[Bodington-developers] Log Book html rendering in section and question

[Jim A. <J....@le...>]

Hello,

Happy New Year to All!

I'm trying to fathom out what is up with the html rendering in log book
sections and questions. Having investigated our database it seems as if
the introduction_type and question_type fields of log_book_sections and
log_book_questions aren't being set and remain null. This means that the
content gets rendered by the plain text renderer as below

protected SectionRenderer getSectionRenderer( LogBookSection section )
            throws BuildingServerException
        {
            String type =3D section.getIntroductionType();
            if (null =3D=3D type)
                return new PlainSectionRenderer(section);
            type =3D type.toLowerCase();
            if (("xhtml".equals(type)) || ("html".equals(type)))
                return new HtmlSectionRenderer(section);
            // If we get here, we have no idea, so default it.
            return new PlainSectionRenderer(section);
        }

Looking at when a new section is created seems to suggest that
setIntroductionType is never called.


		// set initial properties
		section.setTitle( "Untitled Section" );
		section.setIntroduction( "Introductory text goes here."
);
		section.setOrdinal( ordinal );



It may be that we had some custom code here, but would like to know how
its meant to work before looking through our old files.

Any help greatly appreciated.


Cheers,


Jim
