 Posted: Sat Aug 02, 2008 12:40 pm Post subject: Getting user input from a form |
 |
|
I am try to create a form that takes two pieces of user input and then uses this info to create a set of folders in various locations based on the users input.
I have created the code to do the actual writing of information but I cannot seem to get the form to accept the user input and then parse the info back to the undelying code.
I am very new to Kixforms but I have used Kixtart before. |

If it are textboxes then you can get the text from it if you user the .text attribute.
Let say that there are two textboxes and the user typed FOO in the first one and BAR in the second textbox.
Doing something like this will get you FOOBAR.
| Code: |
;get the text from the textboxes.
$text1 = $textbox1.text
$text2 = $textbox2.text
;put the content of the first textbox into a variable and add the contents of the second textbox to the same variable.
$text = $text1 + $text2
;show the results
?$text
|
The code above is a bit long but it's clear.
The code below does just the same but is a bit shorter.
| Code: |
?$textbox1.text $textbox2.text
