Try this command to set the browsers source to any data you want:

revBrowserSet["htmltext"] to the text of field 1

I don't think you can get the content of a htmlform from the browser object directly. Also that seems rather backwards to me, htmlform fields have even less build in styling possibilities then rev fields. You might try to select the entered text manually (might also be possible with javascript), and look if you get anything afterwards by using this:

put revBrowserGet(BrowserID, "selected") into field 1

Hi all,

I am happy with the new browser features the newest beta/release candidate has. It can display HTML files, both online and offline.

But how about data in a stack? Suppose I have a field or a variable containing XHTML with CSS. I cannot set the htmlText of a field to that without losing layout elements.

I could setup the stack as CGI and navigate the browser to http://127.0.0.1/form.cgi, but that is a lot of overhead.

A better workaround is to write the content to a text file and then navigate the browser element to file:///Users/my/Desktop/whatever.html. But it is still a workaround.

So I wonder: is there also a DIRECT way to do that?

Also, I understand that it is 'impossible' (yet) to edit text in the browser :-) But what about form entries? Can the stack receive feedback from the browser in any way?
