I have a stack of cards, each card of which has the picture of a courtroom as the background. A judge's bench is in the center. The court has seven judges. Each card has fields that contain data about a particular case that one of the seven judges decided. I have a script that automatically creates ...

To Klaus, Thank you for your reply. Yes, my button script failed to put the full file path, so I amended it to read: put "file://c:/users/monty/documents/book/ops/"&tFile&".pdf" into tFile I tried the script both with and without replacement of spaces in the file name with %20. The browser object di...

The LiveCode tutorial shows how to open a PDF in the LC browser by using a button and selecting a PDF file in the OS directory, but I want the a PDF file to open automatically in an LC browser when the user clicks on a control. I am trying to use a revBrowser in its own stack. Here is the script of ...

In my project, it is a photo of 21 elected senators for a US territory. O...

The code of MaxDangerMouse has solved my problem about clicking on a line in a list field and going to a card of the same name as the selected line, but now I have a problem related to clicking on a button or image in a background group on multiple cards in a stack in order to open a different pdf d...

Thanks Simon, MaxDangerMouse, and dunbarx for your responses. I think MaxDangerMouse understood best what I am trying to do. I mistakenly thought that I could only use the linkClicked message to navigate from a list field to a particular card. If that were the case, in the script of the list field I...

The first card will have a scrollable field (let's call it "index field") on which each subsequent card is listed and accessible by clicking on a link in the line that states its name. Righting the scrip...

Hafa Adai (Hello in Chamorro) Neil, Thanks for the link. I was hoping there was an alternative source. It installed successfully. No need for now to contact Oracle. On their website there is no obvious way to request help by email. There is a toll free phone number, but negotiating the voice mail is...

I am unable to download the JDK 7 from the Oracle website. The file is named jdk-7u51-windows-x64-demos.zip. I have tried three different browsers and three different ISPs. I am running Windows 8.1 on a 64-bit computer. I have deleted all cookies. Firefox reports that the webpage is redirecting the ...

I am using LiveCode Community 6.1.3 with Windows 8 OS. At some point, whenever I opened the Property Inspector for any control, the Property Inspector window began opening at the bottom of the monitor. The title bar was just visible. It formerly did not do that. Now, I have to click in the title bar...
