Hi Dave
Just a small help for you
your code contains if x=y.......end
this will set the variable x to being y before testing it!
you need to use the comparison operator == (2 equals)
as in: if x == y .... end

I have a shoes program (below this message) where what i want to do is
to allow the user to enter data into 1 of 2 edit_lines.
From the user pressing enter i then check which edit_line has
something in it
and setup parameters for a SQL statement that 's in a class called
dbase that's inside a module called sqlite3_calls.
this tho is of no importance yet as i cannot capture the enter key!
Note I'm only wanting to get 1 of the two edit_lines working then get the
other done once i working based on the solution for the 1st one.
Currently what happens is that the program runs but when I alt+/ to
see the debug window after my shoes screen appears i see a comment
saying pressed enter! when in fact i haven't press a dam thing except .
did a search on keypress and edit_line and keypress but nothing i saw
really gave me any hints.
Dave.
code as it stands is below.....
require "sqlite3_calls.rb"
Shoes.app do
# extend Dbase #for the purposes isolation I've commented out this line
stack :top =>5, :height => 90 do
title "Find Customer Info", :align => 'center'
end
flow :top => 100, height => 70 do
para strong "Customer nos"
@custno = edit_line :width => 50 :focus
para strong 'customer name'
@custname = edit_line :width => 270
end
if keypress = :enter or keypress = "\n"
debug 'pressed enter !'
if @custno != nil
para 'cust number has a value !'
# rows = rec_to_find('customers', 'cust_nos', @custno) # please ignore
else
if @custname != nil
para 'cust name has a value !'
end
end
end
flow :top => 550 do
para strong 'data return shown here!'
end
end
