That is if you can figure out how to pass all this in a go URL handler.
I've been all over the cookbook and docs looking for a way to pick up
the link inside the <a href="http://www.ibm.com";>thisLink</a> and pass
it from a mouse click in a text field.

One way to accomplish the above is to write an HTML file to the drive and
launch the file. This is a technique I use as a backup for launching a URL
in a non-common browser (such as Earthlink's modified version of IE) and is
roughly equivalent to double-clicking an HTML document on the desktop. It's
not elegant, but it works.


The following is a combination of scripts I use on Mac and Win platforms.
You could add any HTML/Javascript code to the createHTML function to
accomplish whatever result is desired.

<mtmlScript snip="I chopped your source code out"> HERE </mtmlScript>

Scott,


Aren't you clever. I wouldn't have thought of that one. In Director I wrote my own HTML parser that handled <a></a> links by creating arrays of numerical char locations for all hyperlinks in a rendered text field. I parsed out all the "http://..."; codes and stored them in arrays to be used if a hyperlink was clicked. I'm still hoping I won't have to do this in Rev. <a link="http://www.someplace.com";> some text </a> makes "some text" render as a hyperlink. I'm still learning how to pick that link="http://www.someplace.com"; up and use any stored information that relates to each "some text" link clicked. I may be wrong at this point but it looks like you need to make the hyperlink the full URL, "http...," literally.

Mark
