Writing an Event Handler for the Button

Go Up to Getting started with IntraWeb Index

Go Up to C++Builder Developer's Guide

The form does not yet perform any actions when the user clicks the OK button.

For information on editing the main form, see Editing the Main Form.

You will now write an event handler that will display a greeting when the user clicks OK.

1. Double-click the OK button on the form. An empty event handler is created in the editor window, like the one shown here:

procedure TformMain.IWButton1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin

end;

2. Using the editor, add code to the event handler so it looks like the following:

   procedure TformMain.IWButton1Click(Sender: TObject);
   var s: string;
   begin
      s := editName.Text;
      if Length(s) = 0 then
         WebApplication.ShowMessage("Please enter your name.")
      else
      begin
         WebApplication.ShowMessage("Hello, " + s +"!");
         editName.Text := "";
      end;
   end;
