Text Field - getString

by **tarnfeld** » Fri Sep 25, 2009 11:45 pm

For some reason, when i alert out the value of for example
var ur = window.textField.getString();
It gives me "(null)"!
Any idea why?

because textfield is not part of window, it's NimbleKit class instance, remove "window." and it should work

Ah ah ah ok

Hahahahah!!
I only use window, so i can share the variable over the whole javascript and functions over the page...

*UPDATE*
This makes no difference!

nobody can help you unless you show code how you created it at least

fair enough

Code: Select all

var textField = new NKTextField(); 
textField.init(24, 113, 270, 32); 
textField.setKeyboardType("URL"); 
textField.show();

This works, to show it..... but if i had this,

Code: Select all

<head>
<script>
function hello{
NKAlert("hi", textField.getString());
}
</head>
<body>
<script>
var textField = new NKTextField(); 
textField.init(24, 113, 270, 32); 
textField.setKeyboardType("URL"); 
textField.show();
</script>
<input type="button" onclick="hello
();">
</body>

I would be alerted (null)?

It does not work cause it's in different sections (<head> and <body>), move them to one section.
I will check that further, it returns (null) when textfield is empty but should return empty string...

Yah thats what i was thinking?
I will try moving them to see if that makes a difference

Is it worth fiddling around with UIPasteBoard now to get my update out on the app store, if 1.6 is a long way away?

by **sunny** » Sat Sep 26, 2009 12:45 pm

well, 1.6 will be in beta stage next week probably and released in two weeks, but this is not for sure

by **tarnfeld** » Sat Sep 26, 2009 12:48 pm

Ah ok, so its worth waiting

I have moved it and nothing.... it still returns null?
