Default hyperlink export to html - 07-27-2003 , 04:28 AM






Hello filemaker friends,

For the soccer club i am making a filemaker database in which i can put
al the results of the soccer games. Then i have a script that export the
results of every team, so i get about 50 html pages.
Now some teams make foto's or a report of the game. Those things are on
an other server. No I want the export text comes like this :

<TD>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.as80.nl/verslag/verslage2_230703&quot;
Quote:
hier&lt;a></TD
It is replacing the < and > and " signs by &lt; and &quot;. Is there a
solution for this ?

I read some thisngs about the xml exoprt, but I have no idea what to do
whith the result of this output.

Thanx.

Koos

It's an unfortunate thing - FileMaker is doing it's best to make
the text field look right on the web, that is, that is *shows*
as <a href="http://www.as80.nl/verslag/verslage2_230703">hier</a>
even though you want it as raw HTML code.

I don't think there is a direct answer for this... Personally,
I'd use the web engine that is built into FileMaker and
directly serve the files to the web using CDML, but that is
one of the things I do for a living and I've got the machines
to do it with ;-)

Cheers

Webko

I read some thisngs about the xml exoprt, but I have no idea what to do
whith the result of this output.
I'm not sure how to correct that in FMP without extensive scripting.
Perhaps the simplest solution would be to try WebMerge, which generates
Web pages from exported database content:
