Re: [ND] URL Tag for a Display Field

[Wehner, John]

I guess when setting the html text for a display field, in this case the <A>
tag, I need to include the original display field as part of the html,
otherwise the intended data for the display field is not displayed.

 public int Manufacturer_onBeforeDisplayEvent(CSpDisplayEvent event)
 {
  ...  if(urlAddress.isNull()){
           urlValueString = mfrName.toString(); }
       else {
           urlValueString = new String("<A href=\"" + urlAddress.toString()
+ "\">" + mfrName.toString() + "</A>");  }

public int Manufacturer_onBeforeHtmlOutputEvent(CSpHtmlOutputEvent event)
 {
  CSpDisplayField field = (CSpDisplayField) event.getSource();
  field.setHtmlText(urlValueString);
  return (PROCEED);
 }

Thanks for your help.
