[1.3b56] Dialog/Frame Form Replacing Semi-colon

Post by zEal »

When using a form in a dialog/frame with the method "json", all semi-colons are replaced with &#59. This is fine if you only intend to display the form input, but presents problems if you actually want to use the semi-colon as a semi-colon. I imagine this replacement is in place from when form fields were only sent to the action macro as a string property list, and still applies to people that use forms that way.

It would be great if this replacement did not occur when the method is set to "json". :)




Work-around:
Run replace( Field, "&#59", ";" ) on all fields prior to using.
