Hi, I have solved the problem by using a foreach task. So everythings fine now. My next task is to rename all the files that I have made tidy. I have to rename all the files from .html to .ehtml so that it can be added to forrest tool for building the project site.
I came across a previous message where the user suggested to make use of <ant:fileScanner var="plugins"> ..... ..... </ant:fileScanner> But I think there should be some easier method. I suppose that the tidy tool itself must be having some option to change the extension of files from .html to .xml or .xhtml etc. So I am still searching for some Idea. Someone who has some idea-please suggest me some solution. bye, with regards, Deepak. --- Antoine Levy-Lambert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello, > look at ant-contrib > http://ant-contrib.sourceforge.net/ > in ant-contrib, there are for and foreach tasks that > you can use to iterate > over a set of files. > Cheers, > Antoine > > Hi, > > > > I have to use the tidy.jar to make the html files > in a > > directory - as well formed. > > > > I tried it with ant java task. > > > > <java classname="org.w3c.tidy.Tidy" > output="f:\test\" > > fork="true"> > > <arg line="-f C:\june18\errs.txt -asxhtml -numeric > > f:\test\ >> f:\test\output1.txt"/> > > </java> > > > > It works fine. > > > > But how can I make this to work for an entire set > of > > directory.
