[Xerte] Re: Cannot display symbol on pages project

[Dave Burnett]

Johnathan,
If I intercept pageIcon.templateData.annotatedDiagram[projPI].text and replace any instances of < with  <  it then displays properly.
I think it gets escaped and unescaped multiple times in the creation flow, so I thought intercepting it  just prior to display would be the safest way to go.

I'm not sure its a model issue.

Based on some discussions on a recent post I think it is more to do with the movement of data between the flash wizard and the xml file and back again. The process of initially creating the xml data when you first complete the wizard, and then when you re-open the xml data to edit the page and save the changes results in changes to the xml data that affect the way the characters are stored in the xml data.

Kind regards
Johnathan

Sorry the lousy custom search won't find post in the archives.
Here's the text though:
When he uses < the first time he gets an angle bracket but if he goes back to edit the text on a later occasion, angle brackets that worked as angle brackets suddenly become < text again. We’re going to try to replicate it on a couple of pages to show you a before and after. At the moment the workaround is get a page right before leaving it and then don’t edit it again!

Try that.

Alternatively, maybe edit the model a bit so that onLoad it reads in and rewrites the text appropriately .

Hello.
 
I used Annotated Diagram from Interactivity Folder from Pages. I have problem in displaying symbols especially '<' and '∈'. It's thinking that it's a HTML tag. I tried several ways like <pre></pre>, /, \, """, '', to ignore the code, I tried HTML number, HTML name to represent those symbols (e.g < and < for '<') - none worked.

 
Please help,
Suhaila
