Table Of Contents
The following script loads a local HTML snippet (Resources panel) into a variable. The
replaceWith() command is used to replace the element(s) matched by the script's selector with
the contents of the snippet.
var mysnippet = loadhtml('snippets/snippet.html');
results.replaceWith(mysnippet);
Same result as the previous script, but a different notation:
results.replaceWith(loadhtml('snippets/snippet.html'));
The following script loads a snippet into a variable and finds/replaces text in the variable before
inserting the content into the page. The second find command also adds formatting to the
replacing text.
var mysnippet = loadhtml
('file:///C:/Users/PParker/Documents/Example.html');
mysnippet.find('@var1@').text('OL Connect 1');
mysnippet.find('@var2@').html('<i>OL Connect 2</i>').css('text-
decoration','underline');
results.replaceWith(mysnippet);
This last script loads a snippet into a variable and retrieves an element from the snippet using
query().
var mysnippet = loadhtml('snippets/text-root-wrapped.html');
var subject = query("#subject", mysnippet).text();
results.append("<p style='font-weight: bold;'>" + subject +
"</p>");
loadhtml(location, selector)
Retrieves specific content from the specified HTML file.
location
String containing a path that can be absolute or relative to the section/context.
Use snippets/<snippet-name> to retrieve the content from an HTML file residing in the
Snippets folder on the Resources panel.
In order to retrieve files from outside the template, the file protocol is supported as well as
the http/https protocols.
The complete syntax of a fully qualified URL with the "file" protocol is: file://<host>/<path>. If
the host is "localhost", it can be omitted, resulting in file:///<path>, for example:
