Thanks Sarah! I have to say I feel a bit like a *duhh* dog-paddling around in brain soup here. But I'm determined, and definitely progressing daily thanks to all the wonderful readily available documents and examples, as well as all the friendly live help on demand here. :)
Wow, your script even leaves blank lines between paragraphs (though multiple blank ones in some cases) - which is what I was trying to do by adjusting Eric's function, to try and maintain the paragraphs layout somewhat. With no success! Why doesn't "put return & return" work? LOL Anyway, cool thanks for that :) But, just out of interest, is there a way to script "if there are more than one blank line together, get rid of the extras and just have one" ? :D Cheers, Heather who's study strategy is to follow whatever new path is the most intriguing in the moment and forget what she was doing (but doesn't care as long as she is learning SOMEthing). :-| ----- Hi Heather, Welcome to the Revolution and please don't feel bad about asking questions. It's great when people ask beginner level questions as I think a lot of beginners don't like to ask and so get discouraged. Your script for getting the contents of a web page is perfect. For transforming that to plain text, there is a trick which may work if the web page is not too complex. Try this: put url "http://www.thePage.com"; into thePage set the htmlText of the templateField to thePage put the text of the templateField into field "The Page" Cheers, Sarah _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
