Hello. I have 3 questions about B+ and server and gadget features
1)CAn I make a label gadget, then take the text that is entered and store it in a string???
2)THen, i want to take that string and send it to a premade server made with B+ on any port, for now lets say 225.
And 3)On the server, take the info sent to it by the client and save that into a string
Thanks alot,
Paul B

SetBuffer(DesktopBuffer())	;USED so that stringwidth() won't error

mainwin = CreateWindow("Paul B",0,0,400,400)

labstrn$ = "Text Entry:"
thelab = CreateLabel(labstrn$,0,0,StringWidth(labstrn$),40,mainwin)

thefield = CreateTextField(StringWidth(labstrn$),0,200,StringHeight(labstrn$)+5,mainwin)


but = CreateButton("press",0,40,40,40,mainwin)




If False Then

;;;;server code
myServer = CreateTCPServer(225)

Repeat

strStream=AcceptTCPStream(myServer)
If strStream Then 
	takenString$ = ReadString$(strStream)
	Print takenString$
EndIf

Select WaitEvent(100)
Case $803
	End
End Select

EndIf





Repeat

Select WaitEvent()
Case $401
	Select EventSource()
	Case but
		inString$ = TextFieldText(thefield)
		Print "'"+inString$+"'"
		
		upstream = OpenTCPStream("127.0.0.1",225)	;or ip of the server
		If upstream Then
			WriteLine upstream,inString$
			CloseTCPStream upstream
		EndIf
		
	End Select
Case $803
	End
End Select

Forever


i am too newb, somebody plz tell me the way to put code into forum posts

Rck there is an FAQ here on the web .. somewhere, basically type open square bracket code closed square bracket then add your code then open square bracket backslash code closed square bracket. Hope that makes sense. Also try the same thing but with codebox instead of code for a scrolling codebox with green text. Btw you have just "hijacked" this topic which not everyone likes, but I don't mind.

What are the forum codes?

BTW, I got the link to that page simply by typing [faq 2[

(except the second bracket is backwards of course...)
