Actually I don't think it's the Admin tool doing it.  It's the Midtier.
It has some directive turned on by default to replace multiple spaces
with one.  Thus...

 

Hello    I     am    Norm

 

Becomes...

 

Hello I am Norm

 

I don't like things that try to help me when I don't ask them to,
especially things I can't turn off.

There must be some Java directive or something in play here that trims
whitespace by default.  In other words, it replaces multiple spaces with
one.  If so, there must be some way to turn it off. 

 

It's little crap like this that really slows projects down.  I have a
perfectly good application in 5.1.2, I upgrade the server, and days
later I start getting calls about fields being jumbled or not lining up.
I think, "The user must be crazy.  That CAN'T be happening." 

 

But lo and behold it is.  Then I look like the chump for not
"thoroughly" testing the applications before upgrading. 

 

Very, very frustrating.

We had to manually adjust field widths (wider and taller), and then it
seemed to start working OK...

 

Of course this was after many hours of save form, clear mid tier cache,
try, rinse and repeat...

 

Thanks-n-advance ;

Subject: Radio Buttons Not Displaying Spaces

 

Happy Friday, everyone:

 

Somewhat continuing an earlier thread I posted (to which I received no
replies...leading me to think no one has experienced the problem I'm
reporting or no one has any ideas for a work around), I've noticed that
the 6.3 Midtier no longer displays spaces in the Alias Value.  In the
past I've used spaces to increase the amount of spaces between radio
button options, which has been particularly useful for radio buttons
used in apps like survey forms. 

 

For example, using spaces in a radio button can make a field like this:

 

I am pleased with my overall experience O 1 O 2 O 3 O 4 O 5

 

Look like this:

 

I am pleased with my overall experience O 1     O 2     O 3     O 4
O 5

 

This works perfectly well in the 5.1.2 Midtier, but the 6.3 Midtier does
not render the spaces.

 

Any ideas on this?

Norm
