DisplayBox.InitBox()
None.
True if successful, or false if the box had already been initiated.
Function; Draws the box based upon how you defined the columns in the paramters tab and also if you used the DisplayBox.newColumn() function.
The following will assume you did not add any columns using the parameters tab in the GUI. This will construct a DisplayBox with 3 columns, all will automatically size itself to display all 3 columns and up to 6 rows before showing the scrollbars. We will set the Email Address column to enable HTML text, this way we can make the email address a clickable link and initiate a mailto.
//construct columns
myDisplayBox.newColumn("WholeName",250,false,false,false,true,"Contacts
Name");
myDisplayBox.newColumn("Phone",150,false,false,false,true,"Contacts
Name");
myDisplayBox.newColumn("Email",175,true,false,false,true,"Email
Address "); //We set isHTML to true so we can easily do mailto's to this
