Response to: phone number field not displaying

Sample project does display phone Field. Now I need to get some savvy for comparing the source code. It might be a whole lot easier to review the right way than look through the wrong way I wrote it.
We'll see.

  • corr I translate Mike's web pages to pdf

    I should have written : "Key value correct in source, incorrect in web page."
    Hey, we all make mistakes if we are "pushing the edge" (like Mike, Help Viewer writers, debuggers all do).

    Took a break for exercise and then took fresh look at nib and speculated how it might have its columns accessed.
    The key name was Email but Mike had written forKey:@"email Address" in creatRecord of pdf instructions. He wrote it up correctly in the example source code.
    The gesture question remained. I tried using the clipboard icon in help viewer and got a strange copy into bbedit and projectbuilder, eg ">" for ">", "&" for "&", "<" for "<". And with the straight copy fixed, I got direct data entry! The gesture was double click, change cell, enter.
    The straight paste prettyprinted made clear the translations in the paste were really a fly in the ointment.
    ;-)
    Feeling groovy.

      Sorry about the code typo. It should be changed to Email soon. Thanks for catching it. I knew i'd be causing myself trouble by changing all the @"email Address" keys to @"Email"!
