$Web_Sel_Check validates that a string matches one of the options of a global select element. An overview of the $WEB_SEL_x functions is provided in $Web_Selp.
$Web_Sel_Check takes three arguments and returns a numeric result code; for some types of errors, the current User Language request is cancelled.
Syntax
<section begin="syntax" /> %RC = $Web_Sel_Check(global_name, selected_value, option_keywords) <section end="syntax" />
global_name | The name of the global select element containing the values to check against. The global select element with this name must have been created by $Web_Save_Sel. This is a required argument. | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
selected_value | A string which is checked to see if it is equal to one of the values in the options list. This a required argument. | ||||
option_keywords | A string of blank-separated keywords specifying special processing for this $function. Any of the following is valid:
This an optional argument. |
Code | Meaning |
---|---|
0 | Selected_value equal to one of the values in global select element global_name. |
1 | Global_name not a saved global select element, and NOCAN option specified. |
2 | Selected_value not equal to any of the values in global select element global_name, and CANCHECK option not specified. |
Any other error results in cancellation of the User Language request. |
The following statement will cancel the User Language request if the string 'DAY6' is not one of the values of the global select element 'DAYS.ESPERANTO':
%RC = $Web_Sel_Check('DAYS.ESPERANTO', 'DN6', 'CANCHECK')
See $Web_Selp for an extended example using other $WEB_SELx functions.
