A mini-stack to automatically download most recent main stack?
Since its release, I use the web pluggin for most of my apps but there are so many inconsistencies that I'm thinking of writing a small client app that, once launched, goes out to where I store the real app/stack and downloads it and runs it (or tells the little stack all of the parameters that need changing to make it like the big stack) all automatically. Sort of like the weblet does but without the browser. A small app will sit on every machine that I want the "real" app to run on. This way I can make tweaks to the real app without having to upgrade everyone's client app. I'm sure it's not tough but I am but a novice compared to most on this list J Anyone ever do something like this and if so, can you provide ideas as to how you went about it?

RE: how to totally make Kevin's day
Apple's decision may be good news for Runrev but I hope their change of heart does not distract Runrev from cleaning up RevWeb and releasing it...please?

Some web developers still write IE-specific pages that no other operating systems can view, and a good chunk of the Windows population can't see those either. About all you can do is rewrite the web page so it doesn't use IE-specific elements.

Thanks George. That's sounds right. The September announcement you're talking about is the reason I updated my subscription. I also just registered for the webinar tomorrow for OnRev to get more familiar. I did not know about the plugin...that could be challenging but workable. My concern about OnRev is response time and cost. Go Daddy is the best I've seen and priced well. Thanks again George Jim... From: George C Brackett To: How to use Revolution Sent: Wednesday, April 22, 2009 8:51:01 AM Subject: Re: Runrev on the web You may be thinking about the Rev plugin, to be introduced in September at the Edinburgh conference. This is a web plugin (like Quicktime or Flash) that permits embedding actual Rev stacks in web pages. The current alpha version is already quite capable. To be clear, a user must download and install the free plugin to see the output from the stack, but then the experience they get from the stack is largely indistinguishable from what they would see from running the stack or its standalone on the desktop. (I'm sure there will be a few limitations, but I have run a number of my own little educational stacks under the plugin with no problems at all.)

The rev > dictionary mentions the resetAll command for dev only. I know the docs say to use resetAll for development testing only, but I have to confess that I put it in my apps and use it whenever there is a connection problem as I am then starting again from a clean slate. The only downside that I can see is that all the connection settings get reset too, so you need to reset the httpHeaders etc. I think you have to reset any status or logging messages too. If you have multiple simultaneous connections, then it would really be a bad thing as it would close all connections not just the one giving the problems, but I prefer to get one thing at a time.

Tags in dialog boxes and the command: resetAll
I have two questions that I thought i would ask together. If I should send two emails let me know :) The first question: When I use tags in the answer box to bold the text like: ...answer "Hello World... it works great. However, when I add multiple lines: ...answer "Hello World & cr & cr & "I'm Back"... the cr's do not get recognized in the code. It's as if they were not entered. When I take out the tags, everything is good. Any help would be great! Second question: I'm doing a lot of URL ftp stuff and I read that the resetAll command helps during develpoment. I noticed that if I don't use the resetAll command during develpoment, rev will "go away" for awhile then come back. Should I leave the resetAll command in the standalone?

It's a matter of operator priorities and
parenthesizing to get the desired behaviour. What you
wrote is the equivalent of:
##
put "testing.mp3" into tempvar
put (URL "binfile:C:/Documents and Settings/Jim
Schaubeck/Desktop/test1/") & tempvar into URL
"binfile:C:/Documents and Settings/Jim
Schaubeck/Desktop/test2/testing.mp3"
##
And what you want is:
##
put "testing.mp3" into tempvar
put URL ("binfile:C:/Documents and Settings/Jim
Schaubeck/Desktop/test1/" & tempvar) into URL
"binfile:C:/Documents and Settings/Jim
Schaubeck/Desktop/test2/testing.mp3"
##
Computers are very good at doing what we tell them to

Spell Check script
Hi folks, I would like to add a "spellcheck" option to the text fields that the user fills out. Probably about 50 words are entered in each field with about 10 fields. I've searched through past emails and runrev posts and found OSX possibilities but nothing for Windows. If I have to, I have the words from ubuntu's built-in dictionary (93,000 words) that I could use for my own spellcheck script but I would only do a matching type of script and not recommend words like other (and better) spellcheckers do. I'm wondering if anyone out there knows of a runrev spell check script that works for windows.

RE: Invisible volume slider on audio player
Thanks for the response Chipp, I have QT installed and I just upgraded to 7.5.5 to make sure. I still have the problem (if it helps, these are all wav files). However, I may not be *using* QT in runrev (I don't really know how I would find out) but I do have it and launched it successfully. This raises another question. How would it work on Linux systems without QT? I'm writing the runrev app with XP but I will deploy it on a ALIX 3c3 card with imedia Linux. I can live without the volume adjust as I can script that but I can't live without the audio players. They allow me to play more than one sound simultaneously.

Using a visible audio player, I do not see the volume adjust slider when I click the little speaker icon on the player to adjust he volume. The player works fine and in fact the volume is getting adjusted as I drag the mouse up and down. But, the little "indicator ball" does not appear.

Mark, Sorry for the REALLY long delay I appreciate your response. I tried the Buffer setting and that setting actually made things even tougher. The player had no response after setting buffer to true. I do have QuickTime loaded on my PC (and working). I still have the same issue where the players' volume bar does not show up on the card. It will, however, show up on the desk top if I move the player far enough to the left side of the current card/stack. So the volume bar is actually there all of the time...just "under" the stack. Just to make sure, I moved the player "To the Front" with no luck.

If your approach is many times faster, that could be the trick

John, Thank you for the response If I can figure out how to do this I will try it next. I've tried Mysql (via Navicat) and the sort command work quite quickly.

After selecting the particular contents, the spreadsheet will now only show the lines that have that same data in the filtered column.

Your script works. The only thing that have to do which seems a little strange
is emptying the image before writing a newer one to it. For some reason the
new one can not overwrite the old one...must be emptied first

Loading images to MySQL using Read/Write
The Read/Write and URL commands are driving me sort of nuts. I am trying to store image files into MySQL fields without using the imageData (which gets very large but I got it working). Instead, I thought of reading the original image file, store that read into the MySQL field. When I retrieve it, I would write it to a temp file x and set the empty image to the filename of x. Sounded simple enough (too simple I guess). Here's the test stack I was trying prove the theory with: on mouseup ask file "Select an Image file" put it into tempvar -- open file tempvar for binary read read from file tempvar until end put it into imagevar -- I'm hoping imagevar this would have the data I need to store in MySQL close file tempvar -- open file "tempImageFile" for write write imagevar to file "tempImageFile" at 1 close file "tempImageFile" -- set the fileName of image "image1" to "tempImageFile" end mouseUp I know I could have set the fileName of the image to the origianl ask file result but I wanted to do the read/Write to see if I could duplicate the file contents and load it into another file and use the new file as the fileName. That would prove out the theory (I think). Does the Read/Write commands do a 1 for 1 read/write? If read/write is not the way to go, any other ideas on how to store Jpegs to a MySQL field?

I had to work out some firewall issues and VPN stuff causing error msgs but got past that (I work for Cisco and there's no shortage of folks around to help with that!) I saw Trevor's stack but I stuck with standard SQL code in RunRev. So far, I'm just using SELECT/WHERE, ADD, DELETE, UPDATE/SET.

Has anyone used the recipes project with MySQL? I use MySQL 5 on OSX 10.4 as the MySQL Server with Navicat (seems to work fine).

Multi-user stack question
Folks, I'm writing a stack to build a database of customers for our Sales and System Engineering team. Will be much less than a couple thousand cards with about 100 or so various unique fields and pulldown buttons per card. I can do it easily with RunRev but I want the database or stack to be accessed and modifiable from multiple folks on a private network. I'm familiar with RunRev (prev Hypercard/Supercard stuff) but I am not familiar with using RunRev w/databases. Do I need to use a database (mysql,filemaker, etc) for this? Is the multi-user requirement the only reason for the separate database or can I use just RunRev AND multi-user?
