Display the properties of the selected object

[Sunny13]

I have made a component to set the properties of a selected text box. But while calling the JSFL file, using xml based dialog box, it is ready to set the new values to the text box , but does not display the current properties of the text box. Can we display the propertoes of the selected object in the dialog box in JSFL? .. Please help!!

if you mean in the dialogue from you xml file it will be possible via FLFile, but i don't know of anyt other way

hi hangalot... I read this post after a long time... I need the method you are talking about..................:)

[hangalot]

its not a method specificaly, using FLFile you can change file level stuff, so just parsing the xml file would do the trick

confused...!!!!!... not able to understand what you want to say... I need to pass the current parameters in the dialog box...

[hangalot]

yes. i understand that. do you know what FLFile is? if not read up about it.
xul is just a file containing text, meaning it can be parsed, and with flfile you can change the actual text data in the file in order to adapt it to your needs

Yeah..i have used the FLfile .... but still not able to get it...?

[hangalot]

lets say your xml file looks like this
<dialog buttons="accept, cancel" title="Embed ranges of text">
<grid>
<columns>
<column/>
<column/>
</columns>
<rows>
<row>
<label value="Ranges" />
<textbox id="range" value=""/>
</row>
etc

then you load this into a flFile stream
use string functions to split it
var arr = str.split(" id=\"range\" value=\"")
and then go str+="id=\"range\" value=\"" + myValue + ...

you get the idea now?
