Hello,

Does anybody know how to put automatically the Title of the movie into the Notes window (in HTML) ?
Thanks.

Not that I am aware of.

But what you can do:

View -> HTML Windows -> Edit -> New -> "Advanced Notes"

and then you put between <body> and </body>

Quote:
<DP NAME="TITLE">
<br/>
<DP NAME="NOTES">

Thanks DJ Doena,

I did it, but after I leave "Edit HTML Sections" window, I don't see anything in the Notes window.

In fact, I am trying to put an hyperlink into the Notes window which lead to a search page of a web site (Allociné).

I beg your pardon because I have already asked this question in an another Invelos forum, but probably I will not get an answer because it's inside an old topic.

I made this code inside the Notes window :
<a var title ="Out of Africa"
onclick="this.href='http://www.allocine.fr/recherche/?q='+title"
target="_blank">Allociné</a>

I would like to replace "Out of Africa" by a variable (Title of the movie). So, with the tip you gave me few days ago, I will copy the Note of one DVD and paste it in others.

I'm sorry, what I should have mentioned is that you need to activate this new window via View -> HTML Window -> Avanced Notes.

For your purpose, I'd add this code to this individual HTML Window:

Quote:
<a href="http://www.allocine.fr/recherche/?q=<DP NAME="TITLE">" target="_blank">Search on Allociné for '<DP NAME="TITLE">'</a>

Thanks DJ Doena, but it doesn't work. It open allocine inside the Notes window (too little for that) and <DP NAME="TITLE"> isn't recognized.

Oh, sorry, I badly read your answer. But I don't see Advanced Notes (I have already created it).

You can name individual HTML windows whatever you want them to name. You can edit them in View -> HTML Windows -> Edit.

And you have to activate them under View -> HTML Window.

That's it, that works. All my problems came from the display. I am on Windows 7 with resolution 1920x1080 and  the default font size, in Windows, is 125%. So, I didn't see OK and Cancel buttons of the "Edit HTML Sections" window, nor the Advanced Notes in the menu (but only Edit). If I choose font size 100%, it's OK. I think that having installed my window, I can return to the size of 125 %.

Sorry jeabe, I just hadn't gotten around to answering your question when you posted it in the other topic (actually, I was trying to find a workaround that would do exactly what you were asking instead of using a new window. But as Karsten just pointed out, the new window was a much easier method.

(I just enjoy the torture of trying to solve the difficult problems with an even more difficult answer )

Sorry jeabe,

No, it’s me who ask you to excuse my impatience. I should have waited for a few days.

The solution of DJ Doena is not only simpler, but better because it doesn’t require that we copy the code every time we add a DVD.

I think that the problem of font should be indicated in the help, in default of being resolved. In fact, it is not a commonplace problem of display, because even if we can go out of the "Edit HTML Sections" window by the escape key, the new sections which we believe to create aren’t in reality never :

Windows font size 125%. I create a New section. I don't see it in the menu View/HTLM Windows (where I see only Edit).
I change Windows font size to 100%, still I do not see this New section in the menu.

Windows font size 100%. I create a New section. Everything is OK. I go back to Windows font size 125%, I still see the New section in the menu.

I think that my situation isn't scarce. I have a laptop 17", Windows 7 and resolution 1920x1080.
I must point out that the font size 125% is the default font size.
