Column text in html

I would like to turn a long alphabetized list of items into
3, side-by-side, equal length columns (ala newspaper columns). I
can do this easily in MS Word by selecting the list and clicking a
button for 3 columns of text.
Is there a way to do this in DW, say within a table or
div?

static page with straight html? no easy way. You would lay it
out manually
with you deciding where the columns break.

Place in the center the column texts

Hi BW knowledge broadcasters,
I am looking for the method to place in the center the column texts. It seems it could be in the css implemented in the WAD web template. But I don't know neither for the queries built directly with the Query Designer.
Thanks in advance.
Geo

One problem you will encounter is that the column headers and the rows have the same class associated to them and if you set this to center, your rows will also be centered. You will need to either use the Table API to change the class of just the column headers or possibly with javascript. To find the class, run the query in the web, right-click and select view source, search for the text in the columns and find the associated class referenced in the HTML.
Here is a link to all of the styles in the standard BWReports.css:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bw33/helpdata/en/3f/ca453afbf37b54e10000000a11402f/content.htm">http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bw33/helpdata/en/3f/ca453afbf37b54e10000000a11402f/content.htm</a>
This is specific to BW 3.x. In 2004s, the styles are now driven from the Portal theme.

ID CS3 - text wrap doesn't work at the end of a long multi-columned text frame

Did a search - don't think this specific issue has been addressed:
We design large graphics often used on walls. When working with a text frame that that was 11 feet long and had 8 columns, text wrap would not work on an image placed in the last column. The same image with the same text wrap applied will work fine anywhere else in the text frame. I found that if I shortened the width of the text frame a little bit at a time eventually it would work, but there doesn't seem to be a specific cut-off width - sometimes the last column won't text wrap when the frame is 115 inches wide and sometimes it doesn't work when the frame is only 80 inches wide. Again, all of the other columns work fine. I have tried all of the obvious stuff, the only variable between the columns that wrap and the one that doesn't is it's position at the end of the text frame.
We have gotten around this issue by using multiple threaded frames instead of one long frame with multiple columns, but I am curious if anyone else has run into this or might know what the issue is.
thanks

How to include text as HTML elements (see DOMElement)

I am working with Flash PRO CC v. 14.0. to convert my Flash website to HTML5 / javascript
I have converted a file to the HTML5 Canvas
I am very happy that the new Flash Pro has the feature to convert to HTML5 canvas
HOWEVER:
In my original .FLA file project I use only one font: Copperplate Bold. I use several sizes of that font within the project / scene
In the original file for all text I use static text, Letter spacing, AntiAlias, AutoKern and single line (Linetype)
- none of which the HTML5 canvas seem to allow / support?
How do I maintain the FONT look that I have chosen in my original FLASH project, after I convert to HTML5 canvas?
Is there a way in the HTML canvas to maintain the FONT look that I want?
HTML5 canvas will not allow Font embedding
The device font destroys the LOOK of my Copperplate Bold font.
How do I include text as HTML elements (see DOMElements)?
WARNINGS generated when I convert the original file into an HTML Canvas:
Warnings generated while copying/importing in 140827a HTML test.fla:
* AntiAlias is not supported in HTML5 Canvas document, and has been converted to DeviceFonts in an instance of Text.
* AutoKern is not supported in HTML5 Canvas document, and has been removed in an instance of Text.
* Frame Scripts have been commented
* LetterSpacing is not supported in HTML5 Canvas document, and has been converted to 0.0 in an instance of Text.
* LineType is not supported in HTML5 Canvas document, and has been converted to MultiLineNoWrap in an instance of Text.
* Some artwork contains Hairline stroke, which is not supported in HTML5 Canvas document, and has been converted to Solid.
* StaticText is not supported in HTML5 Canvas document, and has been converted to DynamicText in an instance of Text.
New HTML Canvas Document created.
NOTE: So far the only way I have been able to maintain the font look is to convert the fonts to .png files
This is painstaking work that I would like to avoid.
Even then I still get a WARNING when I test my scene - (no doubt because I left the original FONT text in guide layers)
After conversion ON TEST SCENE:
WARNINGS:
Frame numbers in EaselJS start at 0 instead of 1. For example, this affects gotoAndStop and gotoAndPlay calls. (18)
Only circular (not oval) radial gradients are supported. (85)
Text support is limited. It is generally recommended to include text as HTML elements (see DOMElement). (6)
Color effects are published as a filter and subject to the same limitations. (4)
Filters are very expensive and are not updated once applied. Cache as bitmap is automatically enabled when a filter is applied. This can prevent animations from updating. (2)
Content with both Bitmaps and Buttons may generate local security errors in some browsers if run from the local file system.
HOW CAN I MAINTAIN the FONT LOOK that I have chosen for my project?
How do I include text as HTML elements (see DOMElements)?
ANY HELP will be appreciated
A good, in depth, tutorial on the subject (FONTS) would be a BIG help to many using the convert to HTML5 canvas features.

GOOGLE HAS
https://www.google.com/fonts
choose a font from above site
then:
google generates instructions on how to embed that font
Montserrat
3. Add this code to your website:
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Montserrat:400,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
4. Integrate the fonts into your CSS:
The Google Fonts API will generate the necessary browser-specific CSS to use the fonts. All you need to do is add the font name to your CSS styles. For example:
font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;
font-family: 'Ubuntu', sans-serif;
font-family: 'Montserrat Alternates', sans-serif;
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;

Two-column text

This is driving me nuts. It's not that often that I import text into InDesign. I've got two column page formats set up for an index. I'm placing the index text, which is an RTF file, into this two-column format. And, it just boringly splats itself right across the whole page, damn the two columns. What's this about? Why can't imported text adhere to the columns that are set up?
Thanks,
Peter

Yeh, I fixed it, finally. Yes, I had to click, click, click in the text frame and make sure I saw a blinking cursor in there. I actually typed in some text and verified that it was wrapping in the first column, not spanning. Then, I placed my file. And, it finally came in right. I guess you just have to be totally sure that your cursor's there in the 2-column textbox. Sometimes when I brought in the text, it literally create another single-column text frame, on top of the two-column one!
Thanks, everyone.

Columns & Text Flow Query

My document set-up is two columns. I want to insert images with captions in the left column and text-only in the right column.
I would like to have right column text contain itself within the right column. Ditto for the left column. I do not want continuous right column text to flow into the top of the left column on the next page.
I have tried many things but nothing works. If I set up with a narrow right column, I can get the images in but cannot type any text. I am sure that I do have to have two columns but I want them separate from each other.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dennis,
Sorry I'm late on this. Thought I would get an e-mail notice of your post. Guess that is what 'Subscribe' is about.
Yes, I checked out the Pages Help and was good to go. I do not, however, seem to get the new, continuous box to work thus far. I am assuming, correctly or incorrectly, that the text will flow into the 'linked' text box which will be on a new page. So, I so have to sit down for an hour or so and figure this out. Most of what I am inserting into the text boxes is already written. Anyway, thanks or all of your help. Very nice of you to take your time on this.
OK! Back to the Seahawks. They must, and I mean MUST beat the Panthers. Their coach, in my opinion, is the essence of arrogance. I don't mind the best team winning, after all , that is what it's all about, but he just seems to relish the other teams loss. They destroyed the Chicago Bears, but I never believed that the Bears were intense enough to be a real contender.
I may be from Chicago, but my heart was with the Patriots to take it all. If their ball carrier's could have concentrated on doing what they were supposed to do - catch and then hold on to the ball - they could have made a game of it. However, I was born in New Mexico, so the Bronco's are okay as well. That's the problem when you like too many teams. I like the Seahawk coach because I like Green Bay and he did an awesome job while he was there. I know, I should get a job as a sports announcer. Ok! Enough of this.
Thanks again, and I'll be rooting for the Seahawks this Sunday. And the Bronco's.

Creating a two columns text reflow

Hi
I'm trying to create a two column page which needs to get data that will fill the columns. Upon filling one column, the text will need to reflow to the next one (as much as a two column text frame in a layout program does).
Is it possible in a Designer ES? (version 8.2.1.5161.1.566259) What is the best practice to do so?
Thanks,
Yossi Maoz

Are you trying to make it an interactive form or are you going to merge data onto the template and make a print form? In either case I modified your sample. The root Page subform must be set to flowed. You do not need a field in the second content area. I resized the 1st field to make it easier. I changed the layout to allow the field to expand in the Y direction (on the layout tab). I cahnged the Form Properties/Preview to Interactive so that I coudl enter in data. Now when the field fills up scroll bars will appear and when you tab off of the field the field will be redrawn to its actual size. Enter in enough data to case a page overflow and you will see the second column fill up.

Problem to extract text from HTML document

I have to extract some text from HTML file to my database. (about 1000 files)
The HTML files are get from ACM Digital Library. http://portal.acm.org/dl.cfm
The HTML page is about the information of a paper. I only want to get the text of "Title" "Abstract" "Classification" "Keywords"
The Problem is that I can't find any patten to parser the html files"
EX: I need to get the Classification = "Theory of Computation","ANALYSIS OF ALGORITHMS AND PROBLEM COMPLEXITY","Numerical Algorithms and Problem","Mathematics of Computing","NUMERICAL ANALYSIS"......etc .
The section code about "Classification" is below.
Please give any idea to do this, or how to find patten to extract text from this.

One approach is to download Htmlparser from sourceforge
http://htmlparser.sourceforge.net/ and write the rules to match title, abstract etc.
Another approach is to write your own parser that extract only title, abstract etc.
1. tokenize the html file. --> convert html into tokens (tag and value)
2. write a simple parser to extract certain information
find out about the pattern of text you want to extract. For instance "<class "abstract">.
then writing a rule for extracting abstract such as
if (tag is abstract ) then extract abstract text
apply the same concept for other tags
Attached is the sample parser that was used to extract title and abstract from acm html files. Please modify to include keyword and other fields.
good luck

How can a 2 column text frame be split into 2 separate text frames?

Hi InDesigners,
I have a 12 spread (22 page) document that was originally created with a single column primary text frame in CS6. It contains text and anchored images throughout the doc. (images are anchored to the text frame).
My client now wants each page split into 2 columns, but the columns need to have different widths - the left column needs to be narrower than the right. Although I can create 2 columns in a single frame, it's not possible to adjust the column widths separately, so I need to get them into 2 separate frames.
Is there a way to convert a 2 column text frame into 2 separate text frames, so I can resize the column widths invididually?
kind regards,
-c

hi, Thanks for the replies,
The doc size is 8.5"x11", with 1/2 " margins. I never mentioned anything about it being a book. (It's just a paper my client wrote and woud like a PDF of it). The reason for the uneven columns is he wants the images to be 4" wide. For some reason, he wasn't keen on just a single column with text wrapped around the pix. I proposed making a 3" left column threaded into a 4" right col with a .5" gutter between them and he wants it that way.
Thank you both for your respones. I'll try the script

Read Text from HTML-Pages and want to solve "ChangedCharSetException"

Hello,
I have an app that connect via threads with pages and parse them an gives me only the Text-version of a HTML-page. Works fine, but if it found a page, where the text is within images, than the whole app stopps and gave me the message:
javax.swing.text.ChangedCharSetException

Then I looked at the web and found, that I have to add the line:

How to convert a Word document to text or html in an ABAP program

Hi,
At my client's site, for the recruitment system, they have the word processing system set to RTF, instead of SAP Script. This means that all the correspondence is in Word format. A standard SAP program takes the word letter, loads word, does the mail merge with the applicant's info and then sends the document to a printer.
The program name is RPAPRT05. The program creates a document proxy (interface I_OI_DOCUMENT_PROXY) and manipulates the document using the methods of the interface.
Now what we want to do is to instead of sending the document to a printer, we want to email the document contents to the applicant. But I don't know how to get the content from the Word document into text or html format so that I can make an email from it.
I know I can send an email with the word document as an attachment, but we'd prefer not to do that.
I would appreciate any help very much.
Thanks

Ok, here's what I ended up doing:
First of, in order to call FM 'CONVERT_RTF_TO_ITF' you need the RTF document in a table with line length 156. The document is returned from FM 'DP_CREATE_URL' in a table with line length 132. So first I convert the table:
 Transform data table from 132 character lines to
 256 character lines
 LOOP AT data_table INTO dataline.
 IF newrow = 'X'.
 Add row to new table
 APPEND INITIAL LINE TO xdatatab ASSIGNING .
 newrow = space.
 ENDIF.
 Convert the raw line of old table to characters
 ASSIGN dataline TO .
 Check line lengths to determine how to add the
 next line of old table
 newlinelen = STRLEN( newline ).
 ADD addspaces TO newlinelen.
 linepos = linemax - newlinelen.
 IF linepos > datalen.
 Enough space available in new table line for all of old table line
 newline+newlinelen = oldline.
 oldlinelen = STRLEN( oldline ).
 addspaces = datalen - oldlinelen.
 CONTINUE.
 ELSE.
 Fill up new table line
 newline+newlinelen(linepos) = oldline(linepos).
 ASSIGN newline TO .
 newrow = 'X'.
 Save the remainder of old table to the new table line
 IF linepos < datalen.
 oldlinelen = STRLEN( oldline ).
 addspaces = datalen - oldlinelen.
 CLEAR newline.
 newline = oldline+linepos.
 ELSE.
 CLEAR newline.
 ENDIF.
 ENDIF.
 ENDLOOP.
 Write the last line to the table
 IF newrow = 'X'.
 APPEND INITIAL LINE TO xdatatab ASSIGNING .
Next I call FM 'CONVERT_RTF_TO_ITF' to get the document in SAPScript format:
 Convert the RTF format to SAPScript
 CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_RTF_TO_ITF'
 EXPORTING
 header = dochead
 x_datatab = xdatatab
 x_size = xsize
 IMPORTING
 with_tab_e = withtab
 TABLES
 itf_lines = itf_table
 EXCEPTIONS
 invalid_tabletype = 1
 missing_size = 2
 OTHERS = 4.
This returns the document still containing the mail merge fields which needs to be filled in:
 LOOP AT itf_table INTO itf_line.
 WHILE itf_line CS '«'.
 startpos = sy-fdpos + 1.
 IF itf_line CS '»'.
 tokenlength = sy-fdpos - startpos.
 ENDIF.
 token = itf_line+startpos(tokenlength).
 REPLACE '_' IN token WITH '-'.
 ASSIGN (token) TO .
 ENDIF.
 MODIFY itf_table FROM itf_line.
 ENDWHILE.
 ENDLOOP.
And finally I use FM 'CONVERT_ITF_TO_ASCII' to convert the SAPScript to text. I set the line lengths to 60, since that's a good length to format emails to.
 Convert document to 60 char wide ascii document for emailing
 CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_ITF_TO_ASCII'
 EXPORTING
 formatwidth = 60
 IMPORTING
 c_datatab = asciidoctab
 x_size = documentsize
 TABLES
 itf_lines = itf_table
 EXCEPTIONS
 invalid_tabletype = 1
 OTHERS = 2.
And then the text document gets passed to FM 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1' as the email body.

Displaying Text as HTML in the UIscrollbar component

Greetings.
I have a window on my Flash stage that has some scrollable copy in it. The problem is, I can't seem to have any formatting for the text ... if I select a word or two to make bold, it all turns bold. I gather I need to use the "Display Text as HTML" checkbox and then paste in some HTML formatted text but this doesn't seem to work. I searched this forum and found that others were designating "htmlText" in Actionscript instead of just "text" ... that didn't work either. I probably just did it wrong, or maybe it's becuase I'm using the UI component "UIscrollBar" for it's scrolling of the text.
Is there anything else I need to do to be able to format some text with strong tags and maybe some href links?
I have my properties inspector with the following check marks:
Display as HTML
Multiline
Dynamic Text
selectable
Thanks everyone.

How do I mix text and Html format in a java mail?

How do I mix text and Html format in a java mail? some part I want to keep the text format, the other part I want to use Html functions(like fond, color, etc)

You don't mix them. Pick one or the other.
However if you want to have a text version and an HTML version, so that mail readers that don't handle HTML can see regular text instead, then you could produce a "multipart/alternative" message. There's an explanation of how to do that in this article:

"texts on html file" are not updated "when edited on server"

Hi All,
QUESTION
What are the solutions, for having editable text/content on .html published files, so clients can edit through their server control panel
Scenario:
Client wants to update the "text" by editing the .html files on a server.
I published the website as static html so the text can be included in .html file, but edits made on server's control panel, doesnt appear in live website.
I also noticed that the texts located in edgeActions.js are editable through server, i am not very interested to define all my text content as the dynamic
code because then I must worry about empty .html files and SEO questions.

Here is what I ve found in regard to my own question...
For a Client, to be able to change the text on server (Ex: phone numbers in a contact page), they should access and modify the text in the edge.js or sometimes edgeaction.js page. Changing the text on .html page will create no result. I assume, this is because, the .html page is exported ONCE and only at the point of Publishing a project, to satisfy the SEO needs or whatever. Think of the text on .html page as a Sticker to fool the rest of the world, changing it will not change anything on webste and. Also if you change the text in .js, the change will not be relfected on .html file.
