I'm all for greater internet security. Websockets seems to be the de facto standard. In order to use websockets to exchange data with your PC/Mac running Livecode one needs a WS/WSS stack to implement the protocol you see when you accept a connection in LC. Such work is left as an exercise to the st...

In the name of internet security, websockets are THE allowable client/server method (using ws and wss protocols). (note: this is way different from low-level tcpsockets which are not accessible from Javascript as best I know) Now that I have my app receiving connection requests "ALL" that I need is ...

I discovered that the REAL problem here is that LC supports sockets, NOT web sockets.
I need to use other (simpler) function on my website client to do the connection.

my ignorance

It's perhaps worthwhile to point-out that the data received without specifying "secure socket" looks like this 10.0.1.100:63014: ¸}µVÓ‘BoCÌ.åèQGnB˵^åᵉ†l¯?ã{ âTˇ)[0ŒúaúœÛuÈq±Ior5ÀüìZ˚ˇhs~"JJ¿+¿/¿,¿0éî¿¿úù/5 10.0.1.100:63014: ëÍÍmyhostname.comˇ 10.0.1.100:63014: 10.0.1.100:63014: ∫∫# 3+)∫∫ °ù`âQ!...

I also tried

accept connections on port 443 with message "someoneConnected"
secure socket "443" without verification

and

accept connections on port 443 with message "someoneConnected"
secure socket "443"

neither helped... both failed with the CIPHER_MISMATCH

Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention

I'm running Mac OS X 10_14_6
Livecode Indy 9_5_1 Build 15505

I am developing an livecode app that provides data to my website, on demand. I'm building a socket server, have my SSL certificate from letsencrypt (it works with https from my computer) and I now need to establish a secure socket connection to the incoming wss:// request from the website. livecode ...

I am not expecting a GUI version of the browser, it was the functionality (not the appearance) that I was after. I am looking for a means by which i can programmatically enter data into fields on an arbitrary website as a robotic typist would. The intention here is to streamline processes for which ...

I have a functioning stack that does what I need to do, running fine on LC 9 on Mac OS X with my Indy license. For now, it simply creates a browser widget, opens a website in it and extracts the value of a specific field. on myJSHandler Message answer "myJSHandler:" && Message end myJSHandler create...

Thanks for the suggestions. The intuitive solution actually works in LiveCode (RunRev), it just fails once standalone or web app is built. Solution is export snapshot from rect snapRect of this card to image "Canvas" as JPEG with image "Canvas" visible when executed this effectively updates it to in...

I have spent more time that I'll admit trying to accomplish what appears to be a simple task. Via script I need to copy a rectangle of one image object and paste it into the same-sized rectangle of another image object. Ideally this needs to be done with neither of the images visible. I'm developing...
