*** if you have that a lot, it might make sense to build a little system
that reads in an html template. within the template you have placeholders
(example ##data##).

you read the html, parse it for place holders and replace the placeholders
dynamically with whatever data you have (eg. just a string, some previous
user input, a database result)

i did build something like that, don't have handy right now. this is the
interface:

public class template {
        public template(String fileName); // create a new template from the
specified file

        public addStringSite(String placeHolder, String replacement); //
replace the placeholder with the replacement string. this adds it into an
internal hashtable

        public play(PrintWriter out); // starts parsing the template file
prints it out until it comes across a placeholder. when it encounters a
placeholder it looks into the hashtable for a replacement and prints that
one out. then it continues.

}


i think this is how it works for me.

hope that helps.

Subject: Need a suggestion for writing a lot of html....


Hello,
I have a lot of html that I am sending to a client
such as
<tr>
<td width="17%"><small><small><font
color="#FF0000"><strong>Bill to Number:</strong></font>
</small></small></td>
<td width="16%"><small><small><input type="text"
name="C1BTNO" size="11"
maxlength="11"></small></small></td>
<td width="33%"></td>
<td width="34%"></td>
</tr>
and I am writing it by
out.println(.....)
out.println(.....)
Now this is becoming really cumbersome to do a
out.println and then insert a \, in front of every " .
Can someone please provide any suggestion on how to
get this done faster.
Thanks,
J
