A bit OT but there's an interesting discussion here
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14458648 on the merits of WebAssembly
vs JavaScript for in browser applications. As WebAssembly matures it will
be interesting to see what implications (if any) it has for livecode html5
i.e. will it ultimately
What I believe BR was referring to is that we can expose LC handlers to the
local JS context of a browser widget thus enabling liveCode.* calls. What
would be good, was to have functions (synchronous ones for the sake of
complexity) exposed as well so that calling a liveCode.* function from JS

@Mark Waddingham:
I was partially wrong.
There is already more possible than I thought with HTML5 deployment when
using "do as javascript". One can work around missing javascriptHandlers
because there is "the result" available for evaluating in LC Script.
I tried again and found a bug in the HTML5
Thankyou very much.

Remove the parantheses.
LC tries to handle them as containers.
For example (btn "B2" of group "BUTTS") is a container,
e.g. the content of a menu button or any other string you
put into btn "B2" of group "BUTTS". This works:

Anyone asking to talk could say: “I can easily do it in 7 minutes”, “can do it
in 7 but would cover more in 14”, “need 14 minutes, but could rush it in 7”.
Why, when I do this:
putthebackgroundcolorof(grc "h1" ofgroup"JK5")
do I get:

Hi Heather,
Would there be any interest in an explanation on how to put 3D Earth maps into
a LiveCode stack?
It would take more than 7 minutes, but the technique is pretty cool.

This app will not work with future

For 'foreign speakers' a synonym like "useHandler" may be easy to remember.
Would fit into LC Script:

useHandler "drawImage" of with parameter

Yes, I agree. Thanks a lot. ) Roland

Thanks Charles - yep that sounds exactly the problem. I guess I should have
searched the bug database - it might have saved me some unnecessary panic.
Anyway, tsNetReuseConnection false seems to work just fine for now. When I have
some more time I'll delve into the tsNet commands a bit more and

I think this is the same issue as has been reported here that I am
looking into:

At this point in time, issuing "tsNetLibUrlReuseConnection false" is the
best solution, as this will stop tsNet from trying to re-use an existing
