Missing HTML Hyperlinks when using AppendHTML...

Hello,

We're using Syncfusion Essentials 2010 Volume 2 and ASP.NET to create a Word document from a previously written HTML report.

We're having a problem with the rendering of our HTML when using the AppendHTML() method.

Our exact HTML we're passing to the method is:

"The Link will take you to a sample news page."

When the report is rendered it only prints the first word of the code "The" and leaves all of the rest off.

Below is the code for actually adding the HTML to the report.

// Pass the htmlToParse through the XHTML Compliance filter (TidyHTML)
string filteredHTML = TidyHTML(htmlToParse);

section.Body.IsValidXHTML(filteredHTML, XHTMLValidationType.None, out errorMessage);

if (errorMessage == "")
{
try
{
IWParagraphStyle HTMLStyle = document.AddParagraphStyle("HTMLStyle");
HTMLStyle.CharacterFormat.FontName = "Arial";
HTMLStyle.CharacterFormat.FontSize = 11;
HTMLStyle.ParagraphFormat.LeftIndent = indent;

paragraph.AppendHTML(filteredHTML);
paragraph.ApplyStyle(HTMLStyle.Name);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
AppendHTMLError(paragraph, errorStyle, defaultStyle, ex.Message);
paragraph.AppendBreak(BreakType.LineBreak);
IWTextRange text = paragraph.AppendText(UiUtils.StripHTML(filteredHTML));
text.ApplyCharacterFormat(defaultStyle);
retVal = false;
}
}

Any ideas as to what could be going wrong? I was thinking maybe the escape "\" character was causing the problem.

Thanks! Let me know if you need anything else.

The above "Link" is actually html code. The text is:

"Link"'>http://www.cnn.com">Link" Just replace the "_" character with a whitespace.

Thanks,
Daniel

Argh!

"Link<_/a>"'>http://www.cnn.com">Link<_/a>" Remove both "_" for whitespaces.

Thanks again,
Daniel
