iMacros EOL - Attention!

The renewal maintenance has officially ended for Progress iMacros effective November 20, 2023 and all versions of iMacros are now considered EOL (End-of-Life). The iMacros products will no longer be supported by Progress (aside from customer license issues), and these forums will also no longer be moderated from the Progress side.

Thank you again for your business and support.

Sincerely,
The Progress Team

Editor confused by double quote

Post by giorgio79 » Sat Oct 16, 2010 3:58 am

Hello,

Try this

Code: Select all

TAG POS=1 TYPE=TEXTAREA FORM=NAME:thisform ATTR=ID:bodytext CONTENT=Todays<SP>Gear:<SP>Kutmaster<SP>SOA<SP>Special<SP>Tactical<SP>Operations<SP>Series.<SP>forTactical<SP>11"<SP>Fixed<SP>Blade

After the double quote the entire text is marked as light blue. Even if I escape the double quote.

Any tips?

Hello giorgio79,

The built-in editor uses syntax highlighting and highlights strings enclosed in quotes in light blue. It looks like it is highlighting all text up until the end quote or until the end of the line. This only affects the display of the text in the editor and does not affect the functionality of your macro.
Regards,

Thanks Tom, yep it does work fine, only the syntax highlighting is buggy.

Could you please add it to the issue list? :)
