BBjHtmlEdit::setPlainText

Description

In BBj 16.0 and higher, this method sets the text content of a BBjHtmlEdit control.

Syntax

Return Value

Method

void

setPlainText(string text)
void setPlainText(string text, string head)

Parameters

Variable

Description

text

Specifies the text content to be displayed in the control.

head

In BBj 21.13 and higher, specifies the HTML markup to be inserted between the <head> and </head> tags.

The default is: "<style>body{white-space:pre-wrap;}</style>"

Return Value

None.

Remarks

Internally, the BBjHtmlEdit control is always an HTML editor. The BBjCEdit control may be a more appropriate choice if the application requires a very basic plain text editor. BBjHtmlEdit::setPlainText wraps your text in HTML markup code telling the control to display it as plain text. If htmledit! is your BBjHtmlEdit control and text$ is plain text to be displayed in it, then htmledit!.setPlainText(text$) is equivalent to the following:

text$ = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."

html! = text$

html! = html!.replaceAll("&","&amp;").replaceAll("<","&lt;").replaceAll(">","&gt;")

header$ = "<html><head><style>body{white-space:pre-wrap;}</style></head><body><pre>"

trailer$ = "</pre></body></html>"

html$ = header$ + html! + trailer$

htmledit!.setText(html$)
