Re: Witango-Talk: Displaying text with links

[Robert Garcia]

something is encoding it on the way in, maybe filemaker, or the method you use to input. Or you are using witango 5, which will do this, unless you say encoding=none. First you need to verify how the database is getting it, if the database is doing this encoding of < to &lt then you need to decode on the way out. Or, bypass the whole thing, by encoding as base64 into the db, and decode out, so the db won't muck it up. --  Robert Garcia President - BigHead Technology VP Application Development - eventpix.com 13653 West Park Dr Magalia, Ca 95954 ph: 530.645.4040 x222 fax: 530.645.4040 [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bighead.net/ - http://eventpix.com/ On May 31, 2006, at 12:10 PM, Dan Stein wrote: I think this is a job for regex but I am not sure how to do it. on 5/31/06 14:37, Dan Stein at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am using FMP to store text with CSS imbedded so I can let my client format descriptions with bold italic colors etc.     So they type this   Recommended for ages 7-13 Visit <a href="" href="http://www.comev.org.br>COMEV.">http://www.comev.org.br>COMEV</a>.   Abraham -- An epic journey to the Promised Land, a miraculous birth to aged parents, and the story of God's greatest test: Abraham must kill his beloved son upon a sacrificial altar.   It loads into the Database this   <BR>Recommended for ages 7-13<BR>Visit &lt;a href="" href="http://www.comev.org.br>COMEV.
