Well Steve, your try.c program worked as it should have, but in my
program, when I hide the form and goto the next form, and then come back
to the original form.. the contents of the input boxes are in fact gone.
When the user presses the next or back button, it does some necessary
operations, and then calls startup_form() for example:
void
xxxform_next (FL_OBJECT *ob, long data)
{
[stuff]
startup_form (ob, FLIGHTINFO);
}
and in startup_form();
void
startup_form (FL_OBJECT *ob, int screen)
[..snip..]
case FLIGHTINFO:
{
fl_hide_form (ob->form);
fl_show_form (fd_flightinfo->flightinfo, FL_PLACE_FREE_CENTER,
FL_FULLBORDER, "Flight$
sprintf (label, "Current Time: %sZ", timestring);
fl_set_object_label (fd_flightinfo->time_box, label);
break;
}
I do not free the form or anything, and still when I come back to it the
contents are gone. all of the form's FD structs are declared globally, and
are all initialized by their corresponing fl_create_form functions before
the first form is even showed.
I have xforms .88 (the glibc version) and I am running
redhat 5.1.
