Re: How to diagnose browser widget JS handlers failing silently?

2018-11-23 Thread Keith Clarke via use-livecode
Thanks for the response, Herman.

In the error state I’m getting, the LC JShandler script parameters are empty 
and so far, I’m having no luck with getting toString(); to stringify javascript 
objects such that LC doesn’t fail silently.

Indeed, your test scripts fail in my situation - so I’m going to have to create 
a simpler test-bed.
Best,
Keith

You can use the params to see what arrives.

Most probably you didn't convert the parameters of the handler
in the JavaScript to arrays or strings.

LiveCode expects strings or arrays as params of javaScriptHandlers.

So "combine" on the LC side and/or ".toString()" on the JS side are
your friends.

Example test:

-- script of the widget (or above it in the message path)
on JS u,v,w -- a javaScriptHandler of widget "browser"
  if u is an array then combine u with ":"
  put u & cr & v & cr & w
end JS

on mouseUp
  do "var x=[1,2,3], y='hello'; " & \
"liveCode.JS(x, y, x.toString())" in widget "browser"
end mouseUp

How to diagnose browser widget JS handlers failing silently?

2018-11-14 Thread Keith Clarke via use-livecode
Folks,
Is there any way to see the raw message that arrive in LC from javascripts in a 
browser widget?

I’m getting silent failures on some JSHandlers and would like to determine 
whether it’s JS failing to send (unlikely as they’re variations on working 
themes) or LC rejecting the inbound message due to syntax, unescaped quotes, 
etc.
Thanks
Keith
