Using the {MACROBUTTON NoMACRO[type here]} code to get a few options in a row.

Question

Hello,

With the help of people on this forum I was able to create areas for people to click on something that would indicate what they should be typing, and once clicked it would disappear, and they would type their info.

Here is what I have so far:

{MACROBUTTON NoMACRO[type your name here]}

This works great....I put a style sheet on this and all is well...

Now, I want to be able to do an address, but I can't just say type address here, because I need them to put 3 blank spaces between street address and city and then city has to have a comma after it. So I tried doing 4 of these on one line for the 4 pieces of data needed (street address, city, state and zip code) and played with the spaces and the comma, but nothing is working.

Any help is greatly appreciated..

thanks

Answer 1

No, the case of the word wouldn't have any effect.

Hi Jay,

Thanks so much....I think what might have happened was I was applying a stylesheet to the text after the fact and NoMACRO became NOMACRO, since it was using all caps...would that have messed up up?

Thanks!

The spaces and the comma can't be inside the MacroButton fields; they have to go between the fields.

{MACROBUTTON NoMACRO[type your street address here]}   {MACROBUTTON NoMACRO[type your city here]},   {MACROBUTTON NoMACRO[type your state here]} {MACROBUTTON NoMACRO[type your zip code here]}
