HTML in reports/list views

[cdunn]

We have several fields in which have enabled HTML in order to give our end users a "pretty" view of data on a homepage. It works great on that page but when you look at the data in reports or list views the HTML tags display making the data difficult to read. Is there a way to either handle the HTML in list view/report view so that the tags are either excluded or that it is displayed with the correct bolding/font etc?

We have tried pdf which does successfully handle the HTML, however, we have too many necessary columns too display legibly in that format.

I don't know if what you are asking is possible. If you don't get a response here I suggest creating a HI ticket and asking the support team if there are options to separate the HTML. And if not, then push this through as an enhancement request for future releases.

Here's an idea, it may not be optimal, but you could add another plain-text field on the table to contain the data stripped of any HTML formatting and display it in the lists and reports instead.

Maybe not optimal but that could work!

Clever.

so 3 years later.....Has anyone devised a technical solution for this? In our case maintaining the text in two columns is not practical in most cases ( although we do do it for one column, we have to many HTML columns for this to be viable for all)
