answering my own question... i see in the ndoc task that it writes out a temp ndoc project file that's full of <property name= value= /> nodes. since this file is created using the .net xml classes, any <> char would be rendered in &; notation, regardless of the original contents. since ndoc then works off the temp project file, there's no way in ndoc to have embedded html (me thinks).
thanks anyway. /jean > -----Original Message----- > From: Jean Rajotte [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2003 16:37 > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: ndoc and html in a property's value > > > allo yall, > > question: how can i set html into a property's value? > > i'd like to do the functional equivalent of the following illegal xml: > > <property name="App.Copyright" value="plain and > <b>bold</b> text" /> > > then i use this in a ndoc task as follows: > > <ndoc verbose="true" > > <documenters> > <documenter name="MSDN"> > <property name="CopyrightText" value="${App.Copyright}" /> > > i've tried the following 2 approaches: > > <property name="App.Copyright" value="plain and > <b>bold</b> text" /> and > <script language="C#"> > <code> <![CDATA[ > public static void ScriptMain(Project project) { > project.Properties[ "App.Copyright" ] = "plain > and <b>bold</b> text"; > } > ]]> </code> > </script> > > i always end up w/ the following output (in the html from > ndoc's work): > > plain and <b>bold</b> text > > i don't want this -- i want html! i don't know whether ndoc > or nant is munging the text into &-; notation... > > any idea and/or alternatives? > > thanks, > jean > > ____________ > Jean Rajotte > +1 416-574-1767 > ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: VM Ware With VMware you can run multiple operating systems on a single machine.
