[Htmlparser-user] FrameTag : no "setFrameLocation" method ?

[Elodie T. <et...@in...>]

Hi,

I noticed that some of the Tag classes have a method that permit to modify (or I guess they do) the "source" attribute (like href or src). These methods are, for example : setBaseURL,  setImageURL, setLink...

It seems perfect to me, as I have to modify all relative path in a html... but I can't find method that set source location in a frame tag, nor in an input tag (when type=image).

What can I do ? Would it be too complex for me if I tried to add such a method in the HTMLFrameTag class ?

And for the InputTag class ?

Regards,
Elodie

I thought I had already replied to this - my question
to you is - why do you want to change the frame
location ?  If you can answer this convincingly, the
next release of the parser will contain this feature.

I already answered, too, when you asked me to give a scenario.
In my case, I work in a portal where you can import any kind of files.
The filesystem is so that the "logical paths" are different from the "physical paths" : for example, /my_html_files/index.html is in "real" /rep1024/fic1035.html.
So, when you want to visualize HTML files from this portal, the 'href' ans 'src' paths aren't valid anymore, so I must take them all, "translate" them and replace them.
And when you use a frame, the src attribute can be to a relative path, so I need to modify it too.

I hope I answered convincingly enough ! ;o)

Sorry, I seem to have missed your earlier mail..

Yes of course- thats why you are allowed to modify urls and image locations.
But of what benefit would it be to remap the form url - bcos you'd need a
real server serving your requests - unless you have local server to map to..
I am curious about your scenario for form location modification.

Yes, I agree this should be allowed.

But... I just said I want to modify the <frame> location, not the form ! I just think there can be a problem when you have an <input> with type=image, because this can be treated as an <img> tag (with a relative path)...

Sorry bout that.. for some strange reason, I read that as form tag! We'll
ship with this change very soon.
