Is there a way I can, given a selected range of text, apply a specific tag, attribute name and attribute value by a script? I've got a situation where I'm using a fairly limited DTD that cannot be expanded, so I've got many items that must be tagged with <tag class = "xxx">. I've got at least 12 different classes to apply. Can ID CS help to automate this process and eliminate error from mistyped attribute names or values? (Map Styles to Tags won't work because there's already block structure in place, and some of these instances use the same character style for different purposes.)
