Hi there,
I'm importing text from the web via getnettext to a field, the text comes
already formatted as property lists (or so I thought) it comes like this:
[#property:"avalue", #property:5, #property:"anothervalue"]
[#property:"avalue", #property:5, #property:"anothervalue"]
[#property:"avalue", #property:5, #property:"anothervalue"]
etc...
if I place the content of the field on a list
on startmovie
gData = []
gData = member("dataBin").text
end
the value of gData is a string
if I do value(gData)
gData = "[#property" (only the first bit within quotes)
if I turn gData to a list with textToList() with the itemdelimiter as RETURN
I get a linear list of strings
gData= ["[#property:"avalue", #property:5, #property:"anothervalue"]"
"[#property:"avalue", #property:5, #property:"anothervalue"]"
"[#property:"avalue", #property:5, #property:"anothervalue"]"]
and if I try con convert those to lists with value() it happens as before..
I've tried with searchAndReplace() also but I don't seem to get it to work.
is there an easy way around it??
thank you.
Gonzalo.
