Handle HTML tags from XML in mapforce

I'm having trouble with html-table in xml with mapforce. It looks like mapforce removes HTML tags and that makes the output unstructured.

I posted this on Altova forum also where you can get the files: https://www.altova.com/forum/default.aspx?g=posts&t=1100001859

Tried various fuctions (tokenize etc.) to identify the tags, but it's seems like they're allready gone.

Anybody knows how to handle HTMLcode from XML with mapforce correctly? Input files are from external source, so we can't change them unfortunately

I gave a look to your output XSD: TEST_html_out-2.xsd, and I found that your output element is:

<xs:element name="MakroMikroBeskrivelse" type="xs:anyURI"/>

The output type is described there: http://books.xmlschemata.org/relaxng/ch19-77009.html and thre http://www.datypic.com/sc/xsd/t-xsd_anyURI.html and it is stripping the whitespace. This explain why your output does not look well formatted.

I would recommend you to use another data-type, xsd:string for example. http://www.datypic.com/sc/xsd/t-xsd_string.html

You have to note that if you are using xs:string in your output schema, your HTML tag will be escaped.

You have a bit more details there: Invalid Characters in XML

Let us know if it helps your to solve your issue!
