Saving and displaying user input

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

Hello

I am sorry for the potentially silly question but I am trying to program the following events:

  1. App asks for user name (user inputs name as text)

  2. App asks for favorite color (user inputs color as text)

  3. App stores input into database or temporary storage

  4. App displays name and color at later stage. For example: “Welcome John! Your favorite color is blue!”

I cannot seem to find this anywhere but it seems basic. Thanks! [import]uid: 154776 topic_id: 27185 reply_id: 327185[/import]

Hey there,

First things first, if you are only saving a few little bits of info check out Ego - http://corona.techority.com/2011/12/28/ego-easy-saving-and-loading-in-your-corona-apps/

Then start with the text field, do you have it set up? Do you have an event for once the user is done entering text?

Let me know :slight_smile:
