Options for Redactor doesn't work

[Matthew]

Hello

NetTalk:   7.07
Clarion:    8.9759

There is some problem with setting options for Redactor.

I try for example:
    loc:options = p_web.SetOption(loc:options,'source','false') in ! Start of "After Value" embed
to hide source button and it doesn't work.

Is this a bug?
How can I sets options for Redactor?

BTW: Bruce, Are You planning to update Redactor to version 8.2.4?

Regards,
Matthew

Hi Matthew,

>> Is this a bug?

yes. short answer: fixed in 7.08.

Now for the long answer;

JavaScript has the concept of true and false which are distinct from 1 and 0. It also has two different ways to compare values.
In JavaScript, == is the same as a clarion = - ie it converts types and makes a reasonable comparison. So in clarion if you compare the blank string with 0 it sees that as a true statement. as in

if '' = 0
  ! yes!
end


So in JavaScript the statement
if (a== b)
is true if a = 1 and b = true.

Unfortunately JavaScript also has an "exactly equal" test. They use === for this. so
if (a === b)
is not true if a = 1 and b = true.

Clarion has no real equivalent of this test, and no way to distinguish true from 1.

the Redactor code unfortunately tests options using === - so the parameter has to be false, not 0, and not the string "false".

I've tweaked the 7.08 code to allow for this distinction. You code (in 7.08) would be correct.
