RE: Local files in browser widget

Are you using 9.5? If not maybe a 64 bit build might work???

Subject: Re: Local files in browser widget

I'm making progress but still having trouble with the browser widget on
Android. To date:

1. Chopped up the huge file into multiple smaller files. They have all been
tagged so that links automatically load the correct file when clicked. This
works.

2. The app now copies all the files in its resources folder to the documents
folder. This works.

3. When loading the first file of the set, it works perfectly. When tapping
a link that loads another file in the set, things happen sometimes.

On my Huawei tablet, everything works great. But on my Pixel, after
scrolling two or three screens, everything freezes. Not only does the
browser refuse to scroll (even backwards, where it's already been,) but HTML
links don't respond, and buttons and other controls are inert. The backKey
is also frozen, so the only option is to exit via the Home hardware button
and remove the app from RAM. This is 100% reproducible.

My Pixel is running Android 9 Pie and the Huawei has Android 8 Oreo. The
Huawei also has newer hardware than the Pixel. Is the browser widget
compatible with Android 9? Or is it a hardware problem?

wrapQ()? shellEscape()?
Are these just the way they sound?
wrapQ(x) = quote & x & quote
shellEscape(x) = escape what needs escaping in x

Re: Catalina is a small, rocky, and largely unprepossessing island.

[francois.chaplais via use-livecode]

I suggest trying Go64 
https://www.stclairsoft.com/Go64/
which tests your apps for 64 compatibility. My business LC seems OK, I have two 
versions of indie for HTML and go64 indicates that the app is 64bits except for 
the update module.
Now I do not know what Catalina will do with this. Nonetheless, I think it 
should be no hassle for LiveCode to recompile their update module.
Best regards
François

This should be fixed in LC 9.0.6 RC1, but as Mabel told Frederick "It seems so

Re: Best Temp Pass Autoresponder?

[Rick Harrison via use-livecode]

Hi Alex,

Thanks for getting back to me.

Your suggestion of no password is interesting,
but in my particular case it isn’t the right solution
for me.

In the meantime, I took a step back from the work
that gave me an alternate insight as to how it
needs to work.

The main snag I’m working on now is setting up
the server to send out the email to the user.

This morning I’m looking at the shell commands
and at tsNet SMTP possible solutions.

Thanks,

Rick

Richmond,

is it possible that you´ve enabled one or all options in LC´s 
preferences->updates?

If i remember correctly then Panos mentioned in a post that this might come 
from updater tool.

I think you can ignore them because they are 64bit.

Perhaps the message is only there because maybe there is not certificate 
for LC for Mac.


Just guessing.
