loading html templates

Post by joejoe »

Hi,

I think I should load html templates with set command, however when I surround the html with the [text][/text] tags and use println to display the html, it omits the header.

For example, this code:

Code: Select all

(set 'template [text]<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<title>W3.CSS Template</title>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://www.w3schools.com/w3css/4/w3.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://www.w3schools.com/lib/w3-theme-black.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
<style>
html,body,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 {font-family: "Roboto", sans-serif;}
.w3-sidebar {
  z-index: 3;
  width: 250px;
  top: 43px;
  bottom: 0;
  height: inherit;
}
</style>
<body>

<!-- Navbar -->
<div class="w3-top">

function w3_open() {
  if (mySidebar.style.display === 'block') {
    mySidebar.style.display = 'none';
    overlayBg.style.display = "none";
  } else {
    mySidebar.style.display = 'block';
    overlayBg.style.display = "block";

function w3_close() {
  mySidebar.style.display = "none";
  overlayBg.style.display = "none";
}
</script>

</body>
</html>
[/text])
when called with (println template), the browser yields a page that is missing the html header info and begins the source html with this:

Code: Select all

<!-- Navbar -->
<div class="w3-top">
  <div class="w3-bar w3-theme w3-top w3-left-align w3-large">
    <a class="w3-bar-item w3-button w3-right w3-hide-large w3-hover-white w3-large w3-theme-l1" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="w3_open()"><i class="fa fa-bars"></i></a>
    <a href="#" class="w3-bar-item w3-button w3-theme-l1">Logo</a>
    <a href="#" class="w3-bar-item w3-button w3-hide-small w3-hover-white">About</a>
    <a href="#" class="w3-bar-item w3-button w3-hide-small w3-hover-white">Values</a>
    <a href="#" class="w3-bar-item w3-button w3-hide-small w3-hover-white">News</a>
    <a href="#" class="w3-bar-item w3-button w3-hide-small w3-hover-white">Contact</a>
    <a href="#" class="w3-bar-item w3-button w3-hide-small w3-hide-medium w3-hover-white">Clients</a>
    <a href="#" class="w3-bar-item w3-button w3-hide-small w3-hide-medium w3-hover-white">Partners</a>
  </div>
</div>

Is there something in the html header that is causing it not to display? I thought the [text][/text] formatters allowed anything to go inside of them?

Thanks very much!

If that printing happens from a CGI script for newlisp in -html operation, then it'd be explained as an API misunderstanding. newlisp in -html mode is quite forgiving about the CGI response, but it treats anything before the first empty line as the HTTP headers part, and that following the first empty line to be the HTTP payload part. That division holds regardless of whether the HTTP headers part is syntactically correct or not, where it silently discards anything non-header-ish. I remember it all as nicely documented but I can't bother looking it up right now.

Thus, if that's the reason, you would revise the template printing to add an initial newline

Code: Select all

(println "\n" template)
to serve the template text in full as HTTP payload.
