Hi,

When you edit the code of a form created with chronoforms, all the code is black.
It's not very easy to debug/code like this.

Is there any possibilitie to color the code like in scite/gedit. (highlight keyword of the language,etc.)

thanks,

David

Hi David,

I've no idea how easy it would be to put that into a text box there.

If I work with forms of any length then I include the box content in from an external file and use an FTP editor to work on it with color highlighting and some debugging.

Hi,

It's exactly what i done, yes it's easy but (for me) it's not userfriendly.

Especially as you have a little screen with multiple window open or you want just to change 4 or 5 lines.

Thanks for the answer.

Hi David,

I have big screens - that helps a lot :-)

I put this code in the ChronoForms Form HTML box and save the form; then I can then do all my editing externally.

<?php
if ( !$mainframe->isSite() ) return;
require_once(JPATH_SITE.DS.'components'.DS.'com_chronocontact'.DS.'includes'.DS.'test_form_17'.DS.'formhtml.php');
?>
