you want to render it into field 2):
-- watch line wraps
on mouseUp
put fld 1 into tData
put replaceText(tData,"<style.*/style>","") into tData
replace format("<span class=\"blue\">") with format("<font
color=\"lightblue\"><b>") in tData
replace format("<span class=\"green\">") with format("<font
color=\"darkolivegreen\"><b>") in tData
replace "</span>" with "</b></font>" in tData
set the htmlText of fld 2 to tData
end mouseUp
