A simple attribute translator example
To better understand attribute translation, it's helpful to look at an example. The following
translator is Pound Conditional (Poco) markup, a syntax that's somewhat similar to ASP or PHP.
The first step in making this translator work properly is to create a
which prevents Dreamweaver from parsing the untranslated Poco statements.
The following example shows the
<tagspec tag_name="poco" start_string="<#" end_string="#>"
detect_in_attribute="true" icon="poco.gif" icon_width="17"
icon_height="15"></tagspec>
The poco.xml file that contains this tagspec is stored in the Configuration/ThirdPartyTags folder,
along with the icon for Poco tags.
