readln for XML file

[source1ben]

I am reading in a XML file with the readln function. The $ret is converting some characters in this process.

For example:

< is changed to <
> is changed to >
" is changed to "

I seem to be having a problem getting the sandr to replace these characters with the <, >, and " characters.

Perhaps I am out in left field ??? Is the timport a better approach to processing a xml file as an input. If so, do you have any example code on how to do this ?

thx.

There is no conversion on input. The conversion is on output to an html page. By default variables will be automatically HTML escaped when printed. You have several options to get them out raw.
<fmt "%s" $var>
<send $var>
generate a ".txt" page instead of ".html".
