How do I set BI Publisher to read html tags from the database?

How do I set BI Publisher (Release 10.1.3.4) to read html tags from the database? For example if the text is quoted with a bold tag I want my output to display the text in bold. Is there a setting or something I can set?

I took a look at Tim Dexter's blog as suggested and the sample worked, but for the elements in the xml file not for the value coming from the database, however this is good to know as well!
I have data in the data base column which looks like this:
'MS Applied <B(bold tag)> Mathematics</B(bold tag)>University of Southern California'
I want the data to be rendered like this:
'MS Applied <B>Mathematics</B> University of Southern California'.
In Report Builder on the property sheet I would set Contains HTML Tags property to Yes and the report would render correctly.
In BI Publisher 10.1.3.4 I can not seem set it to read this I have change the configure properties of the report to Character set to HTML and Make HTML output accessible to True. I just can't figure out what I'm missing.
Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

  • I need my java program to read HTML tags from the browser...

    so, i've made this java GUI, which can run from my internet explorer toolbar...
    as of now, this program doesn't do anything, it just produces an interface with blank fields
    i want these fields to automatically add information about the current web page on the browser... basically, is there any way that my java program can automatically read the HTML source of the web page opened? i just need it to be able to capture the page's URL and title.
    i programmed it using NetBeans, and it runs from the .jre file outside of NetBeans. I got an icon for it to appear on my IE toolbar by editing my computer's registry. When I click on this icon, my GUI runs, but doesn't do anything. Can I get it to read (i.e. automatically output on one of the textfields on my GUI) the URL and title of the webpage that i'm currently on? I want this to work like Bookmarks/Favourites does, so that means i don't want to download every single webpage before reading from it.
    any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I think that if you wanted to do this, it would involve something like the following:
    Have your toolbar GUI listen on a local port
    Set IE to proxy to localhost at that port
    Tunnel/proxy all requests. This will allow you to intercept the page source and the original request. Between the request URL, the request payload, the HTTP headers of request and response and the response payload, that's everything the browser would 'see'. The downside of the above is that you cannot intercept SSL (HTTPS) requests. You might be able to use the Windows/IE API (native) to fetch page source, but this would definitely be an application and O/S specific solution.

  • Error while reading file entries from the database

    Hi there,
    We are running a instance of xmii 12 in a VM (VMware) and after somebody shutdown the host machine without shutting down the VM (great idea isn't it?) we keep getting this message when trying to access xMII:
    "Application cannot be started.
      Details:   com.sap.engine.services.deploy.container.ExceptionInfo: Error while reading file entries from the database."
    Any clue? Any suggestion on how we can recover from that?
    Thanks a whole lot,

    Well thanks for the hint. Actually, the DB was up but corrupted. I managed to solve the bug by re-deploying xMII (using the SDM tool) which kept all my data but redeployed both the config db of (x)mii and the class files.

  • Is it possible to read , send emails from the database in oracle8.

    My present project needs me to send emails from the database through procedures. There is an oracle package UTL_HTTP in oracle8 which could be used to read emails from database. So kindly tell how to go about sending an email from the database. Is this feature available in Oracle8i.
    Thank you.

    Okay , Here's my Javascript wgich is in an onload process.
    Javascript variable addr_str displays the correct result.
    My hidden field is called P101_CHECKVAL.
    <html>
    <title>CodeAve.com(JavaScript: Display All URL Variables)</title>
    <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
    <script language="JavaScript">
    <!--
    // Create variable is_input to see if there is a ? in the url
    var is_input = document.URL.indexOf('P101_CHECKVAL:');
    // Check the position of the ? in the url
    if (is_input != -1)
    // Create variable from ? in the url to the end of the string
    addr_str = document.URL.substring(is_input+1, document.URL.length);
    // Loop through the url and write out values found
    // or a line break to seperate values by the &
    for (count = 0; count < addr_str.length; count++)
    if (addr_str.charAt(count) == "&")
    // Write a line break for each & found
    {document.write ("<br>");}
    else
    // Write the part of the url
    {document.write (addr_str.charAt(count));}
    // If there is no ? in the url state no values found
    else
    {document.write("No values detected");}
    -->
    </script>
    </body>
    </html>
    Everytime I put the HTML_get code into the javascript, it basically tells me I have an error on the page. So what exactly do I put that sets P101_CHECKVAL equal to the value of addr_str?

  • How to remove html tags from the pdf file ?

    Hello,
    Using BI publisher we are generating a pdf file. In the table, we have data which contains html tags. for example " test1<br> 2.test2<br> 3.test3<br> ".
    In the pdf file we need to get the output like this
    test1
    test2
    test3
    But the output is as follows :"test1<br> 2.test<br> 3.test3<br> "
    Any idea, how these html tags can be removed from the pdf file and obtain the required result?
    Thanks in advance!!
    Archana

    Archana,
    Can you wrap your code in <code> tags (use square brackets rather than angled ones), as the forum software is interpretting the HTML tags, in other words we can't see what you mean ;)
    In any case, there are a few different options (guessing at what your problem is, without seeing the actual data), you could use htf.escape_sc or replace, regexp_replace etc to substitute the values before you output them to your PDF.
    Hope this helps,
    John.

  • How do I set up iTunes to read my music from my external hard drive after I have changed to a new computer with new operating software (previously WinXP now Win7)?

    Before I got my new computer (which was operating on Windows XP), I successfully moved my itunes library to my external hard drive and ran it off that so as not to take up space on my laptop.  I now have a new computer which runs off of Windows 7.  I've tried going to iTunes-->preferences-->advanced-->"itunes media folder location" and pointing it to my external hard drive but it still doesn't show my library.  What do I need to do to make my iTunes library on my new computer read my iTunes library off of my external hard drive?

    As Chris says... but if the media is on an external drive as above then you also need to make sure the external drive has the same drive letter on the system you are moving to or iTunes won't be able to find the files.
    You might also find this topic useful: Make a split library portable.

    Hi Liz,
    Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem.  Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File",  then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups  opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine.  I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked  "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1).  I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do. 
    The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu,  when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.  
    I am now a happy camper. 
    I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto,  that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"? 
    Good luck Liz,  if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

  • How do i set up my airport extreme to access from my work windows based PC

    How do I set up my airport extreme to access from my work windows based pc?

    To mount the AirPort Disk in Windows 7 or Vista:
    Open the Network browser by double-clicking Network on the Windows Desktop.
    The AirPort Extreme base station name should appear in the browswer.
    Double-click the name and you should get a login prompt.
    Now depending on how you set up disk access:
    In the Name field, either enter the user account name or for base station/disk access, leave this field blank.
    In the Password field, enter the base station, disk, or user account password.
    Select the volume(s) you want to mount, and then, click OK.

  • How do I set up my new Macbook Pro without using the annoying Voiceover?

    How do I set up my new MacBook Pro without using the annoying Voiceover?  I cannot get it to work right; it seems to get stuck and repeats the same thing over and over.  It is driving me nuts!  Is there a way to begin the setup process without using the Voiceover system?  I am a new convert from a PC and I thought a Mac was supposed to be "intuitive!" 
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Pamela

    There is no good reason to register your Mac anyway.
    You can opt out of the setup process and registration by pressing Command (Apple key) and the "Q" key.
    The registration process requires you to divulge a lot of unnecessary information.

  • Hi iv got a sky router downstairs and a time capsule up stairs how do i set it up so that it just extends the sky wifi and then the hard drive in the time capsule is accessible from all over the house thanks

    hi iv got a sky router downstairs and a time capsule up stairs how do i set it up so that it just extends the sky wifi and then the hard drive in the time capsule is accessible from all over the house thanks

    Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <--> ports on the back of the Sky router to the WAN (circle of dots icon) port on the back of the Time Capsule. This connection must be maintained at all times.
    Then, using the setup "wizard" on your iMac illustrated below, configure the Time Capsule to create a wireless network that uses the exact same wireless network name and password that the Sky router is using.
    You can get the setup wizard going in several different ways, but the simplest might be to click the WiFi icon at the top of the Mac's screen and then click on Time Capsule under the heading of New AirPort Base Station.
    The wizard will open up and analyze the network, then the suggest the correct setup. The example below shows an older AirPort Express that is about to be setup in the same way. You will see a Time Capsule icon on your screen when you run the setup wizard.

  • How do i set it to fit to screen to print the entire file?

    How do i set it to fit to screen to print the entire file?  I have a file that is smaller than 8.5x11 but it says it's larger and clipping will occur and when I print it, it does not fit the paper.  Ive even clicked the box that says Scale to Fit Paper Size and it's still giving me that message and cutting info off. 
    I also need to be able to size it by percentage so I can adjust it to fit into a pre made form Im working with.

    First, I am new to this forum and I was told by Adobe that I would get help from Adobe as well as other users here, so that's why I posted.  But nobody asked me for basic info about image dimensions and printing sizes.  I never claimed to be an expert, just a basic user of PS, which is why Im asking for help.  I've used this program for my basic needs which is probably 1/1000th of what PS is capable of, but it's what I've used and I've always had success doing what I needed to do with it. If you can help, I very much appreciate it but if you just want to slam me and say you don't believe what I say, then that's not really helpful. Since nobody else responded to this post with any offers for help, the info you seek is below.  If you have any thoughts on how to help, I greatly appreciate it.
    Im not sure how the image dimensions apply to my question at all but here they are: 3300x2550 with a 300 dpi resolution. 
    Im simply trying to get the program to allow me to fit the image to the paper Im printing and adjust it as necessary to make it fit a partially pre-printed form I need for work and in every PS version I've used that I can recall, it allowed that.  It certainly allowed it, using the same printers Im using now, in CS5.
    Also, you mentioned that the printer driver handles this but I can do this in every other program I have on this computer with the same printers, from Numbers (it's a Mac) to Preview to Mac Mail so why wouldn't it do the same thing in PS? That's what Im trying to find out here and with most software, I can pick up a phone or get on a one-on-one chat and get help, but apparently not with PS and since it's not a cheap program, I expected more.  I never needed to call for help before using this new version, so that's something I need to consider.
    Again, if you are able to help, I appreciate it. Thanks!
