LiveCode Forums

Bernd, Success!!! I've installed LiveCode on my other Mac (running OSX 10.4) and the revBrowser demo stack work is working beautifully... it is amazing to see the drag and drop of text working from the browser into the card field. In order to separate the dropped text fragments, is there a way I can...

Bernd, Many thanks!!!! For some reason, only my original Eval version of LiveCode studio is in my application folder! The new Livecode app that I purchased (the basic Win/Mac personal use version) is not visible when I open my App folder. Strangely, my LiveCode 4.5 app does appear in the App folder ...

Bernd, Is there any way to check whether I am in fact calling the revBrowser external? I earlier downloaded the revBrowser demo stack for runRev (not Livecode). I believe it dated back to May or June. I made sure this earlier demo stack was not running when I tried your stack. Is there a way to chec...

Bernd, The script I put into a new "Export to msg" button is: global gBrowserID on mouseUp put revBrowserGet(gBrowserId, "rect") end mouseUp As you recommended, I did not press this new button right away. I awaited for about five seconds to press it after clicking on the first "initialize browser" b...

Walt,

Will do - look forward to a rendezvous!

Best,

Mark

Richard, It's a delight to reconnect! Are you in the LA or San Diego area? I'd love to say thanks over a lunch for the insights you generously shared in the Supercard golden age... If I'm not overdrawing on your wellsprings of generosity, can I ask you for any ideas on the Livecode/web browser issue...

Bernd,

When I made the button as you described to export tData ("put tData into msg"), I did get the following location data for the rectangle:

50,30,526,360

I'll retry after disabling Safari extensions and post an update in a few minutes...

Best,

Bernd, After trying with Safari and then Firefox, and pressing the buttons in sequence (waiting for five seconds between each click), I'm still finding the same result - two gray rectangles! It does show "1" as the number of initialized browsers active. Would a field to catch the script execution pr...

Bernd, I've tried a couple of times now after changing the default browser to Safari and the default page to Google.com... still no browser display in the left-hand display pane for revBrowser. Rather than turning white, that pane remains gray (as does the snapshot pane, even after clicking the "tak...

Bernd, Appreciate your abiding interest and followthrough! The new stack was helpful in showing status. The browser window seems to initialize (with 1 instance of the browser in the status field) but the browser display pane is still bank. The snapshot pane also doesn't display any image. I've chang...

Bernd, Another insight - I hope - into the problem ... When I check the script in the "Initialize Browser" button, there's an issue with this line: put revBrowserOpen(tWinID,"http://www.openworld.com/openworld-people/") into gBrowserId Although I don't get an error message when I press the button, i...

Bernd, Thank you for the revBrowser demo stack! On launching it (while I had the SmartProperties and revNavigator plugins running), I encountered this error -- >>stack "SmartProperties": execution error at line 110 (Chunk: no target found), char 18 executing at 9:41:53 AM Type Chunk: no target found...

Hi all, I've been very impressed by Livecode in my early stages of prototyping an open source curation app for Twitter. A key challenge I'm facing, however, concerns an intuitive way to bring items from Twitter pages into the app. Ideally, I'd like a to have a Twitter page embedded within a card (us...

Bernd (and all), I've had a big challenge getting the revBrowser demo stack to work (Mac OS 10.6 & Livecode 4.5). Although demo stack launches a web browser to www.google.com, its page contents are not visible. And in all of the following cards, the embedded browser in each card is similarly blank. ...

Hi all,

I'm glad to find LiveCode after using Supercard/Oracle Media Objects years ago.

I'm now living in the Shenandoah Valley, about two hours from DC, and would like to know if there are any Revolution Users Groups or meetups.

Look forward to hearing!
