Thanks for working on this, Bernd. I'm now going to post the issue on the dev list. Perhaps someone there has an idea.

Be well,

Hi Bernd! Many thanks for thinking and testing. I attach a zip archive (made in Windows) that has a very small and simple stack and an HTML file. Nothing else is required. When run in Windows 7, all buttons work, everything is beautiful. When run on my Mac G5 10.5.8 or MacBook 10.6.8, these problems...

My application (LC 4.6.3) does this: revBrowserSet(sBrowserID, "htmltext", tMyHTML) tMyHTML is a fully-formed Web page that includes this function: function SetFontSize(FSizeStr) { document.body.style.fontSize = FSizeStr; } A button on the same card as the revBrowser instance does this: revBrowserCa...

Short version: revBrowser does not display Unicode characters in Mac OS X (PPC/Tiger and Intel/Snow Leopard). LC 4.6.2 and 4.6.3. Long version: I finished writing and testing my Russian dictionary application in Windows and started testing it in Mac OS X. My first surprise is that revBrowser does no...

Thanks, Mark. This is sad. I don't feel good about telling the users who don't already have QT installed on their Windows machines that they must install it so just for my application. And RR will have to find a different solution for Android. I have read all there is in the Dictionary about recordi...

For recording sound, the online version of the Dictionary says "The record sound command uses QuickTime to record" Yet I found some posts in various forums that claim you don't need to have QT installed. I'd rather not uninstall QT from my Windows machine just to test this. I need to allow the user ...

The replace() function in LC 4.6.1 cannot be used to replace a string with another string in a Unicode field. Here is a workaround: on mouseUp --this handler amounts to a home-made custom replace() function for UTF-16 fields; --it searches field InputField for word 1 from field WordToFind --and repl...

Any user of LC 4.6.1 who needs to use "the clickText" in a double-byte (Unicode) field will discover that it just doesn't work. I am posting here a workaround that resulted from a day-long discussions among jacque, Bernd, Mark S., Malte, Richmond and myself. on mouseUp --this is attached to field "T...

I use an Android tablet with 2.3.3. Almost all the apps I have display an app-specific menu when I press the system Menu button. Can such a menu be constructed for an LC app?

I am posting the solution: my script had a bug, pointed out by Dave C. Thanks, Dave! To turn the UTF-16 text in the field into a UTF-8 string for use as a search target, I should have used uniDecode(myText, "UTF8"). Now this code works perfectly: a Russian word is found in my SQLite UTF-8 database: ...

I am building a front end to a Russian-English dictionary database (SQLite). The data is in Unicode. I've overcome several hurdles of Unicode in LC and have now gotten to the point where my scripts are ready to retrieve the data: put "SELECT RecNum FROM RDTKeys WHERE (RDTKey = :1)" into locSQLString...

Thanks to the good folks in the LC community, I'm posting a solution that works for me, plus an idea for further work. Most of this discussion took place on the use-livecode list. Context: we have an instance of revBrowser in the card, and we can control the contents of the Web page that it is showi...

In the entry for browserClick, the LC Dictionary (4.6.1) says this: The browserClick message is sent to the current card of a stack containing a browser object when the mouse is clicked in the browser. The instanceId is the integer identifier of the browser object The elementId is the id of the html...

Likewise here!!!

This is not relevant to the discussion, but please be careful when you quote other posters. Poster "sp27" would never have said "...sorta kinda makes out like you can..." It's just not his style
