Robert, I've complained enough about it, what else can you do? Before you complain further you should try pasting HTML text into a RunRev Field ;)
Goodbye returns! You have to go to ultraedit to paste first and then to RR... Usually all the styles are jumbled because of bad html or the lineheight don't resize correctly or the tables are gone or the characters entities, etc, etc... You can always use the DiscreteBrowser to parse HTML correctly back into correct RR styled text. But RTF is rare to find these days so that didn't make it... http://www.monsieurx.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=142 Im currently writing an SQL convert from SQL to stack and vice versa! My SQL server is inaxessible except via copy paste in PHPMyAdmin! And copy paste from Iexplorer to RR just screws up the lines... Talk about editing pains! Im working on a new discrete browser version so I might do the rtf later... CSS, XML are planned before though... I might post the latest beta in the test lab urls later ;) http://www.monsieurx.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=12 If you hit my paypal with the right force on MonsieurX.com I just might twist the priorities on the fetures plan ;) Cheers Xavier -- (copy paste failing again in RR - no quote today) > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Robert Brenstein > Sent: Monday, October 11, 2004 6:31 PM > To: How to use Revolution > Subject: Re: RTF text > > >Mr. X, > > > >I can do this if Revolution doesn't.
