[Rlib-users] link attribute in literals element

[Shannon W. <we...@ro...>]

The current docs mention the 'link' attribute for the Literals (and 
Field) element, which should make the content a URL link. This doesn't 
appear to be working for Literals (it's ignored). I've only seen the 
link attribute in the Field element in the examples -- and it appears to 
work properly there.

I haven't dug into the code on this yet - is this an error in the docs, 
or am I doing something wrong? I'd volunteer to add it if it's on the 
TODO. Since it's working for the Field tag, I'd imagine it's not too 
hard to add (hopefully).

Thanks,
Shannon

Shannon,

It seems the documentation is not correct and the link feature on text
is not implemented.  

If you wanted to make it work you would have to hit:
rlib.h
parsexml.c
resolution.c
free.c
layout.c

Or just as me to do it.. (it's only a 5 minute job)

Hey Bob,

Ok, could you do it please? :) On a related note, currently the link 
attribute for Field puts the entire width of the field content into the 
<a href> -- including the spacers that fill out the width if the text 
isn't long enough. This ends up looking pretty bad in html. Ideally the 
<a href> would only wrap the text, and then the spaces would be tacked 
on after that. Any possibility of that fix getting squeezed in as well?

Thanks,
Shannon
