    Support,

    I have an app with a push button which is used to send form contents by email. The push button Action – On Click is set to “Send Email”

    I have placed the following within the “Send Email:” pop-up window….

    RESULTS: ( ${units} )
    
    Pre-Impact:
    
    Bullet Vehicle (V1):  ${BulletPreVel} (${BulletPreSpd})
    Target Vehicle (V2):  ${TargetPreVel} (${TargetPreSpd})
    
    Post-Impact:
    
    Bullet Vehicle (V3):  ${BulletPostVel} (${BulletPostSpd})
    Target Vehicle (V4):  ${TargetPostVel} (${TargetPostSpd})

    Where, I am calling some of the form variables in the body of the email. As you can see in the above example, I would like for the Bullet Vehicle and the Target Vehicle information to appear on separate lines of text within the email’s body.

    However, the email that I’ve sent while testing this on my iPhone returns the following format in my Outlook email:

    RESULTS: ( ${units} )
    
    Pre-Impact:
    
    Bullet Vehicle (V1):  ${BulletPreVel} (${BulletPreSpd}) Target Vehicle (V2):  ${TargetPreVel} (${TargetPreSpd})
    
    Post-Impact:
    
    Bullet Vehicle (V3):  ${BulletPostVel} (${BulletPostSpd}) Target Vehicle (V4):  ${TargetPostVel} (${TargetPostSpd})

    Where the Bullet Vehicle and the Target Vehicle information is on the same line.

    How can I get the email to return the information on separate lines and not the same line?

    Thanks in advance.

    CincyPlanet,

    Alrighty, I am just trying to wrap my head around the javascript coding. If the HTML coding you are suggesting a straight forward approach and applicable to native apps for smartphones and not web apps?

    Thanks

    @mreade,

    I’ve done some tests with the project you sent us last week and got the expected result. I also did a sample design that should send a similar email, and didn’t have troubles with any of them. We will continue investigating later today or tomorrow and will follow up with you as soon as I have more information.

    Support,

    While you are at it, in the same project that you have, can you explain to me why the following occurs:

    I have a combolist on page1 of a multipage bar
    One page2, after entering data in fields, and selecting “next” with number keypad visible,
    The combolist (“units”) pops up when selecting “next” after the last field entry on page2.

    I hope this makes sense to you.

    I just cannot figure out why this is popping up when it is not on the same page?
