Print [expressionA[, expressionB[, expressionC[, ...]]]]

Description

Print is an easy way text to an output window. It can handle up to 20 comma-delimited expressions, separating each with a space. When used without argument, Print writes a blank line to the output window.

When you execute Print, a window opens over your app with the output. The window can be closed by the user tapping on the x in the top right corner, or by executing this statement:

 NSB_Progress.style.display="none"

To clear the Print window, execute this statement:

 NSB.Print(False) 

This statement is very useful for debugging. It is an easy way to display the values of variables or other information. It can also be used to give information to the user in a dialog that he can dismiss.

Print output is formatted as HTML: any valid HTML expression may be used, including images and links.
