Hey Chris!
I’ve just switched priorities (see my previous mail to Rick) regarding RegEx
and AppleScript and now you put everything in question again! ;-)
Your AppleScript solved my question and even a lot more (loads the TOC directly
and put the row between the chapters - that Rick’s RegEx forgot)… now I *only*
have to understand HOW! ;-)
Thanks a lot… but now you’re „in“ for some questions ;-)
1.- I suppose that JavaScript „document_readyState“ must be some DOM-function?
(I didn’t even know that is it possible to call JavaScript from AppleScript!)
2.- How did the Handler getSafariText now WHICH text to get from the page? Or
is this magic put in the first *replace*
> replace "(?s)\\A.+Expand all \\| Collapse
> all[[:blank:]]*\\r+(.+(?=\\r{1,}Watch this entire course)).+" using "\\1"
> options {search mode:grep, case sensitive:false, starting at top:true}
?
3.- RegEx remains the priority: I can understand everything that the handlers
do but not a word of the replace’s! :-/ :-)
4.- In your script everything is local: the „main-program“ and the „routines“.
a) Is it possible to put handlers outside the script itself (in order to be
able to call them from various scripts)? and then b) how do you declare the
global returns used in the - now global - handlers? Or is this a bad idea at
all to externalize handlers (due to performance / complexity / whatever)?
Thanks, Chris, I’ve learned again a lot - you’re too good to me!
Until next time,
Vlad
P.S. Actually my priority right now is Joomla! - that’s the reason of my visit
on lynda.com <http://lynda.com/>, the AppleScript-tutorial was only me taking a
pause from Joomla! ;-) - because I'll probably get a job doing a website where
I'll probably better use Joomla!… and right now I don’t know anything at all
about it! :-/ So the RegEx and AppleScript (and a couple of others too like
using LESS on my yoga-website or making a program to scaling chosen images
until they have a certain size - something that scratches one of my itches, I
admit! - etc.) will have to wait, the nights are only so long… :-(
