Custom web publishing using CDML 8-11
Using an intratag parameter
You can add a parameter to certain replacement tags that is based on
the contents of fields and other items.
Any first parameter that is allowed with the [FMP-If] tag on the left
side of an operator, such as CanDelete, ClientPassword or
ValueListItem, can be used as a third parameter on the right side of an
operator with these replacement tags, as long as they’re within curly
brackets { }. (See the [FMP-If] tag syntax in the CDML Reference for
a description of the first parameters for the [FMP-If] tag.)
Note Some restrictions apply to this new intratag parameter. See the
CDML Reference for a description of each replacement tag and how
the intratag parameter may be used.
Modified replacement tags that allow for the intratag parameter
include:
[FMP-If: {intratag}]
[FMP-Cookie: {intratag}]
[FMP-InlineAction: {intratag}]
[FMP-Log: {intratag}]
[FMP-SetCookie: {intratag}]
[FMP-ContentMimeType: {intratag}]
[FMP-CurrentToken: {intratag}]
[FMP-LinkRecID: {intratag}]
[FMP-Field: {intratag}]
[FMP-Option: {intratag}]
[FMP-Repeating: {intratag}]
[FMP-ValueList: {intratag}]
About the CDML Reference database
The CDML Reference database is divided into two parts:
1 CDML Tag Index — an index for all of the CDML tags with topics
that describe what each tag does and how it appears in syntax
1 Custom Web Publishing — general guidelines for custom web
publishing using CDML
[FMP-If:.and.]
[FMP-If:.or.]
[FMP-If:.xor.]
(new parameters)
Use these parameters (conditional operators) with
the [FMP-If] tag to specify multiple replacement
conditions.
If desired, use this modified [FMP-If] tag along
with the new [FMP-ElseIf] replacement tag.
[FMP-Field: FieldName,
Format] and [FMP-
RepeatingItem: FieldName,
Format]
(new encoding parameter)
Use the Format parameter to generate a higher
resolution HTML for field data. Numbers, dates,
times, and container size are formatted according
to the layout’s format in the database. If no size is
specified in the layout for container fields, then
the size is based on the size of the objects
(pictures or QuickTime movies) within the fields.
The Format parameter should not be used with
fields inside TEXT INPUT or TEXT AREA
elements in an HTML form.
The Format parameter supports Bold, Italic,
Underline, Strikethrough, Superscript, Subscript,
Uppercase, and Lowercase styles in most
browsers.
FileMaker Pro font sizes map to these HTML font
sizes:
8 points or less = -3
9 points = -2
10 points = -1
11 - 13 points = 0 (SIZE is not used)
14 - 17 points = +1
18 - 23 points = +2
24 points or greater = +3
