Problem with revBrowserOpen

Post by xclntdesign » Thu Oct 20, 2011 12:07 am

Using Livecode 5, I am trying to create a browser object using revBrowserOpen to display a PDF. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, if it's my computer, if it's Livecode or what.

What is happening is as soon as I put in

Code: Select all

put the windowid of this stack into tWinID
put revBrowserOpen(tWinID,"") into sBrowserID
my mouse starts going crazy, like it's getting repeat commands to load something.

I thought it might be a conflict with something else in my app, so I tried the lesson on opening a PDF and I got the same result. I also downloaded a stack from the forums on how to use Google Maps in Livecode, and it does the same thing (I'm assuming because its using the revOpenBrowser command).

I still have 4.6.4 on another machine, so I'm going to try it on that one later.

Anyone have any ideas on what might be going wrong?

EDIT: I have tried the lesson on opening a PDF in Livecode 4.6.3 and it worked. So that leads me to believe it's either my Vista machine, or Livecode 5.
