Hello all,
I am writing reusable modules in Structured FrameMaker. Part of the reusability comes from using a variable instead of a hard-coded machine name, so that the machine name does not require variants of the same text. Using the standard FrameMaker variables is out of the question, so I have introduced a BookVar element that takes an attribute to determine which value is selected. All possible attribute values for the BookVar element lead to an attribute of the Book, which is the highest element in my publishable document.
The problem is, that the name of the machine may contain a non-breaking space. I can enter the non-breaking space as the attribute value in the Book element, but when the BookVar that receives its value from the Book attribute is resolved the name does not contain the non-breaking space anymore. Is there a special character code that I can include in the value of an attribute ?
Thanks in advance for your solutions
