Windows Server Forum / Exchange Server / Development / April 2007WEBDAV: how to get a Multiline body in webdav created appointment?
I am using webdav to create an appointment and post it to a clanedar. When I pass a regular string with carriage returns and linefeeds to the htmldescription field they do not display. If I try to pass an html formatted string in the htmldescription field, for example: "<mail:htmldescription><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC ""-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN""><HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY>Test<BR>Testing</BODY></HTML></mail:htmldescription>" I get a 400 bad request error. I have tried setting the httpmail:content-media-type and mailheader:content-type to "text/html" and this did not help; I still got the bad request error. Not sure if i need to set the mailheader:content-transfer-encoding or what. I have not found any references that addresses this issue. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to get the appointment body to display with line breaks? Thanks in advance, Tom Majarov Here are two requests I ran the first one that just uses a string in the htmldescription field works and posts an appointment, the second uses a html tagged string in the htmldescription field and fails with 400 bad request error: this works: "<?xml version="1.0"?> <g:propertyupdate xmlns:g="DAV:" xmlns:e="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/" xmlns:mapi="http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/" xmlns:mapit="http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/" xmlns:x="xml:" xmlns:cal="urn:schemas:calendar:" xmlns:dt="urn:uuid:c2f41010-65b3-11d1-a29f-00aa00c14882/" xmlns:header="urn:schemas:mailheader:" xmlns:mail="urn:schemas:httpmail:"> <g:set> <g:prop> <g:contentclass>urn:content-classes:appointment</g:contentclass> <e:outlookmessageclass>IPM.Appointment</e:outlookmessageclass> <mail:subject>Test Appointment Subject</mail:subject> <mail:htmldescription>test</mail:htmldescription> <cal:location>meetappt Location</cal:location> <cal:dtstart dt:dt="dateTime.tz">2005-06-02T10:00:00.000Z</cal:dtstart> <cal:dtend dt:dt="dateTime.tz">2005-06-02T10:30:00.000Z</cal:dtend> <cal:instancetype dt="int">0</cal:instancetype> <cal:busystatus>BUSY</cal:busystatus> <cal:meetingstatus>CONFIRMED</cal:meetingstatus> <cal:alldayevent dt:dt="boolean">0</cal:alldayevent> <cal:responserequested dt:dt="boolean">1</cal:responserequested> <header:to>tmajarov</header:to> <mapi:finvited dt:dt="boolean">1</mapi:finvited> </g:prop> </g:set> </g:propertyupdate>" This doesn't: "<?xml version="1.0"?> <g:propertyupdate xmlns:g="DAV:" xmlns:e="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/" xmlns:mapi="http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/" xmlns:mapit="http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/" xmlns:x="xml:" xmlns:cal="urn:schemas:calendar:" xmlns:dt="urn:uuid:c2f41010-65b3-11d1-a29f-00aa00c14882/" xmlns:header="urn:schemas:mailheader:" xmlns:mail="urn:schemas:httpmail:"> <g:set> <g:prop> <g:contentclass>urn:content-classes:appointment</g:contentclass> <e:outlookmessageclass>IPM.Appointment</e:outlookmessageclass> <mail:subject>Test Appointment Subject</mail:subject> <mail:htmldescription><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3HTML//EN"><HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY>Test<BR>Testing</BODY></HTML></mail:htmldescription> <cal:location>meetappt Location</cal:location> <cal:dtstart dt:dt="dateTime.tz">2005-06-02T10:00:00.000Z</cal:dtstart> <cal:dtend dt:dt="dateTime.tz">2005-06-02T10:30:00.000Z</cal:dtend> <cal:instancetype dt:dt="int">0</cal:instancetype> <cal:busystatus>BUSY</cal:busystatus> <cal:meetingstatus>CONFIRMED</cal:meetingstatus> <cal:alldayevent dt:dt="boolean">0</cal:alldayevent> <cal:responserequested dt:dt="boolean">1</cal:responserequested> <header:to>tmajarov</header:to> <mapi:finvited dt:dt="boolean">1</mapi:finvited> </g:prop> </g:set> </g:propertyupdate>" Thanks again hope this helps elucidate the issue, Tom Majarov Hello, you should either escape the tags within the htmldscription tag, or put the the entire HTML you want to upload in a CDATA section.

I tried: "<mail:htmldescription><![CDATA[" & body & "]]></mail:htmldescription>" the appointment posted but there was no text at all because I guess the CDATA call here caused the XML parser to skip it. Am I missing something in these implementations?
