addline

[SeDneY]

I have a question.
Is there a method addline() in input ?
And is it possible to do this?

you can always add a cr/lf pair &then some more text to anything you want... it showing up properly may be another thing..

Enable multi-line in the Input box properties dialog.

A new line for use in strings is "\r\n".

there is no addline method
you need to get existing text and append new line by concatenating old part with new line

oldtext = gettext()
newtext =  oldtext.."\r\n".."this a new line"
settext(newtext)

[Imagine Programming]

My Object Action Plugin contains a method for adding lines,
install the plugin and tick it in the plugin dialog, create a multiline
input object on the page and the next code allows you to
add lines on each call.

On Show

hInput1 = Object.Create("Input1");
hInput1:SetAppendDelimiter("\r\n"); -- Default is an empty string.

On the event where you want to append text

hInput1:Append("The text you'd like to see in a new rule.");
hInput1:Append(""); -- Add a empty line.

But you wouldn't have to use my plugin just for that hehe :yes

function Addline(StringToAddTo, StringToAdd, Method)

    --Newline
    if Method == 0 then
        return StringToAddTo .. "\r\n" .. StringToAdd;
    --Inline
    elseif Method == 1 then
        return StringToAddTo .. " " .. StringToAdd;
    else
        return "An error has occured";
    end
    
end 

I have no idea what so ever whether or not this will work, not tested ... enjoy
