Smartform with text containing html tags

Question

I am reading from a table that contains html tags like
<br>
<menu>
<LI type="disc">This is a line which contains html tags
that goes over to 2nd line
<LI type="disc"> This is also another line which contains html
tags.
and each line is stored in a different row. The customer has agreed to use only 3 of the above html tags (
<br>, <menu> and <LI type="disc">
When the output is previewed in smartforms, the html tags needs to be formatted and not print in raw format as follows: 
<LI type="disc">This is a line which contains html tags
   that goes over to 2nd line
<LI type="disc"> This is also another line which contains html
   tags.
How can this be done ?

Answer 1

ok understood...
you can try this
Loop at i_html into wa_html.
tmp = strlen( wa_html-line).
do tmp times.
if wa_html-line+0(1) = <
l_start = 1.
__elseif wa_html-line+0(1) = >
l_start = 0.
concatenate l_char wa_html-line+0(1) into l_char.
endif.
if l_start = 1.
concatenate l_char wa_html-line+0(1) into l_char.
wa_html-line = wa_html-line+1(l_tmp - sy-index) OR use the keyword SHIFT LEFT...plz chk the syntax
elseif l_start = 0 and l_char = <LItype=disc>
concatenate <BULLET>  wa_html-line into  wa_html-line separated by space.
endif.
enddo.
modify i_html form wa_html.
endloop.
now u define two text element one with bullet and another without bullet. this is how u insert bullet:
goto to the texteditor of a text element in smartform. Its a small button on the left hand side of.
Then goto insert>characters>sap symbols.
for ur requirement u can use the symbol SYM_FILLED_CIRCLE.
Remember these icons or symbols whatever u will not be able to see in print preview....u have to take a print
and see
Now at the time of display check if the line contains the
tag <BULLET> ( if wa_html-line+0(8) = '<BULLET>')
if the line has the tag then display ur text in the text element with bullet
otherwise
display it in the non bullet text element..
remeber to remove the tag before dispalying
hope this solves ur prob...
