Tip 2: Recursive functions in Deluge: How to dynamically run a function for a specified number of times.
Hi folks, As part of the Zoho Creator - Tips and Tricks series every fortnight, we are back today with a new tip on Recursive functions. Let us first quickly understand what Recursive functions are: A function that calls itself one or more times is known as a Recursive function. That is, you can execute a function to perform a particular action a specific number of times. And, at the end of each iteration, a new output is generated. Recursive functions are commonly used by programmers as it enablesPass values from stateless form into function

I have a view based on a form that contains a rich text field. Works fine for editing in the form, but all export options for the corresponding view (PDF, XLS etc.) show embedded html in the text, things like <BR> for line breaks and for spaces. I cannot produce proper output from this view and that is a huge problem! I could convert the field to multiline plain text without a huge loss of functionality, but it's my understanding that Zoho would throw away the data in doing so. That isError in syntax parser involving invokeUrl and workdrive upload file
