Bug 116744 Dynamic text content type has no effect
Reported: 2005-11-16 18:01:30 | Status: resolved fixed

I have a db field with three types of content: 1) HTML text within <html> ...</html> tag. 2) HTML fragments not within <html> tag 3) Text with RTF tags I use a dynamic text element to display the contents of this field. The report displays the same results whether I set the dynamic text element's Content Type property to Auto, Plain, or HTML. Expected results: For Plain, I expect the literal content (tags and all) to be displayed. For Auto, I expect content 1, 2 and 3 to appear properly without HTML or RTF tags. For HTML, I expect content 1 and 2 to appear properly without HTML tags, and content 3 to appear literally with RTF tags. See attached report.
