Re: e-RPG input box -- RPG400-L

I'm not quite understanding your question.  You want an example on how to code 
text in an RPG program?  As I understand
it, e-RPG is just RPG that goes up to the web.

I can think of many ways to code this, the best way probably creatting a text 
physical file and putting in the text there then
reading that file in your RPG program and "writing" it to the socket, or 
copying it to a the HTTP server, or some such.

A simple read/write loop would do it.

I think if I was going to do this, I would open the text file as User Open, 
override the member I wanted to display,
then open the file, and do a while not EOF loop, reading and writing.  Then 
close the file.

Or is there something else you're looking for?

Regards,

Jim Langston
