Ideally, in a near future, lessons and dictionary would be available as interactive stacks or downloadable apps. Until then, here is a LiveCode 4.6 PDF dictionary, uploaded by et_phone_home: http://www.mediafire.com/file/eteillibdzzcbxc/Livecode++Dictionnaire.pdf I found this pdf dictionary in a forum thread: http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?t=8430 and Ken Ray's 2.1.2 online Rev documentation for Rev 2.1.2 in PDF, RTF and TXT format: http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/livecode/downloads.htm By the way, RunRev 2.8.1 dictionary, printed in color coded paper, still have a place in my work desk, along Dan Shafer's first RunRev book.

Re: sync LC applications
@paolo, I don't do push on android, so I can't tell you much about it. I'm doing it on ios. John Craig wrote a stack a long time ago that I have tweaked for the purpose. Somewhere I also have a push server started, but it isn't ready for the rest of the universe (like most things that I work on).

Re: Printing A Browser
I also use HTML to create and display complex tables with LC (in iOS) and have been looking for a way to (a) save the tables as PDF files and then print the tables (as a PDF). There is a library for creating PDF files from HTML created by Brent Nycum called BNHtmlPdfKit: https://github.com/brentnycum/BNHtmlPdfKit BNHtmlPdfKit can easily create a PDF file from an HTML string or URL. It is also possible to specify different page sizes, and margin sizes. This might make a great extension for LC.

Printing A Browser
Greetings! I have a some rather involved tables to create and print. The best way I can think to do this is in html as a browser will scale columns and rows for me. Now, I know you can’t print a browser widget (which is really too bad), but you can print a browser object. However, I can’t find any information about printing properties (like printMargins or orientation for example). Am I missing something? Or is printing from a LiveCode browser a “you get what you get (and just be happy you got what you got)” kind of thing?

Wouldn’t it be nice if the lessons and any other coding examples posted by the Mothership contained a prominent field stating the current viability of that lesson. Also the lesson’s compatibility/incompatibility with various LC versions. Perhaps several fields, something akin to the dictionary’s Edition, Introduced, OS & Platforms fields. And if a technique has been deprecated a link to the current alternative technique, if any. Ditto for extensions & widgets.

Re: New Books/Dictionary
Are you just talking about the lack of full text search? The dictionary seems to work ok on my iPad (served from my server). CSS and HTML need more tweaks to work well on a phone sized device.

Re: ArrayToJSON in LCServer ?
ArrayToJSON is from the mergJSON external... so in order for you to use it, you would need to be able to access the external through your server installation. I don't know if that is possible... My recommendation would be to use a library such as fastJSON. I use fastJSON with LC Server all the time without issue. - --- Greg (pink) Miller mad, pink and dangerous to code -- Sent from: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Revolution-User-f278306.html ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
