[FMP-field] modifier questions

[ranger]

hey, all.

i recently learned about these modifiers to [FMP-field]. i was able to get the break modifier to work, but i'm having trouble getting the HTML modifier to work. i typed it in as [FMP-field:nameoftextfield, HTML], and i assumed that all i needed to do in the individual record was to type something like blah blah blah <b>blah</b> for it to work, but it didn't. i also tried the <strong> tag. is there something i'm missing? also, what kind of html tags am i limited to? any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks!

I think the "html" encoding is more for protecting special characters like spaces, "<" and ">". If you try "raw" you will see the effects from <b> etc.

Here is the list from the "CDML Reference" Database:

Second parameter (optional): Encoding. Use one of the following reserved words:

Raw - Don't perform any encoding

URL - Perform URL encoding

HTML - (default) Perform HTML encoding

Break - Perform HTML encoding and replace soft returns with <br>

All the best.
