how to space out between words on g_form.showFieldMsg

Kifrez · ‎07-12-2022

Hi ,

Could someone please help me with g_form.showFieldMsg?

As per script below, I have put some spaces in between however on the form, it shows with only 1 space in between words. How I can ensure that HH is directly below Hours box and mm is directly below minutes box and so on.

The script is

g_form.showFieldMsg('time_worked',' Time format is         hh         mm          ss','info');

Hi,

html tags are not supported in field messages

try this once; it worked well for me

to give one space you can use this \u00a0; to give multiple spaces you can repeat that \u00a0

g_form.showFieldMsg('time_worked',' Time format is\u00a0hh\u00a0mm\u00a0ss','info');

Output: I tried with some other field on my form and it worked well

1) with 1 space

2) with 2 spaces

Hi

you can try this

g_form.showFieldMsg('time_worked',"Time format is");
g_form.showFieldMsg('time_worked', "hh");
g_form.showFieldMsg('time_worked', "mm");
g_form.showFieldMsg('time_worked', " ss");

Please Mark this as correct if its helpful.

Hi the above code show's something like this for me as you can't add newline(\n) or <br> they are not supported so only way is to add 4 different showfieldMsg for the same field.
