LiveCode Forums

Thank you for sharing your view, Jeff. The only additional potentially valuable observations I can share are: 1. I had the problem before Sonoma, and upgrading did not change it. 2. The Mac standalone looks slower when it processes long texts within fields. The same for screen redraw operations. 3. ...

Crazy. I have started inserting your 2 code lines (I call them "Schütteln vor dem Gebrauch") at the end of my openCard scripts and it looks like it solves/fixes the problem. Still unclear to me what causes such a big difference between Win and Mac standalone behavior, but given that it makes my disp...

Thank you, Klaus I tried playing with lock/unlock screen and the stack backcolor, but without success. The problem occurs when I move to a different card. In the LiveCode environment (and the Windows standalone) it works well, but in the mac standalone it moves correctly to the different card but on...

Hello. I have developed an educational simulation that I distribute creating standalones for Windows and Mac. Since some time, the Mac standalones have a serious problem related to page displays (pages are not correctly/fully refreshed, sometimes only partially, and the correctly refreshed page appe...

... and by the way numToChar(147) stopped me too.
One has to be careful with Apostrophes, but also with different types of Quotation marks. Unless this is kind of "obvious" for most people, users should be at least informed. Thank you for following this up.

For your info I found out that other Text files that I was producing crashed when loading with the HTML5 standalone even after replacing return (numToChar(10)) They started working again after I replaced another character which blocked the loading in the HTML5 standalone: replace numToChar(146) with...

Good idea. I tried it. After the replace the file generated looks again good in a browser, but unfortunately the HTML5 Standalone cannot load it and gets stuck. Really does not seem to appreciate/digest well text including return or <br>. I'll end up replacing my returns with "HTML5StandaloneCompati...

Yes. By replacing "return" with an empty space the HTML5 standalone works (it loads the file). I tried with a file created by a LC stack containing only "line 1 & return & "line 2". If I put the file on the server the HTML5 standalone blocks. To make it work I tested producing the file under Windows...

My currect hypothesis is that the problem might be rooted on how I send the file to the server: put "ftp://" & FTPUSER & ":" & FTPPASS & "@" & "ftp.cluster002....//{details removed}/DelSNAPS/" & ftpzipCreated into tDestination libURLftpUploadFile zipCreatedFull, tDestination, "uploadComplete" These ...

Still looking for the problem. I have now 2 txt files in the same location (both can be easily accessed/read on the Web): 1. https://www.alpha-simulations.com/DelSNAPS/HTML5TestReport.txt 2. https://www.alpha-simulations.com/DelSNAPS/HTML5TestReportDownAndUp.txt The first file blocks the HTML5 stand...

Thank you a lot again, Elanor, particularly for your patience. With your last post and download I was able to realize that: 1. All the scripts you were sending are working correctly now also on my server. 2. The problem was/is with the .txt files I was trying to import text from. They contain someth...

In the last version I inserted also a Get and a Put button.
Again, they work correctly, except in the HTML5 Standalone where they both return empty (in both cases the target field becomes empty).

Yes. Here I copy/pasted the script of the first button: on mouseUp --load url "https://elanorb.on-rev.com/techsupport/putexample/testfile.txt" with message "callBackHandler" load url "https://www.alpha-simulations.com/AAAINSEAD/TestLC/BAIReport.txt" with message "callBackHandler" end mouseUp on call...

... and correct URL of the second text file I am trying to access is:
https://www.alpha-simulations.com/DelSN ... Report.txt

3. The second button tries to call a txt file which is in a different directory (but on the same server): https://www.alpha-simulations.com/DelSNAPS/11201285153BAIReport.txt RESULTS: The stack executes well, both buttons work and copy the text into the field. BUT the HTML Standalone returns "Request...
