Re: VTML edit tag dialogs: attributes with no value?
Ok I got it. I did this like 4 times with bad results so be careful how you
type it in. This is the line from one of my tags that tag editors that I got
to work like you want. It thinks checked it true and not checked is false
but don't forget the single quotes or it will through an error.
WIZIF edtThrowOnError EQ
'true'$$SpacingGap$${DefaultCase('ThrowOnError')}=$${Q}$$edtThrowOnError$${
Q}WIZSET SpacingGap = VertSpacingGap/WIZIF
How does everyone else feel about this behavior, I can update the custom tag
wizard to use this output instead of the current behavior that shows check
box attributes whether they are checked or not.
Your input would be appreciated.

Thanks Bryan, I'll have to try it out tomorrow when I get to work.
I haven't seen many tags that use the behaviour I am talking about, in fact
we are taling about making it =true or =false in the next version. I
don't know if there would be much use for that kind of behaviour in the
custom tag wizard, personally. Anyone else? It could result in cleaner, more
efficient code, I guess.
By the way I love the custom tag wizard, I used it to generate the first
version of the file, then tweaked the results by hand. Thanks!

RE: VTML edit tag dialogs: attributes with no value?
You can do a conditional output by using WIZIF So, your VTML portion of the TAGLAYOUT portion can do this: mytag WIZIF fieldname EQ 'true'TEXT_BOLD = 1/WIZIF This way it would only show up if true, not false or not selected at all. === Raymond Camden, Principal Spectra Compliance Engineer for Macromedia Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ UIN : 3679482 My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. - Yoda -Original Message- From: Kay Smoljak [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 21, 2001 2:25 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: VTML edit tag dialogs: attributes with no value? Hi all, I hope I can explain this well enough... I am playing with editing VTML files, and I have a perplexing problem. I am trying to create one for our CFX_PWIMAGEPROC. This tag has true/false attributes that do not require values, ie if TEXT_BOLD is present, any text the tag draws is bold. If it's not there, the text drawn is not bold. It's ok in the drop downs within Studio, but I'm trying to make an edit tag dialog. If I use a checkbox and no value is selected, the attribute is not included. If the checkbox is checked, TEXT_BOLD=true is included in the output. That's OK, because the tag will ignore the =true part and make any text bold. If the checkbox is set to true and then changed to be false, rather than removing the attribute completely, it sets it to TEXT_BOLD=false. This won't work because the tag is ignoring the value of the attribute and applying the effect if the attribute is present, which is obviously not going to give the correct results. ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
