Mixing HTML & LC

[paulrichards999]

I've been playing with Livecode server recently, but what seems obvious to me , or would work in livecode, doesn't appear to work in webpage.

Example - login page

It posts username and password to another LC page that does it's bit, and if invalid returns user back to login page with an error ie: login.lc?error=1 (this part all works fine and as expected)

I'm trying this in the location i wish the error to appear
<?lc
Global gErrText
If gErrText is not empty then
Put "<div class="alert alert-danger" role="alert">"
Put "<strong>"&gErrtext&"</strong>"
put "</div>"
end if
?>

This line" Put "<div class="alert alert-danger" role="alert">" (or any line with mention of class) results in a livecode error
file "E:/SERVER/Apache24/htdocs/login.lc"
row 76, col 32: put: preposition must be 'before', 'into' or 'after' (alert)
row 76, col 32: if: error in command (alert)
row 76, col 32: script: bad statement (alert)

How do I use html code with put statements, other than basic <p> <strong> etc tags ? Or how to make them HTMl/lc friendly without manual dibbling of html string.

Thanks

Hi Paul,

At first glance, I believe it may be an inner quote issue with the first put statement.

Try this:

Code: Select all

Put "<div class=" & quote & "alert alert-danger" & quote & " role=" & quote & "alert" & quote & ">"

Also, when posting to the forum, you should always post your code inside of the code display markup keywords.

I hope this helps.

I think the problem is with the space character and the hyphen in the class:

Put "<div class="alert alert-danger" role="alert">"

Try putting an underscores in their places.

Code: Select all

...class="alert_alert_danger"...

Also make this change in the css definition (or wherever is used).
Hope that helps.
