Trying to run the simplest html code wont work
BlitzMax Forums/MaxGUI Module/Trying to run the simplest html code wont work|

| Im using HtmlViewRun and ive loaded this simple code <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <h1>My First Heading</h1> <p>My first paragraph.</p> </body> </html> still i get error "an error has accrued in the script on this page" why.. | 
| 
 | ||
| Because it is shoddy code.  Go here: http://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_input Paste in the code you pasted in above an you will see the errors and have them explained to you. | 
| 
 | ||
| Slightly ironic that the sourcecode above is copied/pasted from the w3schools website. http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_intro | 
| 
 | ||
| Here's the code I use as a html template. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>New Document</title> <meta name="keywords" content=""> <meta name="description" content=""> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8"> <meta name="robots" content="index,follow"> <style type="text/css"> </style> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> </head> <body> </body> </html> |

| I dont get it. here is my test code. 
Import MaxGui.Drivers
Strict 
Local window:TGadget
Local htmlview:TGadget
window=CreateWindow("My Window",30,20,600,440,,15|WINDOW_ACCEPTFILES)
htmlview=CreateHTMLView(0,0,ClientWidth(window),ClientHeight(window),window)
SetGadgetLayout htmlview,1,1,1,1 
HtmlViewRun(htmlview, LoadText("C:\test.txt"))
While WaitEvent()
	Select EventID()
		Case EVENT_WINDOWCLOSE
			End
	End Select
Wend
the file is loading fine and the html code is as simple as it can get! whats going on here. |

| HtmlViewRun expects a script not a document. Use HtmlViewGo to get the gadget to load a document from a file. |
