Work Notes not formatting HTML

[gaidem]

We use the work notes field for communication. When entering links it does not format it in HTML. I know you can add HTML tags, but has anyone else had this issue?

Need to retain the journal type field and have automatic HTML formatting.

You need to make sure you have

<pre __default_attr="plain" __jive_macro_name="code" class="jive_text_macro jive_macro_code"><p></p></pre>

tags around anything that you want html formatted. Also, there was a recent issue where this might not happen even if you were using code tags. If you are seeing this problem then you might need to create a True/False system property named 'glide.ui.escape_text' and set the value to 'True'.

Hi Mark,

Do you know if this is still an issue?

Also, did you manage to come up with a macro for to intercept and edit the tags before insert?

Thanks,

It is an issue on the June 2011 release (and maybe a preview or 2 leading up to it). I briefly looked at inserting code tags before insert, but couldn't see a quick and easy solution at the time.

The issue is with our instance and having non technical users who simply want to put a link in the work note field and have it display as a link.
