Dear Admin

I have got the plugin working for one trigger item, however when I try to update the 2nd trigger with a path and save it clears the field back to blank?

I am running WordPress 2.8.5

This plugin has been tested, and works, in the latest release of WordPress – 2.9

sergiu: Newlines will not automatically get converted to HTML line breaks. You can use the PHP function nl2br to do this.

Just apply that function _after_ you run htmlspecialchars (or it will render the breaks useless. Try changing the line to this:

return nl2br(htmlspecialchars(file_get_contents($url)));

alexander: I do not currently have a demo of this plugin on the site.

Hi,

thanks for this plugin. It fits my needs, but I have a problem: I cannot make it to read correctly the “end of line” character. My text file has several lines, but the plugin is wrapping it all in one line.

Is there a way to fix this?

This plugin has been tested in the latest release of WordPress (2.7.1)

As for examples, it could be used for just about anything. Any situation where you want to grab data from an online data file, and display the output on your site.

This sounds great, I have just reviewed a similar project that is installed localy not server side, would be great to have one of your plugins to show what you can do for free. Would be nice to see some examples aswell, as previously stated by the previous poster. I used to use your SecureFormMailer for sometime and would like to give back some love. ATB George
