I've recently installed Contour for a client and in one of the questions in the form there's an ampersand (&) but its rendering as &
I've tried rendering the form both in RTE and via the template itself but still the same result.
The client is running Umbraco v4.7.2 and Contour v3.0.6
Thanks in advance
Let me try a few suggestions in hopes that you can let us know what you are experiencing...
On the template are you using an inline macro (i.e. - calling the content using #Model.bodyContent) or,
Are you calling the umbraco field with <umbraco:Item field="bodyContent" runat="server" />
If you are calling the value from within a macro, try wrapping the output in #Html.Raw(bodyContent)
Secondly, try using the form picker datatype that comes with Contour. Add it to your doctype and render the form using the RenderMacroContent method. If you need the full script to get this working let me know in reply, but this link (https://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/umbracolibrary/rendermacrocontent) should help.
Finally, check the contour files and edit the ContourForm.cshtml file. Try using #Html.Raw() around the #f.Caption output within the <label> tag.
It is hard to be too specific without some additional clues and troubleshooting, but this is where I would start. Any additional information you can provide will allow me to edit my answer and provide more assistance.

Currently, I am working on a program that converts an html page into a PDF using the iText Library.
The Checker that I am using is PAC3 -->PDF Accessibility Checker 3 which is described by the following link (https://section508.gov/blog/check-pdf).
One of the issues is the “Alternate description missing for an Annotation”
An excerpt from the following link explains it:
http://www.uottawa.ca/respect/sites/www.uottawa.ca.respect/files/fss-fixing-accessibility-errors-in-pdfs.pdf
Alternative description missing for an annotation This usually happens when the link is not clear enough. To fix this error, add alternative text to the link tags. To add the alternative text, please do the following;
In the tag tree, select the tag for the link, and select Properties
from the options menu.
In the Touchup Properties dialog box, select
the Tag Tab.
Type alternate text for the link, and click close
I have been trying to use iText to fix this problem, but googling, looking at the source and reading the documentation does not help.
Does anybody have any suggestions on how to either write the HTML or use the itext problem to get rid of the “Alternate description missing for an Annotation”
Thank you for your help
You did not specify whether you using old code (XMLWorker, HTMLWorker) or new iText code (pdfHTML).
This of course impacts the proposed solution.
In my answer I am going to assume you are using pdfHTML
There are several options:
edit the incoming HTML using a library like JSoup
convert the incoming HTML to iText IElement objects, and edit those, setting properties where needed
write your own custom TagWorker that handles all instances of a specific tag, and write custom logic to deal with the missing annotations.
An example of a custom tag worker can be found here:

I have a HTML page that displays a SVG element (a Business process diagram) using some javascript libraries. A String variable, say 'str' needs to be given to html function.
After reading this, I plan to use widgets. So far I understand that I need to copy all scripts to Widgets: Test. For creating the hook, I write
{{#widget:Test|str=UserTask_1}}
The problem is that UserTask_1 is a variable as well. It is different each time.
Can someone help how can I add this dynamic information to my hook? This hook is a hyperlink from a previous page. In the previous page, I send the str=UserTask_1 through JavaWiki Bot.
PS: I have come-across SMW for first time. Please excuse if my language is not very technical at the moment.
Thanks.
I have an control, to which I want to add a custom html attribute called, previousValue.
The Salesforce Developer's Guide assures me that I can do this by prefixing the attribute name with html-.
So I have an element that appears thus:. I also have the docType="html-5.0" attribute in my page control.
However, in Eclipse I get an 'unsupported attribute' error. I have upgraded to the latest force.com IDE; can any one tell me why this isn't working? What else do I need to do?
Thanks.
After much experimentation, the answer to this seems to be that the salesforce developer's guide is inaccurate and the 'hmtl-' prefix is not supported by the <apex:inputField> component. I can add it without a problem to an <apex:outputPanel> component. Don't understand why this should be so and the whole point to using these attributes is to locate data in a relevant place and avoid complex jquery selects to find the data relative to the location at which it is required.
This is a rather simple question, but I cannot find documentation about it from Salesforce.
I am setting up an HTML Newsletter from Salesforce Vertical Response, and I need to put a link in the body of the email that goes to another site which takes the user's email address as a query string. I am doing this so that when the user clicks the link from the HTML email, they will automatically be signed up for a different blog mailing list.
The link will look like this www.mywebsite.com/blog/subscribe?email=your_email#email.com.
I can easily accomplish this by using the {EMAIL_ADDRESS} variable, such that the link looks like this:
Subsribe
This workds, but when the user gets the email and clicks the link, the '#' symbol gets stripped from the URL. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get around this. I saw some documentation on the URLENCODE() function for SalesForce, but when I try to use it in the HTML email editor in SalesForce, like URLENCODE({EMAIL_ADDRESS})it doesn't execute it, and instead interprets it literally as text. Can anyone help me? is it even possible to use functions from within the SalesForce HTML email editor?
Thanks
I havent used VerticalResponse, but if it leans on salesforce communication templates then you can always create an email template as Visualforce page. Then you can apply Encode functions to merge fields.
I'm glad you were able to find a workaround. If you ever go back to dealing with the URL, it's a good idea to disable our click-tracking when working with merge fields. This can be accomplished by adding nr_ before the http. Example: Subsribe - If you ever try that and it doesn't work, or if you have any other questions, please let us know via one of our Support channels:

I write an application and inside of HTML code I have custom tags (of course these tags are parsed on server side and end user gets them as valid HTML code). Example of custom tag usage:
<html>
<body>
...
<Gallery type="grid" title="My Gallery" />
...
</body>
</html>
1.) How can I have eclipse recognize my custom tags inside of HTML code and add syntax highlighting to them?
2.) How can I add auto-suggestions to my custom tags? For example if I type "<Gallery " press "Ctrl+Space" - in the list of available attributes it shows me "type" and "title" and if I type "<Gallery type=" press "Ctrl+Space" I would see list of available values only for tag "Gallery" and its attribute "type".
Thanks in advance!
Not really what you want, but maybe it helps you:
You can try the Aptana Plug-in for Eclipse. It allows to write your own regular expression for HTML validation, so a custom tag would be ignored by the validator.
E.g.:
.gallery.
Eclipse allows you to add simple auto-suggestions via Templates. On
Eclipse 3.7.1 (Indigo) + PHP Dev Tools (PDT) 3.0.0: Window > Preferences > Web > HTML Files > Editor > Templates
Sadly, there is no easy way: you have to roll your own parser for this, and then add both your extra elements and the base grammar (HTML) to it.
If you have your parser, you could use it to do syntax highlighting (strictly speaking, for that simple lexing is enough); and a good parser can support content assist (auto-suggestions in your terminology).
Caveats:
Creating a parser for HTML is not an easy task. Maybe by aiming at a more often used subset is feasible.
If a parser exists, the editor parts are still hard to get well.
Some help on the other hand: you could use some text editor generators to ease your work:
Eclipse IMP http://www.eclipse.org/imp/ can in theory handle any type of parser, but currently it is most optimized for LPG. The documentation is scarce, but the developers are helpful in the forums.
Xtext http://www.eclipse.org/Xtext/ got quite a hype for creating text editors for DSLs. The generated editors are quite nice out of the box, but is not the best solution for large files. Has a really helpful developer community.
EMFText http://www.emftext.org/index.php/EMFText is a lesser known entity - I don't know it in details, but I guess, it is similar to Xtext.
I know its been a long time since this Q was asked,
but I hope this might help others like myself that reach this in search of a solution.
So, When using Eclipse (Mars.1 Release (4.5.1) - and possibly earlier - I did not check).
Go to Window - Prefrences
Then in the dialog that opens go to Web - HTML Files - Editor - Validation.
On the right side:
under Ignore specified element names in validation and enter the list of custom elements you use. (e.g. Gallery,tab,tabset,my-element-directives-*)
you might also like to go under Ignore specified attribute names in validation do the same for your custom attributes.(e.g. ng-*,my-attr-directives-*)
Two things to note:
After letting eclipse do a full validation you must also close the file and reopen it to have the warnings removed from the source code.
Using this method would ignore those attributes under any element. I don't think there is a simple way to tell it to ignore some-attribute only if its a child of some-element.
I find templates are an ok alternative but let's see if we can encourage a more robust solution; please take a moment and vote for this: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=422584
You need to add a new HTML template.To add a new template, complete the following steps:
1) From the Window menu, select Preferences.
2) In the Preferences page, select Web and XML > HTML Files > HTML Templates.
3) Click New.
4) Enter the new template name and a brief description of the template.
5) Using the Context drop-down list, specify the context in which the template is available.
6) In the Pattern field, enter the appropriate tags, attributes, or attribute values (the content of the template) to be inserted by content assist.
7) If you want to insert a variable, click the Variable button and select the variable to be inserted. For example, the word_selection variable indicates the word that is selected at the beginning of template insertion, and the cursor variable determines where the cursor will be after the template is inserted in the HTML document.
8) Click OK to save the new template.
You can edit, remove, import, or export a template by using the same Preferences page.
