We are taking some input from users as plain text. I'd like to use a formula rich text to style it up a bit.
However, concatenating plain text into HTML requires replacing angle brackets < and > with
< and > and ampersands & with &.I can do this myself with multiple calls to SearchAndReplace. However I was wondering if Quickbase would consider providing a function called "Escape" that would handle all of this in one go.
It would be especially great if links and email addresses could automatically become
<a> tags, the way they do when you look at a plain text field normally. When concatenating these into the rich text, they don't automatically parse as links.Has anybody else dealt with this?
Thanks.
