$Web_IsIndex_Parm_Line
<section begin="desc" />Value of isindex field line<section end="desc" />
$Web_IsIndex_Parm_Line retrieves the value of a specific line in an isindex field. It is especially useful for textarea input fields. $Web_IsIndex_Line is a synonym for $Web_IsIndex_Parm_Line.
Since isindex fields are more commonly called "URL parameters," you can use another synonym for this $function, $Web_URL_Parm_Line.
Syntax
<section begin="syntax" /> %STRING = $WEB_ISINDEX_[PARM_]LINE( fieldname, occurrence, - line_num) <section end="syntax" />
$Web_IsIndex_Parm_Line takes three arguments and returns a string, or null for any error condition.
| fieldname | The name of the isindex field, returned by $Web_IsIndex_Name. Required argument if occurrence not specified, otherwise optional. |
|---|---|
| occurrence | The occurrence number of an isindex field, or the occurrence number of the isindex field matching 'fieldname', if fieldname is specified. Optional argument if fieldname is specified, otherwise it is required. |
| line_num | Line number in the isindex field for which data is to be returned. This is an optional argument and defaults to 1. |
A line is considered to be a block of text that is terminated by either an ASCII carriage return (X'0D') or a carriage return followed by a line feed (X'0A'). This is what is ordinarily sent by a browser to mark the end of each line of a textarea input field.
This example places each line of a textarea isindex field into an occurrence of a multiply occurring field.
