open file specialFolderPath("desktop") & "/myData.html" for write -- creates a file for Revolution to write to
put "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN' 'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd'>" & CR into myVar
put myGoo into field "Field1"
write myVar to file specialFolderPath("desktop") & "/myData.html" -- writes the text placed in the local variable into the open text file we created
close file specialFolderPath("desktop") & "/myData.html" -- closes/saves the text file containing the text form the field/local variable into a text file on the desktop
end mouseUp
Have you some help for me? Thx for all.

from:
Code: Select all
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
to
Code: Select all
<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=utf-8'/>

Hi Andy,
Glad it helps.
Dreamweaver created that page with " (quote/double quote) not ' (apostrophe/single quote). Why do you use the single quote?

Single quote internally works Well when creating an http page with code.
example: string "this is a 'test'" can't do this output: "this is a "test"" or
"This is a" & "test"
The reason is my Gambas code at the top of the page. I'm porting my software to livecode.
