connecting functions in the expression editor

[matthias_prller]

Hi everybody,

what's wrong with this expression:

If ( stringindexof( Local.string , Local.search_string ) == 0 , true , false)

I get an "Invalid variable in expression If" error.

Isn't it possible to connect functions together?

or the more spectific question: How is it possible to get true or false if a string contains another one?

Regards,

Matthias

Just take a closer look at the difference between the built-in functions : If and if(boolean, value1, value2)

So when you are using the boolean expression the clause will be if, not If (small 'i', instead of capital 'I')

Matthias Pröller,

I guess you have used small letters for if syntax.. Error is caused by the space between if and (

ensure it looks like if(.

Thank you, it was something of all the solutions.

I tried with spaces and without but not with a small "i".

Hi

In the Conditional Action Block, you can map input1 to

stringindexof( Local.string , Local.search_string ).

If it will retun 0, means false. If it will retun 1, means true.
