[haoujey]

Hello,

I'm trying to find a solution for a complex problem. I would like to integrate smileys in text.

For example when user types "" , it's imediatly replaced by .

Any ideas how to do this in a clean way ?

thx

I didn't know that, but smileys are allready present in editbox android version ! \o/

in the windows version the smileys are converted to "?", but in android version the smileys are shown.

But i don't understand how it's working, when i type ":" then ")" it's not converted into a smiley, but when i use the keyboard integrated smileyss it's inserted into the edit box as a smiley.
When i send the text to my database it's sent and stored with a smiley. And when i read it back from the app, the text is shown with the smiley.

what are the codes used to represent the smileys ?
