Webdav textdescription |
|
|
Anyone know what type of formatting I need to do in the textDescription
field in order to display a URL ...... I tried
<mail:textdescription>http://mydomain..com?Info=ED&Data=ED</mail:textdescription>
It gives me a 400 ERROR...... tested it with a simple text ("Hello Ed") and
it works, but cant get the full url string above to work....
Anyone know,
Thanks in advance

Try escaping that & to &
<mail:textdescription>http://mydomain..com?Info=ED&Data=ED</mail:textdescription>

Thanks Lee that did the trick. We were also wondering if there was anyway to
create a url hyperlink that is not as cryptic as
http://mydomain..com?Info=ED&Data=ED ..... we were hoping to have something
like: EDSINFO ....which would then redirect to the appropriate url.
Thanks again for all your help

I'm not sure what you mean by 'have something like EDSINFO', I'm afraid. Do
you mean that you want the text to include a hyperlink with a caption, to
make it look less cryptic to someone receiving it in a message?
<a href="http://mydomain.com?Info=ED&Data=ED">EDSINFO</a>
If so, you will have to escape all that to
<a
href="http://mydomain.com?Info=ED&Data=ED">EDSINFO</a>
I.e.
< = <
& = &
The textdescription (as entered in the WebDAV query) must be valid XML. You
can use a function like the VBScript HTMLEncode for this.
Lee.
