Hi Geoff:
I think what would be best for this is to use two parenthesis to start
the condition. the two or conditions should be within the second
parenthesis so that the ors will be evaluated first. at the end of the
final or, close the inner parenthesis and then continue with the and
condition. finally closing the last paren following that condition.
Here is what I mean. I hope it works as you intend.
if ((GetTextInRect (345, 327, 501, 350) != "TakeAway Unit"
|| GetTextInFrame
("ConfirmTakeAwayCustomerDetailsTriggerConfirmTakeawayDetailsScreen")
!=
"Unit")
&& GetTextInRect (273, 327, 417, 350) != "Confirm Take") then
LoadFrameSetFr ("CustomerDetails")
EndIf

Guys. Sorry to be boring, I'm not that long into scripting, and even
the
most basic thing seems to be eluding me tonight! and I really would
like
this to work. if any kind soul could help me debug this simple if
statement?
The Code follows: what I want to say is:
if this condition is so,
or, if this and this condition are so,
then do x. but it isn't working the way I'm writing it, so somethin is
wrong. when I just have the first or, branch of it though, which is the
screen I'm currently working with, it functions fine, so it's something
to
do with the multiple statements that I'm messing up,
I've tried putting parens around only the two, and, statements, and
around
the whole thing from beginning of the first one straight after the if,
and
at the end, right before the then, which is the way it's written below
here
now, but neither one seems to function, not that I fvelt it should need
parens around it anywhere really anyway!.
here comes the code:
if (GetTextInRect (345, 327, 501, 350) != "TakeAway Unit"
|| GetTextInFrame
("ConfirmTakeAwayCustomerDetailsTriggerConfirmTakeawayDetailsScreen")
!=
"Unit"
&& GetTextInRect (273, 327, 417, 350) != "Confirm Take") then
LoadFrameSetFr ("CustomerDetails")
EndIf
in the above, the first if statement although definitely true, is not
working as if the function thinks it's true, i.e. the text is present,
and
it's been told only if absent to follow through,
yet the LoadFrameSet function is still happily firing!
any help greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
