Thanks for the detailed replies! Yes, you are right. I should've given more info about my use case. I had some HTML that I was using for an email signature for my organization. Every time we have a new officer, I would dig out and hand edit an existing signature in a dumb text file. This worked as far as it goes, but when I wanted to make a change to the design, I'd have to hand edit them all. So, I thought, let's just do it automagically in Pharo! But then I ended up with a weird hybrid approach where: - PRO: I broke the HTML up into smaller logical pieces in Pharo methods - CON: The individual pieces were still just dumb text (e.g. I had to read through a string to pick out which parts belong to which tag/attribute/inner-text) - CON: I lost the ability to deal with the HTML in its own domain (e.g. open it in Dreamweaver and live edit) I reckoned that I should fully commit to one approach. Either have an HTML template file(s) which Pharo manipulates, or break up the HTML fully into a domain representation. So my goal is to have something which outputs HTML suitable for an email signature based on HTML which I already have in text/file form. ----- Cheers, Sean -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
