Entering <<BO.Attribute>> in HTML cell label results in <>:

Post by JonP »

Happy new year everyone. I guess I'm ringing in 2018 with a bug report. :wink:

If you create a form section HTML cell and you try to "<<...>>" in the label, all you get is "<>:".

My lazy workaround is to hide the label and do this in the HTML:

Code: Select all

<b><<BO.LabelAttribute>>:</b><p><p>
<<BO.ValueAttribute>>
The spacing between the label and value isn't quite right though (but better than if you just use one <p>).

I managed to overcome my laziness [somewhat] and I was able to improve the workaround via Inspect.

AIM uses HTML's label tag, which I didn't know about. I don't think I can use the label tag's "for" attribute since that would be self-referential (I'm too lazy to find out), but it seems to work anyway:

Code: Select all

<label class="aw-label-top"><<BO.LabelAttribute>>:</label>
<<BO.ValueAttribute>>
