Hi,

I am using a program which reads emails from a selected folder of MS

Outlook(2003 SP3).

I have noticed the following,

- A mail has the <base href> tag defined in the header of the mail html

- The mail body has a relative tag with <a href
Once the MailItem.HTMLBody is read the relative tag(<a href>) is replaced

with the full url.

eg. The mail has the following html as the source

<html
<head
<base href="http://sample.com/aa/bb/cc"></base
</head
<body
<a href="dd">Text</a
</body
</html
The MailItem.HTMLBody returns the following

<html
<head
<base href="http://sample.com/aa/bb/cc"></base
</head
<body
<a href="http://sample.com/aa/bb/dd">Text</a
</body
</html
But when Redemption.SafeMailItem is used its html results as per original

mail above(1st html) without the full url for the href tags.

Is there a facility in Redemption to read the html with the full urls as per

MS Outlook mail item?

Redemption ver. in use, 4.5.0.812.

Please advice.

AFAIK Outlook loads the HTML blob into an HTMLDocument object, which parses

the HTML.

Redemption simply extracts the HTML body as-is.

Dmitry,

Thanks.

Could you give some hints on how to use the HTMLDocument object so that it

is possible to generate the full urls.

You'd think that would be easy... Essentially you need to create an instance

of the HTMLDocument object, QI it for IMarkupServices, then call

IMarkupServices::parseString. That method fails a lot on real-world HTML, so

you'd then need to QI for IPersistStreamInit and then call

IPersistStreamInit::Load, which is asynchronous, so you'd need to wait until

HTMLDocument.readyState property becomes "complete" or "interactive".
