scott100 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Hi guys, new to xml and needing some help.I have a data island and importing the data into my html file - ok there.One of the fields in the data island is for an email address, so what i want is in the html page that the email address is clickable and will open up a new messageHere is what i have: <table border="1" datasrc="#lets"><tr><td><a href='datafld="EMAIL"'><span datafld="EMAIL"></span></a></td></tr></table> so how do i get the data from EMAIL to be added to the href? Sorry if this is realy simple but we've all got to start somewhere eh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspnetguy Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I am not very experienced in XML but I believe that data islands are an IE only feature. I may be wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be wrong though.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Oh right...That's not a problem though as everyone in my organisation is on IE.Well maybe i don't wan't to get into bad habbits, do you know what i should use instead of data islands?

boen_robot Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Normally I would say "XSLT", but knowing you enough scott, I think you may do better with JavaScript or XML DOM to be more precise . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
