    Hello,

    I'm trying to configure several cfg files for use with HTML Tidy inside UltraEdit; currently, you have two possible ways to configure the tidy options, one is selecting the options you want from an "Ultraedit HTML Tidy options" window, the other is specifying a .cfg file with all the possible options for Tidy, my problem is that I specify a .cfg file, but ultraedit keep using the options specified in the options window (which are in the uedit32.ini file); if I delete that options from the ini file, Ultraedit regenerates them again.

    Does anybody have the same problem?

    Thanks in advance,

      At configuration txt file -- what is it for? I have described the 2 existing HTML Tidy support methods currently existing in UltraEdit.

      I have written there that the Run HTML Tidy dialog now supports specifying a config file and if no config file is specified the options are used which can be configured inside UE.

      I have tested now this second Tidy support with v12.00+3 of UE and it really works as I have described.

      If I execute Run HTML Tidy without a config file specified, the options are used.

      If I specify my Htmltidy.cfg with correct path, HTML Tidy is executed with the options specified in this file.

      Next I made a copy of my Htmltidy.cfg and set quiet to no and wrap to 75 and executed Run HTML Tidy with this second Tidy config file and really got a different HTML and Tidy output.

      Last I made the path to the config file invalid in the dialog and pressed again the button Parse. With this invalid file specification I got the error message "A severe error (-1) occured." from UltraEdit.

      Conclusion: I have no problem with the use of different config files for HTML Tidy.

        Hello Mofi

        I've checked my cfg file and the problem was that I had spaces before the options, something like this:

        Code: Select all

                               bare: no
                      clean: no
                 css-prefix:
       decorate-inferred-ul: no
                    doctype: auto
           drop-empty-paras: yes
             drop-font-tags: no
drop-proprietary-attributes: no
         enclose-block-text: no
        I've modified it and now it's working properly

        Thanks for your help!
