However, you can REBOLize the process, as illustrated in the following: You also need to account for Named Entities as well: Named_Entities: [ "quot" "amp" "lt" "gt" "nbsp" "iexcl" "cent" "pound" "curren" "yen" "brvbar" "sect" "uml" "copy" "ordf" "laquo" "not" "shy" "reg" "macr" "deg" "plusmn" "sup2" "sup3" "acute" "micro" "para" "middot" "cedil" "sup1" "ordm" "raquo" "frac14" "frac12" "frac34" "iquest" "times" "Oslash" ] Replace_Named_Entities: func [Script [string!]] [ Map Named_Entities func [Entity] [ replace/all Script join "&" Entity join "&" [Amp_Entity_Replacement Entity] ] Script ] ; A temporary replacement for "amp;" to avoid infinite recursion. ; Don't simplify! Why? The constant will be replaced when this program is converted to HTML! Amp_Entity_Replacement: join "a" "R2HTMLmR2HTMLpR2HTML;" ; "amp;" with "R2HTML" between each letter. Replace_Entities: func [Script [string!]] [ replace/all Script "&#" join "&" [Amp_Entity_Replacement "#"] Script: Replace_Named_Entities Script replace/all Script "<" "<" replace/all Script ">" ">" replace/all Script Amp_Entity_Replacement "amp;" Script ] Andrew Martin Who did this, way, way back...
