ST INSERT URL
ST INSERT URL
The ST INSERT URL command inserts a URL link in the styled text field or variable designated by the object parameter. Passing the optional * parameter indicates that the object parameter is an object name (string). If you do not pass this parameter, it indicates that the object parameter is a field or variable. In this case, you pass a field or variable reference instead of a string (field or variable object only). In the urlText parameter, pass the visible text of the URL, as it should appear in the object. For example, text labels such as "4D Web Site" or "Follow this link for more information" can be used. You can also use the address itself, for instance "http://www.4d.com". In the urlAddress parameter, pass the complete address you want the browser page to connect to, for example "http://www.4D.com". The optional startSel and endSel parameters designate a selection of text in object. The startSel and endSel values express a plain text selection, without taking into account any style tags that may be present.
4D provides predefined constants so that you can designate the selection limits automatically in the startSel and endSel parameters. These constants are found in the "Multistyle Text" theme:
(*) You must pass an object name in object to be able to use this constant. If you pass a reference to a field or variable, the command is applied to all the text of the object. Note: If startSel is greater than endSel (except when endSel is 0), the command does nothing and the OK variable is set to 0. Once the link is inserted, it is active: using Ctrl+click (Windows) or Command+click (OS X) on its label opens a page of the default browser at the address specified in the urlAddress parameter. You want to insert a link to the 4D Web site to replace the text selected in the object: vTitle:="4D Web Site"
