FOOTING "{{text} {'options'}...}" |
| Category | BASIC |
| Type | Statement |
| Description |
designates a text string composed of literals and special options to output at the bottom of each page.
The "footing" expression is treated as any FlashBASIC character string and may be surrounded by double-quotes (") or backslashes (\) or the expression can be contained in a variable. Embedded "footing" options must be enclosed within single quotes, to distinguish them from text. Multiple options may be enclosed in the same set of single quotes. The "footing" may be changed by a new "footing" statement, and the new footing is output when the end of the current page is reached. The "page" statement is used to force pagination. The "system" function maintains line and page counters while "heading" and "footing" are active. |
