RE: lingo-l is there an escape character in Lingo?
Sorry, there's no escape character, but it's not needed, as far as I know. If you're wanting to create quotes in a string via Lingo, you can use QUOTE as in myQUOTEnameQUOTEis Manny. If the quotes are in a string entered into a field by the user, you shouldn't need to escape them. Have you done tests with your database to test this?

RE: lingo-l is there an escape character in Lingo?
Sorry, there's no escape character, but it's not needed, as far as I

If you're wanting to create quotes in a string via Lingo, you can use
QUOTE
as in myQUOTEnameQUOTEis Manny. If the quotes are in a
string
entered into a field by the user, you shouldn't need to escape them.
Have you done tests with your database to test this?
Yep, I've tested it. In an SQL statement, strings have to be surrounded
by either single or double quotes. While single quotes are the standard,
the latter is often used. I've been a web database programmer for a
number of years and to get around this, an escape char is used when the
same quote/doublequote is found within the string. The SQL gets built as:
SQL=insert into myTable(NAME, SIZE) values('myName','mySize')
which will only be a problem when the value of myName and/or mySize
contain the same char used to surround the string in the query, in this
case a single quote. The database sees this as the end of the string and
throws an error due to what it sees as bad syntax:
insert into myTable(NAME, SIZE) values('Bob O'Reilly','36L')
using your example, myQUOTEnameQUOTEis Manny, would give:
...values(mynameis Manny,... where the after my would be seen as the
end of the string.
In Perl and PHP, for example, this would be written my\name\is Manny.
But, if there's no such creature as an escape char in Lingo, then I'll
just have to filter out the double quotes, as I think single quotes would
be more prevalent in this case. So, I'm using the QUOTES, but to surround
the strings in the SQL as I build the variable:
SQL=insert into myTable(NAME, SIZE) values(QUOTEBob
O'ReillyQUOTE,QUOTE36LQUOTE) which sends the db the
following:
insert into myTable(NAME, SIZE) values(Bob O'Reilly,36L)
I just need to watch for the double quotes in the MUI window when the user
enters the name. Which brings me back to my other question, for which
I've found no solution in my searches...How to set the value of an
#editText widget in a MUI window.
Thanks,
Mike

lingo-l (no subject)
Hi everyone, Here's a MIAW question for you - Is there any way of detecting when a windowType=6 MIAW is maximized by the user? Windowtype 6 means that there is a title bar with the maximize/minimize/quit buttons. I would like to figure out a way to detect when the user clicks maximize or normalize, in order to scale the screen accordingly, but can't seem to find a way. Alternately, is there anyway to create a projector with a fully functional title bar, meaning the maximize button works? Since the projectors seem to only have the minimize or quit button functional, I am making a 1x1 pixel stage and having the program run in a MIAW that can be maximized. If there's a smarter way to do this, let me know!

Re: lingo-l director-bug: contains() and offset() mix up chars
hi roymeo, sorry, maye I was a bit unclear, those charcodes (0x8A and 0x9A, or in other words: #138 and #154) are the codes for german special chars ä (a umlaut) and ö (o umlaut) in the MAC ROMAN CODEPAGE. the letters you mention are correct for the ANSI CODEPAGE (iso-8859-1/windows-1251) . In fact, I discovered those bugs when I wrote a script that converts mac roman text to ansi text, and which works fine for all other letters except those. But anyway, it definetely is a bug, because I would expect that contains() and offset() work for all chars (except for 0x00), no matter what letter they stand for. it's a strange behavior to mix up chars in such basic string functions. valentin roymeo wrote: I just tested this on the PC those are the upper and lower case s with a reversed ^ over them.

S and s This is confirmed by my HTML Reference book (up to HTML 4): #138; in HTML is Uppercase S with canon (nonstandard) #154; in HTML is Lowercase s with canon (nonstandard) along with the note: Note: in the standard, the values from 127 to 159 are not assigned. Authors are advised not to use them. Many of them only work under windows or produce different characters on other operating systems or with different default font sets. -- p 1008 in HTML: The Complete Reference, Second Edition, ©1999 I believe the regular place for the lowercase umlat characters are: 0228 = ä 0235 = ë 0239 = ï 0246 = ö 0252 = ü those characters have been typed in on the numeric keypad while holding the ALT key on a PC, so those numbers certainly work for me on a WinPC. I suggest you make sure you're using the correct character reference. (and when someone has a suggestion or question about what you're doing, you might consider double-checking your info...) rö¥meõ At 12:04 AM 4/9/2004, you wrote: hi daniel, no, those are the mac char codes for the german special chars ä (a umlaut) and ö (o umlaut), both lower case. valentin In this case, is it possible that these two characters (138 and 154) are lower and upper case versions of one another?

Re: lingo-l zooming windows
Thanks Sean for your help. You have given me a great start. I'll let you know if I can come up with anything that works. AD Sean Wilson said: I'm not sure it would fire when returning to an open but non-maximized state from (a) minimized ... state, but activateWindow or activateApplication should fire when returning from a minimized state. I don't how to detect a return to normal from maximized if zoomWindow doesn't catch this transition. -Sean.
