Jørn,
That may appear to work because the file is either small and/or has
been downloaded into your cache. But you are missing a key concept.
You only want to issue the GetNextText once. The way you have it
structured, you are potentially doing it multiple times. Here's a
suggestion of how to build it (untested):
global gBasketList
global gPosList
global gSpriteList
property mynetID
-- this only executes once
on beginSprite me
set gBasketList = []
set gPosList = []
set gSpriteList = []
fileID = member("hold input").text & ".txt"
URL = "http//www.myweb.com/jmadsen/"
URLComplete = URL&fileID
mynetID = getNetText(URLComplete)
end
-- this exeutes multiple times
on exitFrame
if netDone(mynetID) = FALSE then -- wait on this frame until
getNetText is done
go to the frame
else -- now do your parsing and go
member("fileContent").text = netTextResult(mynetID)
mySpriteString = "[" &member("fileContent").line[1] & "]"
gSpriteList = value(mySpriteString)
myPosString = "[" & member("fileContent").line[2] & "]"
gPosList = value(myPosString)
go to "urlCard"
end if
end
