Hi all,
I'm getting close to complete write/ln and read/ln text driver for web utilizing
PWU. Basic functions have been done. Splitting process (asking for input and
getting the value) has solved easily because they are already seperated on the
driver. But there is still one problem left. I've been trying to solve this
almost all the day long, but I got no clues.
The complete webtext.pas unit is attached. This version has been reduced, I've
removed any unnecessary procedures/functions. Please bring your attention to 2
functions that I have problem with, they are WebTextRead() at line 106 and
WebReturn() at line 127. You can skip the write/ln functions as I believe they
have work well.
The problem with read/ln procedures is that I keep losing the first input
variabel content. What I meant 'losing' is the values got shifted to the next
variable. Here's for example:
program test;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
uses
WebText;
var
s, t, u: string;
begin
Write('Enter your last name: ');
Read(s); Writeln;
Write('Enter your first name: ');
Read(t); Writeln;
Write('Enter your pet name: ');
Read(u); Writeln;
Write('Your full name is: ', s+', '+t+', '+u);
Writeln;
end.
If I enter values 'var1' to s, 'var2' to t, and 'var3' to u, the result become:
s contains nothing (empty/null?), t contains 'var1', and u contains 'var2'. I
don't understand why it becomes like that. I think all code and logic is already
in order.
Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
