Text Field in HTML Format [message #76995]

I am having trouble using text fields in HTML format.
When I include a parameter, it add a whitespace before and after the
parameter :
"someText<VALUE-OF>params["paramsName"]</VALUE-OF>, someText" --> "someTexte
[param] , someText"

I also have troubles with cumulative text formating tags. It doesn't close
properly the tags :
"someText<VALUE-OF>params["paramsName"]</VALUE-OF >, someText" .
In this case, the bold tag is never closed.

I get this trace :
line 3 column 122 - Warning: inserting implicit 
line 3 column 122 - Warning: inserting implicit 
line 3 column 145 - Warning: replacing unexpected </value-of> by 
line 3 column 156 - Warning: replacing unexpected by 
line 3 column 160 - Warning: missing </value-of> before 
line 3 column 160 - Warning: replacing unexpected by 
line 5 column 62 - Warning: missing 

Thanks in advance,
Nicolas

Nicolas,
What version of BIRT are you using. I built a report and it did not seem to
add the whitespace or the bolding issue.
one thing you may try is in the Edit Text Item is do something like:

<VALUE-OF>var test=params["parmtest"];
test = test.replace(/^\s*|\s*$/g,"");</VALUE-OF>

Can you post the full contents of your Text Item?

I'm using the following configuration :
Birt 1_0_1
Eclipse 3.0.1

Using a regular expression doesn't work, my parameter doesn't contain any
whitespace.

There is a difference between generating html or PDF reports:
- HTML : the whitespace is not add when there is no text formating tags
(bolding ...).
- HTML : the whitespace is add when I use text formating tags.
- PDF : the whitespace is always add.

My Text Item full content :

<VALUE-OF>params["civilite"]</VALUE-OF> <VALUE-OF>params["nom"]</VALUE-OF> 
 
Lors de notre récent <VALUE-OF>params["entretien"]</VALUE-OF>, vous avez
souhaité souscrire à la garantie
<VALUE-OF>params["produit"]</VALUE-OF>, et je vous en
remercie.

Nicolas,
I see what you mean. There is a similar bug reported, but this one may be
different.
The number is 104173.
If you can please add your comments to the case.
I dont think this will help your problem, but you can add two strings in on
VALUE-OF line.
Like
<VALUE-OF>params["civilite"]</VALUE-OF> <VALUE-OF>params["nom"]</VALUE-OF>
Could be
<VALUE-OF>params["civilite"] + params["nom"]</VALUE-OF>
