FM Created HTML

I was wondering if anyone could help me with a problem that I am having. I have created a FM 4.0 database that writes HTML into a single field (called HTML) based on the results of numerous other fields.

I am attempting to access this through the web, so that someone would be able to log in using a password, and be returned a web page consisting of the contents of the HTML field as a portion of the page that is returned. I am having problems with the CDML, in that I can get it to return the HTML field to the user, but what they see is the HTML coding itself.

I want them to see the web page as the HTML field would format it. If anyone could help me in this, I would greatly appreciate it.

I thought you could do this with CDML, but it appears that this is a feature that is only suppored in the full version of Lasso (from which CDML derives).

Perhaps someone with more experience with CDML can offer a workaround?

Sure this can be done with CDML but it needs custom format files. Just make sure to specify the CDML field tag to be "raw" like this...

[FMP-Field: fieldname, raw]

... so that Web Companion doesn't convert the <, > and & symbols to their http equivilents.

Web Companion can do most things that Lasso can... it *is* Lasso! (Albeit an early version.)
