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"]
-------------------------------------------------------------
try this handler
on textToList whichMember
myText = member(whichMember).text
myLineNumber = myText.line.count
myList = []
repeat with i = 1 to myLineNumber
if myText.line[i] <> "" then
myList.add(value(myText.line[i]))
end if
end repeat
put myList
end
