Wrapping the attribute

[Guest]

Do we have any technique or method to wrap an attribute using conversion table in the FRAMEMAKER?

Please help me in resolving this issue

Srii,

What do you mean with »wrapping an attribute«? Please explain the situation in your source file as well as which structure you want to achieve.

My unstructured document is in table contaning three columns,

EX

Prtnbr	Fignbr	Itemnbr
1	120	4
2	56	1

And i want the above table to be Structured like below

First column to be wrapped in element and next two columns should be wrapped as attribute.

Srini,

This is not possible using the Conversion Table feature. Every Cell is turned into a cell, every paragraph is turned into an element.

You can achieve this using post-processing. I very much recommend FrameSLT, a plug-in from <http://www.weststreetconsulting.com/>, which allows a lot of modifications to structured documents, like wrapping, unwrapping, deleting, copying, etc. It has so-called »Node Wizard Scripts«, which helped me cleaning documents after the application of the conversion table in batch mode.

Srini,

As Michael was trying to say, there is no technique for converting between elements and attributes with a conversion table. To automate this, you will need to get a plugin and/or do some custom programming or scripting yourself.
