Have you considered asking the user for their email address?

I can think of two possible causes, though there may be others:
1. Could there be some other non-printable character on either side of that token instead of a space?
2. Is that variable name also declared elsewhere in the script as local or a handler argument?

Here is what the HOSTM people told me: (by the way they are extremely responsive when asked a question) Glad to hear it, but not surprised. They seem like good folks there, very earnest about what they do. "Both JPG and PDF are binary files. Although, whether or not an array contains binary data sh...

If you're able to get .htaccess working on a shared host but not a VPS, that suggest the Apache setup on the VPS may not have the required modules enabled for that, as would be customary for a shared host. Have you had a chance to check is mod_rewrite and mod_action have been enabled on the VPS with...

The Dictionary entry is a bit sparse, but this background on UUID may be helpful:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universall ... identifier

Thanks, Simon. I am using the: put "data=" & URLEncode(base64Encode(array,"6.7"))) into tdata form of encode. the 6.7 refers to the method used pre 7.0. Apparently 7.0 and later can accommodate both methods. If that code runs without error it may be a case of incomplete error checking, as base64 is...

Maybe the UUID function would help?

I only want to verify the address of the account created on the device.

There may be another way to solve the problem. Why do you want to verify the email address?

Are you calling "delete stack <mainstackfile>" for each version of the stack file after you're done obtaining info from it? No, I don't. Because it's not really loaded by livecode. 8) When you see LiveCode telling you a stack is loaded, it may not be lying. :) Whenever any stack file is queried, th...

If using "do" makes a difference that may be a bug, since the evaluated expression should ideally be the same whether dynamically assembled with "do" or inline.

Are you calling "delete stack <mainstackfile>" for each version of the stack file after you're done obtaining info from it?

In the end I discovered that by creating a new mainstack in version 7.0.5 and then copying all the cards into this new stack from the old tedious one the speed improvement was realised. Hopefully, anyone else experiencing the same will find the above works. Glad to hear you've found a workaround, b...

Under what circumstances?

Reviewing the earlier comments here about "lock screen", it may be helpful to note that it's not necessary to "open" or "go" to a stack to retrieve all data from it. Scripts and all other properties can be obtained by referencing the stack file, without explicitly opening it, e.g.: get the rect of s...

I've been working on a diff tool that works on native stack files, and I found I could get the info I need from two versions of a stack file within the same LiveCode session if I use "delete stack <mainstackname>" after I'm done with each. On the latter it's important to note that "delete stack" doe...

Is LC going to stop supporting QT or will it provide an alternative way to play external videos and audios? LiveCode didn't choose to deprecate QT. If they could have continued to enjoy using the QuickTime code they'd worked so hard to develop they certainly would have. QT is Apple's property, and ...
