File creation problems
Hi,
I'm pretty new at writing extensions so I'm quite certain my problem is a mistake on my part.
I've written a piece of code that takes a data file and formats it into a table and writes the table to a new file (the client doesn't want to use templates, that's why it's done this way).
The data file is formatted with the first line as the page title, the second line has the column names and the rest is the data. The data if formatted with ";"
The function doStuff calls the fixTag function.
Whenever I run this, the contents of the data file (opened with fh = dreamweaver.openDocument(theFile); in the fixTag function) receives the data I try to write to the new file (created with var newTableDoc = dreamweaver.createXHTMLDocument(); in the doStuff function).
What am I doing wrong here. I've tried using dreamweaver.releaseDocument to release the data file, but it doesn't help. I've tried creating the new file with dreamweaver.getNewDocumentDOM but can't figure out how to then save that without running into the same overwrite problem.
Any help, tips, and the like is greatly appreciated.
