  • specify the attribute that contains the path to HTML File, or
  • pick the HTML file in the HTML Filename parameter.

Note: HTML 5 tags are not yet supported.

Error Handling

ClosedError and Warning List Name

Features with at least one error will be output through the Failed port with a new list attribute specified in Error and Warning List Name added to the features. If the default _html_error is the list name, the elements of the list attribute contain the following:

Elements of List Attribute Description
_ html_error{}.type WARNING or ERROR
_ html_error{}.file the file where the warning or error or occurs
_ html_error{}.line the line where the warning or error occurs
_ html_error{}.col the column where the warning or error occurs
_ html_error{}.desc the details about the warning or error

Note: List attributes are not accessible from the output schema in Workbench unless they are first processed using a transformer that operates on them, such as ListExploder or ListConcatenator. Alternatively, AttributeExposer can be used.

ClosedIgnore Warnings

If set to Yes, errors are only reported in the list name during the conversion process.
