Colon removal function

[Flash226 3]

 

There is data in the scene that uses a colon (18:36). The number is taken from the variable.

What function can I use to remove the colon in the scene?

Required (1836)

Try this...

 

name = '18:36'

fibaro:debug('Name: ' ..name)

name = string.gsub (name, ':', '')

fibaro:debug('Name (edited): ' ..name)

Sorry, but it cannot be saved at this format. You fail.

LUA can save vars in string “” , numeric 123 or 123.8877 etc also LUA has tables 

but 19:01 it’s not valid type.

can you show me all your requirements or write me to PM
