wwp@yahoogroups.com: Any FileMaker Gurus out there? Landis 2004-Sep-25 17:10:00
Are there any FileMaker Pro Gurus out there?

I've got two small problems dealing with the data coming in and I 
hope to solve this via a FMP script.  They are both search and 
replace.

I'm not blaming anyone, there's a lot of directions to follow and 
English is not everyone's first language.  But I still have to make 
things pretty identical.

One problem is that sometimes I'm getting web site links that do not 
specify target="new" in the tag.   What I'd like to do is search for 
<a href...> tags, verify that it has a target="new" or 
target="_blank" and if it doesn't to insert that attribute.

The other problem is that sometimes I'm getting just web addresses in 
the Special URL and Website URL - and they need to be specified as a 
link in HTML.  For example I'll get just

http://wwpano.org

instead of

target="new">http://wwpano.org</a>

Anyone know how to write a script like this in FileMaker Pro (6)?

Please reply to me off list (#removed#).
