Re: Converting fm files to xml
Daniel, 1) Is another attribute written instead of the href attribute? 2) Are you sure your r/w rules are being read? It could be a search path issue. Does your application definition (probably in structapps.fm) specify a complete pathname for the rules file. (One simple way to verify that the correct file is being read is to add a new rule with a syntax error and confirm that FM reports the syntax error.) --Lynne At 05:54 AM 6/10/2008, Daniel Osborn wrote: Dear Framers, I am trying to save lots of .fm files as .xml in FM 7.2.

Converting fm files to xml
Dear Framers, I am trying to save lots of .fm files as .xml in FM 7.2. I've written an application and when I save a single .fm file as .xml it works fine. When I use the Utility: File Utilities Convert structured documents, something goes wrong. The conversion runs fine but the 'href' attribute for the images is not included in the output files. My rules file includes the line: attribute href is fm property file; And, as I say, when I save an individual file as xml it's fine, so it looks like a bug.
