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 remote snippet into a variable and retrieves
an element from the snippet using query().var mysnippet = loadhtml
('http://www.somewebsite.com/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.locationString 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: file:///c:/somefolder/somecontent.html.When using the http/https protocol, remember that
only absolute paths are supported inside remote snippets (see
Skin/Formats/CrossReferencePrintFormat("Remote snippets" on page1)).To quickly get the
location of an HTML snippet in the template resources, right-click the snippet in the Resources pane
and select Copy Resource Location.The path to a remote HTML snippet can be copied from the
snippet's properties: right-click the snippet in the Resources pane and select
Properties.selectorString. The supplied selector should conform to CSS selector syntaxand allows
you to retrieve only the content of matching elements.ExamplesThis script loads a specific element
from a snippet and uses that to replace the results (the HTML element or set of HTML elements
matched by the selector of the script; see Skin/Formats/CrossReferencePrintFormat("results" on
page1)).var mysnippet = loadhtml('snippets/snippet-selectors.html','#item3'); results.replaceWith
(mysnippet);This script loads the children of the selected element.var snippet = loadhtml
('file:///C:/Users/PParker/Documents/Example.html','foobar').children(); results.replaceWith
(snippet);The next script loads a remote snippet (see Skin/Formats/CrossReferencePrintFormat
("Remote snippets" on page1)), looks for an H1 heading and uses that text.var post = loadhtml
('snippets/post.rhtml');var h1 = query('h1', post).text();results.text(h1);Another example is given in
the following how-to: Using a selector to load part of a snippet." on page1)); for JSON, use
loadjson() ("loadjson()" on page785).
Tip
External content is not loaded while editing a script. To test a script that loads external content, you
can do a preflight; see "Doing a Preflight" on page388.
