Well I guess that's the point. We shouldn't be clearing globals that don'e belong to LC so why on earth is LC even trying to look at system globals that don;t belong to it? Pete Molly's Revenge http://www.mollysrevenge.com On Sat, May 7, 2011 at 7:27 PM, J. Landman Gay

Hello Slava, One of my projects worked pretty well with Russian, but it involved mostly typing in Russian, saving to a file as HTMLText, and later reading in that HTMLText for display in fields. The one place that involved manipulating the strings directly ('exploding' the words to display

Hi Curt! It was good to hear from a colleague. I'd known about your Sona cards, but I forgot (or never knew) that they were done in LiveCode. But I went through the Web site and was quite impressed. The site is well done, too. (I used it in Chrome, and everything looked great.) Good job! Thanks

Jim. Thanks for the response. Apologies - my question should have been more specific - about concepts, techniques and examples of applying arrays to manipulating XML data, rather than tools. Notwithstanding that, it's good to know that Ken's library is the state of the art, as I been

I too am thinking this Message Box problem is somehow related to problems with the Script Editor. When I open a script, I cannot display the variables. When I click on the Variables tab, I get $Apple_PubSub_Socket_Render displaying for a brief moment and then whichever tab was selected
