Hi<br>
<br>
My magazine uses a php sql system that I built for importing stories into what used to be Indesign, but is now Scribus ; -)<br>
<br>
Indesign was able to import xml files and apply styles to matching tags.<br>
I am sure Scribus can do this with some python help AND one won't even have to go via an xml file and instead connect directly to the db.<br>
<br>
I just need some help with this script.<br>
<br>
1. I need to be able to fetch a record's field (perhaps with a provided id for now).<br>
2. Import the content (text) into a frame (probably the selected frame)<br>
3. apply styles to matching tags ie. "<textem>this is italics</textem>"<br>
4. Delete the tags<br>
<br>
I'm sure this is doable and I will try to do so but I think I specifically need help with 3 and 4.<br>
<br>
Any ideas?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br></blockquote></div><br>You may:<br><ol><li>parse the text with some Python XML parser</li><li>for each fragment in text:</li><ol><li>insert text fragment</li><li>select the fragment</li><li>format the fragment<br>
