Is there a way to enumerate format of a text field?

[tomcam]

I'd like to export the formatted contents of a text field into different text formats. For example, I'd like to be able to export bold text in different formats depending on the setting, so it might look like either of these:

Code: Select all

<strong>bold text</strong>

[b]bold text[/b]

Or it might be exported as plain text.

Is there some way I can programmatically determine the formatting (including paragraph formatting, etc.) of the contents of a text field?

look at styledText in the dictionary

Hi.

Also look at the "htmlText". This may be closer to what you asked for, or at least more directly accessible.
