Web Pages in a Field

Hi Thomas,

this indicates that you are just:

get URL("http://www.server.com/folder/page.html")
put it into fld xyz

Or something like this...
But that will put the html sourcecode of the URL (garbage :-) into  
your field!

You should do this:

set the htmltext of fld xyz to URL("http://www.server.com/folder/ 
page.html")

> Any sample stacks that do display actual pages in a field.

No sample stack needed, just the line above :-)
Please try it out, but rember that "the htmltext" in Rev does only  
support a
small "subset" of HTML.
