[KLUG Programming] HTMLDOC pdf dynamic scripting

[bill]

Hello Patrick,

If you can get htmldoc to work from the command line it should be possible to create a web
form and run it.

The pdf-o-matic page below has a link to the source code.  Did you try that?

Otherwise, post your code and the line number of the error, the "T_STRING" error is usually
something simple with an array.

kind regards,

bill
