I'm still a bit confused as to what the desired end result is. Are you
saying that the first line always has to have the same level of
indentation in every record, and that subsequent lines should have
lesser indents? Like this:
email
phone
address1
address2
address3
fax
And then in another record:
phone
address1
fax
Is that what you're trying to do? Or do you want the last line to
always be flush left and the previous lines to be indented, like this:
email
phone
address1
address2
address3
fax
And then in another record:
phone
address1
fax
Either way, the amount of code in the rule can be greatly reduced. Any
time you have basically the same few lines of code over and over again,
you can refactor it to make it more succinct and manageable.
I don't have your job or a data file with those same fields and rules,
but I created this rule for the Cell Phone Tutorial:
var indent = 0;
function Repeat(s, n)
{
var out = "";
for (var i = 0; i < n; i++)
out += s;
return out;
}
function IndentedLine(content)
{
if (!content)
return "";
return Repeat("<t>", indent++) +
NormalizeEntities(content) + "<br>\n";
}
function IndentedFieldLines()
{
var s = "";
for (var i = 0; i < arguments.length; i++)
s += IndentedLine(Field(arguments[i]));
return s;
}
return IndentedFieldLines("FName", "LName", "AccountNo",
"Add1", "Add2", "City", "State", "Zip");
You can see how this can more easily be extended to modify the field
names without having to rewrite multiple lines of code. This isn't
exactly what you're trying to do, but I need more clarification about
what that is.
