Really having trouble with this and can't find any results on it.
I want my html text to utilize the carrots <> for some of my text.
Specifically for a navbar menu item. But I can't seem to build it without activating the text as an actual div.
I want it to say "< Dev>" without using quotes or spaces, but it when I take the quotes/spaces away it activates it as a div. How do I keep the entire message "< Dev>" without turning it into a div item?
E.g:
<p> Welcome to my <Dev> portfolio</p>
Also what is the term used to override reserved code functions as text? Will help me research answers for other issues too. Like when using & as text and not as code.
Thanks for the assistance!
You'll want to use <p> Welcome to my <Dev> portfolio</p>
You can find a list of HTML character codes Here
Try using the html unicode values for those characters instead.
Welcome to my &60Dev&62 portfolio
Sorry it looks like this forum reads those unicode characters and prints them correctly. Add # signs at the after the & characters to get the html code.

I am trying to find an easy way to convert my Word documents to HTML without the awful save-as that is built in. These are structured documents (designed for our screen-reader (JAWS) users), and so they use Heading 1, 2, 3, 4 & the Table of Contents.
We plan to convert these to DAISY audiobooks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DAISY_Digital_Talking_Book ) , so we need pretty clean, but structured, HTML to convert.
I tried the find-replace, using Styles, but it would just replace anything in the text part of the search. I could convert it from any one style to another, but adding text in the box messed it up.
(I think I see that CSS for DAISY means that instead of just <h2> it will have to be <level2 class=='section' <h2> and closing tags), but that's step 2 after I handle this part.)
I just want to be able to find any text using Style 2 and add text to the start of that line saying "yep, here's some style 2" so that I can do the HTML/CSS stuff.
Thanks!
You can do that with a simple Find/Replace. For example, specify the Heading 1 Style for the Find parameter and use:
Replace = <h1>^&</h1>
For a macro you could incorporate that into, see: Convert a Word Range to a String with HTML tags in VBA
I have a problem which is probably trivially easy but I can't seem to get it working. Using this post, I do a search using Regex in a text string to convert any links into html markup, but when it comes to display on the page it just displays like this:
this is link
<a href='http://www.google.com'>http://www.google.com</a>
In the view I have:
<p>#news.Body</p>
edit: great my question is now displaying how I want. So now to the actual question, how do I get the page displaying an actual link instead of the code when displayed to the user.
Use `` around your variable (e.g.)
Use "{}" icon in toolbar to insert code
Indent your code by one empty line, 4 spaces and leading empty line
E.g.:

I create HTML documents from a rst-formated text, with the help of Sphinx. I need to display some Japanese words with furiganas (=small characters above the words), something like that :
I'd like to produce HTML displaying furiganas thanks to the < ruby > tag.
I can't figure out how to get this result. I tried to:
insert raw HTML code with the .. raw:: html directive but it breaks my line into several paragraphs.
use the :superscript: directive but the text in furigana is written beside the text, not above.
use the :role: directive to create a link between the text and a CSS class of my own. But the :role: directive can only be applied to a segment of text, not to TWO segments as required by the furiganas (=text + text above it).
Any idea to help me ?
As long as I know, there's no simple way to get the expected result.
For a specific project, I choosed not to generate the furiganas with the help of Sphinx but to modify the .html files afterwards. See the add_ons/add_furiganas.py script and the result here. Yes, it's a quick-and-dirty trick :(
I need to bold the words inside of double quotes.
title="Character needs to be bold"
When i put <b></b> inside of title's double quote. it just displays them as it is.
So, Is there any way i can bold the characters inside the double quotes?
Are you trying to markup the text inside a title attribute? Because that's not going to work, you'll have to resort to some kind of extended tooltip solution (can be js, but there's also ways to do it with just html/css).
See this question:
Tooltip with HTML content without JavaScript
Some more context would be appreciated though, just the title attribute doesn't give us much information
Title was edited to give context, my answer remains the same.
There is a way depending on the node you are using the 'title' attribute under. See if it has a 'format' attribute as by default the title is set to 'text'. If so, set the format="html", then you will be able to use <b> within your title.
As far as i know you cannot format the string, that is used as the title of a html document. That ist the String, that will get the titel of the tab or window of the browser etc.
If you have a html-entity, that needs formatting, you can format the whole thing with style="your css style", or other css integration. If you have a switch of formatting inside one html entity, you schould look after dividing it up into multiple entities or using another aproach. Do you have a complete example?

use < b > Character needs to be bold < / b>
no spaces in between the b and the symbols
I've got a StyleableTextField in my mobile project, which gets filled with html text using the .htmlText property.
The tag is working fine for me, but simple line breaks or paragraphs are simply ignored. What can I do about that?
Basically, the simplest HTML will just be displayed as a single line:
textField.htmlText = "<p>this should be the first line</p><p>this the second one</p>";
Again, the output is a single line.
The Flex 3 doc states that those tags are definitely supported, so I reckon they simply removed it in the newer versions (which is kinda ridiculous!).
I don't want to use the stagewebview, so what other ways to I have to properly format HTML using the StyleableTextField, or is there a simple replacement for the aforementioned tags?
Thank you very much guys!
Make sure that multiline is set to true, otherwise it will treat it as a single line of text, effectively ignoring the formatting.
