-- NOTES:
-- When the on alertHook handler is called, it should return a value:
-- Return Value Projector Mode Results Authoring Mode
-- -1 shows a stop/continue dialog box halts the
movie (no dialog box)
-- 0 default shows a stop/continue dialog box presents an
error message, halts the movie
-- 1 continues the movie, no dialogs brings up the
script or debug window
-- 2 quits brings up the
script or debug window
----------------------------------------
on alerthook me, tError, tMessage, sType
--------------------------------------
-- sType is a symbol that can have 1 of these 4 values:
-- #alert - causes the handler to be triggered by the alert command.
-- #movie - causes the handler to be triggered by a file not
found error while perforoming a go to movie command.
-- #script - causes the handler to be triggered by a script error.
-- #safeplayer - causes the handler to be triggered by a check
of the safePlayer property.

hi alex,
thanx for your feedback, and for the fake message window miaw. it's
a neat little tool - although I havn't fully understood it yet, need
more time to analyse - disassemble - deconstruct it :-)
btw. I didn't find a way around this specific problem. I thought
catching a script error with the alerthook would prevent my movie to
stop execution, if my alert handler returns true, but that doesn't
seem to be the case. but maybe there is just some tricky part I am
missing.
AFAIK, in the authoring environment an error will, unfortunately,
ALWAYS halt the movie. Here what I found in my "private archives":
alertHook return value:
Return Effect in Director Effect in Projector
-1 Halt the movie, no error dialog Present
Stop/Continue dialog
0 Halt the movie, present error dialog Present
Stop/Continue dialog
1 Halt the movie, present debugger Movie continues
running, no alert
2 Halt the movie, present the script Quit the Projector
cheers,
valentin
