What's going on here?

Code: Select all

func$ = "Window" ; debug Window 1 0

; comment\uncomment
; func$ = "Window" ; debug Window 0 1

Debug ""+func$ +" "+ Bool(func$ = "Window") +" "+ Bool(func$ = "Window")

What's going on here? Why do the same words look different?

not here.

In both cases: Window 1 1

I looked
It's the browser that fixes it.
Can you download and watch the "1.pb" file from here?

Have a look at what it looks like in my Notepad++:



(ZWNBSP means "ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE")

I downloaded and tried 1.pb and you're right. It does debug display "Window 0 1" (after uncommenting)

Wow, now what, how do I deal with this?

[Caronte3D]

You can use before the debug:

Code: Select all

func$=RemoveString(func$,"")

and... inside "" is the ZWNBSP

It just looks like you have copied the word `window` from a web page or chat or something like that. The zero-width non-breaking space is usually used to make prevent words from wrapping at the end of a text box.

[Nituvious]

You deal with it by using Utf8

Yes I got this problem since 2016. That is the several clipboards. As usual, it is Microsoft which puts a clipboard "bad" content on Windows 8 (in 2016)...
