Conversion of supported CDML action tags
Here’s how the CDML Converter handles the conversion of the following supported CDML action tags:
Conversion of obsolete CDML variable tags
Here’s how the CDML Converter handles the conversion of the following obsolete CDML variable tags:
This CDML action tag Is converted to this XSLT-CWP query parameter with no change in syntax
-delete -delete
-dup -dup
-edit -edit
-find -find
-findall -findall
-findany -findany
-new -new
-view -view
-dbnames -dbnames
-layoutnames -layoutnames
-scriptnames -scriptnames
This obsolete
CDML variable tag Is replaced with this comment after the original variable tag location
-errorfmtfield <!-- CDML Converter ERROR: '-errorfmtfield' not supported by XSLT-CWP -->
-fmtfield <!-- CDML Converter ERROR: '-fmtfield' not supported by XSLT-CWP -->
-format A comment is not inserted. Instead, the URL to the format file is converted to the new URL
syntax to refer to the converted XSLT stylesheet name
-mailbcc <!-- CDML Converter ERROR: '-mailbcc' not supported by XSLT-CWP, use
fmxslt:send_email() function -->
-mailcc <!-- CDML Converter ERROR: '-mailcc' not supported by XSLT-CWP, use
fmxslt:send_email() function -->
-mailfmtfield <!-- CDML Converter ERROR: '-mailfmtfield' not supported by XSLT-CWP, use
fmxslt:send_email() function -->
-mailformat <!-- CDML Converter ERROR: '-mailformat' not supported by XSLT-CWP, use
fmxslt:send_email() function -->
-mailfrom <!-- CDML Converter ERROR: '-mailfrom' not supported by XSLT-CWP, use
fmxslt:send_email() function
-->
-mailhost <!-- CDML Converter ERROR: '-mailhost' not supported by XSLT-CWP, use
fmxslt:send_email() function -->
-mailsub <!-- CDML Converter ERROR: '-mailsub' not supported by XSLT-CWP, use
fmxslt:send_email() function -->
