Browser Widget and Google Maps Api on Win 10

[Ralph DiMola via use-livecode]

When in the IDE and testing using the browser widget the line below does not
ever complete. The call back to "startMapInit" is never called.

This works on Win 10 desktop in Chrome and LC deployed Android app using the
same browser widget as in the IDE. I will test on iOS. 

 

The real question is how to see JavaScript errors in the Browser Widget?

Facebook in Browser Widget

[Ralph DiMola via use-livecode]

LC 9.6.11 pro

Win 10

 

When I open Facebook url "https://www.facebook.com/someAccount; in the
browser widget in an Android app I briefly see the Facebook page and then
get the error net:ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME. The Error url displayed is
"fc://profile..." this used to work.

This happens if the FB app is or is not installed. What I would like is if
the app is not installed then open in the browser widget or if FB is
installed then open in the FB app. I have not tested iOS yet.

Thanks in advance

Re: Browser widget in Windows has trouble playing videos in websites

[Peter Bogdanoff via use-livecode]

Tom,

I’m finding the issue is more complex, and I’m still trying to get to the 
bottom of it.

Daily Motion, Vimeo, and YouTube pages all work on the Mac LC browser plugin.

Daily Motion, Vimeo, and some YouTube pages don’t in Windows. However, most of 
the gazillion YouTube videos work very well, just not all of the ones we made 
for our channel. Most of our videos were compressed on a Mac, but for all but a 
couple YouTube shows an error in the video window: 

"Your browser can’t play this video. Learn more."

'Learn more' shows a page that only says the browser is compatible.


We made two on a Windows machine, one works, but the other doesn’t—both using 
the work flow, same compressor/wrapper ( I don’t know which).

I’ve tried recompressing on the Mac a sample video using everything available, 
including Ogg. None work in Windows from our YouTube channel.

I’m going to retry compressing within a Windows app. See if it makes a 
difference. 

It seems to me the issue is more than lack of support for h264.

Peter

Re: Browser widget in Windows has trouble playing videos in websites

[Tom Glod via use-livecode]

Hey Peter, this surely has to do with videos that are compressed using
h264. that build of CEF does not support this codec.
I am not sure if the updated browser in the upcoming windows version will
support h264.
I am surprised to find out that the apple version of the browser has
support for h264, i assumed the problem was cross platform.
On youtube LIVE videos are h264, and videos that have been on the site a
while get a different codec.

Browser widget in Windows has trouble playing videos in websites

[Peter Bogdanoff via use-livecode]

I submitted Bug 24479 today with a sample stack.

Youtube, Vimeo, Daily Motion all have unreliable playing of their videos in LC 
browser widget in Windows 10, LC 10.0.0 dp7, both in the IDE and standalone.

Vimeo and Daily Motion won’t play videos on their sites. They show an error 
message in the video player.

YouTube does play, but there are some videos in my channel, and others here and 
there that show a YouTube error when loading.

No problem with the Mac browser widget.

Finally I often get the following error:

The javascript in question executes with the desired result - but the error
is thrown by Livecode presenting a dialogue. I can use the "Supress Errors"

Re: Preventing Browser Navigation

[David Bovill via use-livecode]

So you should be able to prevent navigation on iOS using:

on browserLoadRequest pURL, pType
  -- iOS only
end browserLoadRequest

But that does not work with the browser widget. Also I don;t seem to be
able to respond to browser html / javascript events that seek to open a url
in a new browser tab. This means that displaying web sites that use this
functionality is not possible. Or is there a way? The following do not
respond to links in the html that open such tabs - in fact they don't seem
to be triggered:
on browserFrameDocumentLoadFailed pUrl, pError
   breakpoint
end browserFrameDocumentLoadFailed

on browserFrameDocumentLoadBegin pUrl
   breakpoint
end browserFrameDocumentLoadBegin

on browserDocumentLoadFailed pUrl, pError
   breakpoint
end browserDocumentLoadFailed

on browserUnhandledLoadRequest pUrl
   breakpoint
end browserUnhandledLoadRequest

These work, but are not useful for the purpose of blocking a load, or
responding to requests for open in a new tab events:

on browserNavigateBegin sUrl
   breakpoint
end browserNavigateBegin

on browserDocumentLoadBegin pUrl
  breakpoint
end browserDocumentLoadBegin

Preventing Browser Navigation

Is there a way to prevent the desktop browser widget from navigating to a
new url by blocking a message? I seem to remember it was possible but
intercepting: browserNavigateBegin, browserDocumentLoadBegin messages do
not prevent the navigation. I wish to process a url dropped on the page
rather than navigate to it.

Browser widget error

[Peter Bogdanoff via use-livecode]

Hi,

I’m getting an error from the browser widget. I only see it when I’m running in 
Sonoma on an M2 Mac mini. All earlier Macs (Ventura and earlier) don’t trigger 
it. This is part of a routine that sets JS handlers to control the playing of a 
YouTube movie in the browser.

I created a small sample stack to file a bug report, but actually got that one 
to work with no errors. The source stack is still showing errors, and I can’t 
seem yet to track down what’s causing it. The calls still function, but pop up 
the error box.

The errorDialog message shows this. I guess that some explanation of 
specifically what the error is in "error evaluating javascript” would be 
helpful:
863,0,0,runtime

864,0,0,error evaluating javascript

865,0,0,browser.lcb

866,0,0,1007

897,0,0,1

865,0,0,browser.lcb

866,0,0,999

897,0,0,1

This is in LC 10.0.0-dp-6, the version of LC that seems to function best with 
this Sonoma M2 Mac. I have found that this computer is so fast, errors appear 
such that I had  to do some adjusting of the timing of events.

Linux and the search for a controllable Web Browser

[Derek Bump via use-livecode]

Good Day,

I've been wrestling with the Browser widget on Linux long enough now that I've 
largely given up on using it for anything destined for a production 
environment. However, that has not reduced my need for a browser which I can 
control in my specific use-case: open a streaming video url, make it full 
screen, autoplay, wait for navigational input from the user (arrow keys, DEL 
key, etc), and close when requested.

I did attempt to build a controllable browser using Neutralinojs, which showed 
potential. With it's configuration options, having a borderless, floating 
browser window appear at exact coordinates is very do-able. Unfortunately for 
me, the cross-origin nature of using an iframe is preventing JavaScript from 
forcing playback without a physical "click" from the user. Setting the URL of 
the Neutralinojs "browser" directly (not using iframe) resolves the 
cross-origin restriction, but it still required click for playback. Plus, 
setting the URL directly wipes out any JavaScript written, so inter-process 
communications disappears immediately. So that solution isn't viable.

I'm thinking of attempting the same concept using Electron, but I'm betting 
100% the experience will be the same. Many in the past have abused the Autoplay 
feature, so its largely locked down in commercial browsers at this point. I'm 
pretty sure I'd have to compile a custom browser from source, which I have 
never done before. Nor am I interested in going down that rabbit hole (yet).

So I wanted to reach out to see if anyone has stumbled upon a solution for 
showing web pages on Linux in such a way that you can still maintain control 
over the browser through LiveCode?

With regards to my use-case, I've (temporarily) opted to launch Firefox using 
"open process" (non blocking) in Kiosk mode. This is nearly producing what I 
need, except regaining control involves terminating Firefox when my user 
presses a "Universal Home" button on their remote control. Not ideal, but it 
works.

What's frustrating is that there's a Browser Widget sitting in my toolbar which 
seems to work well on Windows and Mac. However, even if the widget was 
compatible (or I found a modern distro where it works), it still wouldn't solve 
my problem: LC's browser implementation has some of it's multimedia framework 
support turned off, so HLS is out the window. This would need to be added in by 
LiveCode Ltd., most likely.

Am I stuck?

I appreciate the help and look forward to feedback.

Thank you,
Derek Bump

I'm guessing you are using 10-dp-5 :)

The issues here are regressions caused by the switch to WKWebView in 10

The missing progressChanged messages issue is 
https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24271


The missing other messages issue is

The latter is related to server vs local redirects in the web page.

Both should be fixed in the upcoming 10-dp-6.

Browser widget: "Navigation request cancelled"

[Ben Rubinstein via use-livecode]

Trying to use the browser widget to access an internal site, I'm having a lot 
of trouble.


If I send it (by setting the URL property of the widget) to the root of the 
hostname, it loads the page succesfully, although the widget gets a 
browserDocumentLoadFailed message "navigation request cancelled".


If I set the URL property to some pages within the site, they load succesfully 
without that message.


If I set the URL property to some other pages, they do not load, and that 
message is received.


It's completely consistent which URLs work, and which don't.

If I send the widget to a URL which works, I can navigate anywhere within the 
site without problems, including to the URLs which don't work using set.


I haven't managed to pin down what distinguishes the working URLs from 
non-working. All the non-working ones I've found involve query parameters; but 
some of the working ones do also.


My question is: how can I debug this issue? Are there any ways to get insight 
into the loading process?


I am catching and reporting these messages:
browserDocumentLoadFailed
browserDocumentLoadComplete
browserNavigateFailed
browserNavigateComplete
browserUnhandledLoadRequest

... but the only ones that trigger are either browserDocumentLoadFailed or 
browserUnhandledLoadRequest, or browserDocumentLoadComplete - always with the 
parameter being the requested URL. I'm guessing, though I might be wrong, that 
the issue is actually with one of the elements being requested by the 
document, but this is never in the parameter.


Additionally, browserProgressChanged never seems to be sent.

Is it possible to get any more detail about what's going on?

TIA,

Ben

Exporting a snapshot of a PLAYER fails under Windows (see

Browser widget may be related? If it is reproducible in a test stack, 
you shoud file a bug report with a test stack to demonstrate the error.


I seem to recall other export snapshot bugs. There is one related to 
multiple displays (https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22852) 
and there may be others.

Browser widget "Navigation request cancelled"/"NSURLErrorDomain error -999"

[Ben Rubinstein via use-livecode]

I'm finding intermittent issues with the browser widget failing to load an 
internal site.


In 9.6.8, the error (in browserDocumentLoadFailed) will usually be 
"NSURLErrorDomain error -999". In 10.0.0 (dp 5) it will be "Navigation request 
cancelled".


Alternatively, sometimes  (at least in 9.6.8) it will be
	"The resource could not be loaded because the App Transport Security policy 
requires the use of a secure connection."


... which is fair enough, because it's an "http:" URL rather than an "https:" 
(this is an application on our intranet); but the whacky part is that 
_sometimes_ I can load the site, and once loaded I can navigate it fine.


In particular I have more success in loading it in 10.0.0 (dp 5) - although 
sometimes the site will load, _and_ the browserDocumentLoadFailed message will 
be sent! I also sometimes find I can load it if I set the URL in the property 
inspector for the browser widget, where setting it in script fails.


Can anyone shed light? I'd prefer to get this working in 9.6.8, because due to 
https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24268 I tend to lose work in 
10.0.0 (dp 5) - but if I could get it consistently working in either that 
would be a step forward!

Ben

Re: more then 1 browser widget in a web standalone?

The web browser widget is implemented as an IFrame - this comes with it 
a fair amount of security restrictions unless the website being embedded 
has appropriate cross-origin settings (or comes from the same host as 
the surrounding page).


In this case, I suspect the website is just refusing to be embedded - 
indeed if you go to:


   
https://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_iframe_height_width


Then change the src to the website above then it won't work there 
either.

in a Web standalone?
Currently i only get 1 browser widget display in the Web standalone.

Re: "get in widget"?? How can I get a value out of a browser widget into LiveCode?

[Ben Rubinstein via use-livecode]

I've found a solution. For the benefit of others (and myself, because I'll 
have forgotten this next time I want it), this can be done using "the 
javascriptHandlers".


So you can set up a handler to be called from the browser:
set the javascriptHandlers of widget "Browser" to "myJSHandler"

... and then have javascript pass the expression to that handler:

do "liveCode.myJSHandler(document.title);" in widget "browser"



On 17/04/2023 16:17, Ben Rubinstein via use-livecode wrote:

Thanks Klaus, I tried both of those!

So for example I can execute
 do "alert(document.title)" in widget "browser"

and see the expected string in an alert box. But
 do "document.title" in widget "browser"; put it

or
 do "document.title" in widget "browser"; put the result

just put empty.

Any other ideas? I don't know whether I need to do something different in the 
livecode end (probably) or in the javascript end.


TIA,

Re: Browser Widget navigation and urls

[Ben Rubinstein via use-livecode]

The website might be actually a JavaScript 'app' that's displaying different 
information rather than navigating to different pages, which is now a very 
popular web dev technique.


A responsible implementation of this approach includes a non-JS fallback, for 
accessibility purposes; and makes the app manipulate the browser's URL display 
so that if someone bookmarks the page, or sends a link, the link will work to 
display the same 'page' as the user intended.


You might be able to inject something to access the 'window.location' object, 
which I think is what is manipulated in this case.

Re: Equivalent of a field's "on linkclicked" message in a browser widget?

[Klaus major-k via use-livecode]

Hi all,

with some help form the LC forum, I finally had kind of success with this:

on browserNavigateBegin pUrl
   lock screen
   if pURL ends with ".pdf" then
 libURLDownloadToFile pUrl, (specialfolderpath("desktop") & "/test666.pdf")
 go back in widget 1
   end if
  unlock screen
end browserNavigateBegin
-
With the line GO BACK IN WIDGET 1 the clicked url will NOT get displayed!
Seems the only way to (fake) CANCEL the navigation.

it. When I was trying it, breakpoints didn't even trigger so I assumed the 
messages weren't being sent. Did you put the handlers in the widget script? 
When I tested we didn't have widgets yet.


If that doesn't work I'm not sure what will. Maybe you'd need some javascript?

You could try "browserDocumentLoadBegin" or "browserNavigateBegin" which 
would give you the URL that was clicked. But most browsers now download or 
display the PDF automatically when a PDF link is clicked. Firefox opens the 
PDF in a new window, and I think Safari downloads it. Not sure about Windows.

Windows, too, if the Acrobat Plug-in is installed on the target machine.
Only Android cannot display in a browser so far, too bad.
If this is for mobile, the URL might be enough information. BTW, I tried to 
use these messages a very long time ago and they were not sent, but 
hopefully that's been fixed by now.

Fingers crossed, will try and tell. :-)
Thank you!

  if pURL ends with ".pdf" then
 libURLDownloadToFile pUrl, (specialfolderpath("dektop") & "/test666.pdf")
  else
 pass browserNavigateBegin
  end if
end browserNavigateBegin

on browserDocumentLoadBegin pUrl
  if pURL ends with ".pdf" then
 libURLDownloadToFile pUrl, (specialfolderpath("dektop") & "/test666.pdf")
  else
 pass browserDocumentLoadBegin
  end if
end browserDocumentLoadBegin

No file on the desktop, the browser simply ignores the script!?

So any hint on how to download a clicked linke in the browser widget still 
welcome!

Re: Browser widget doesn't display PDF

Hello Panos,

thanks for reminding me of bug 22534. 
I should have remember it. That bug report is based on a support request i 
filed. ;)

Thanks, i was not aware of that report. Btw. you are commenting in that report, 
that you could replicate the problem with a 316 page PDF, but not with a 5 page 
pdf.
In my case the PDF has only 1 page.

> https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22534

I knew that one already, because its a bug report based on a support request i 
filed. ;) 
To be honest, i almost forget about it. 
Rereading my comments i remembered that one hast remove the plugins and logoff 
and login again to get it working with the widget.

> files, until this bug is fixed.

Btw. this might be a workaround for me if i need also the Acrobat plugins, but 
according to the dictionary the PDF widget is only available with a Pro license.
So this is not a workaround for everyone.


Anyway, thanks again.

Matthias

Browser widget doesn't display PDF

[matthias rebbe via use-livecode]

Hello,

i am currently having problems that a browser widget doesn't display a pdf, 
regardless if remote or local.

I just see a white blank page. Sometime an error message comes up telling me 
that "PDFViewer could not find a compatible version of Adobe Acrobat or Adobe 
Reader for displaying this PDF file."
Something like that. I get a German error message.

The interesting part is, that Safari does not have a problem with displaying 
the PDF and the folders ~/library/internet-plugins and 
/library/Internet-plugins both contain the Acrobat plugins.

Tried here with LC 9.6.9RC2 and 10DP4 on Ventura 13.0.1.

Does anyone has an idea what might be wrong?

Regards,
Matthias

Re: How to use addEventListener for browser window resizing in web deployment?

Wow, thanks Alex! That’s brilliant and exactly what I need!
I must have missed (or forgotten) that session at the conference - I’ll try to 
find it among the recordings to see if it helps explaining the various bits a 
little. In any case I’ll experiment with the code and see what I can get to 
work.

How to use addEventListener for browser window resizing in web deployment?

[Andreas Bergendal via use-livecode]

Hi all,

So I’ve been experimenting with web deployment with LC 10 dp 4. Now I would 
like my stack to be able to react to resizeStack events when the browser window 
is resized by the user. Or to adapt to e.g. a mobile browser screen size.

For this, if I understand correctly, some javascript needs to be used. I’ve 
tried to piece together how to do that from these sources:
https://livecode.com/using-the-new-web-features-in-livecode-10-dp-1/

and Ali Lloyd’s cool WordLC app:
https://alilloyd.livecodehosting.com/wordlc/wordlc.html

where he uses window.addEventListener(”resize” […] etc in the html file to 
catch browser window resizing for the stack to react on. However, as I can’t 
see his LC script side of it, I fail to figure out the proper adaptation to my 
needs:

I want my stack to get, from javascript, the impulse that the browser window 
has changed its width/height and what the new width/height is, in order to 
trigger a normal resizeStack handler to deal with that.

Ideally, the javascript part of this should be included by LC in the standalone 
build, and I hope that’s what they plan at least when LC10 stable ships (seems 
logical), but in the meantime - can someone please help get the code right?

/Andreas

Re: Browser Widget and Images

[Rick Harrison via use-livecode]

Thanks!

I had forgotten about "import as control" and about
set the imagedata of image “my image”.

set the imagedata doesn’t fit to the image’s object size though.
I would probably have to resize the image beforehand.

I also came across:

put URL "binfile:///ExportedImageFile.png" into image  “my image”

The above does fit the image size nicely and I can paint on it etc.

Thanks for all of your help!

Rick

Re: Windows EXE with browser about 160 MB?

[matthias rebbe via use-livecode]

I would say, this is because Microsoft did not embed CEF into Windows. 

So if you customers are asking why, tell them "because they are using Windows" 
and if they want to use a smaller download file they should use macOS. ;) 

I for myself would not have a problem with a download size of 170MB for a 
program i want to use. Compared to Adobe, MS Office and other programs, 170MB 
are not worth moaning about 

But that's my opinion.

what Jim said! :-)

Thisw way the image becomes part of the stack as if "imported as control" 
and you can paint on it or whatever, which is not possible with referenced 
images, be they local or online.

Rick,
set the imagedata of img "myImage" to the imagedata of img "myImage"

Will replace the referenced image with the actual content of that image.
In other words the image will now be local and you can then manipulate its data.
No need for snapshots. Although they work too!

Re: Browser Widget and Images

[Rick Harrison via use-livecode]

Hi Klaus,

Thanks for answering.

So accessing the URL of the image directly in the image object
puts the image there, which is a good first step.

How is it stored however?  

If one looks at the image source it still shows the URL. 
 
I find I’m unable to paint on top of the image, probably 
because that would require my being able to modify the
online URL which isn’t possible for the obvious reason.

I probably need to make a local copy of the image to
be able to work on it.  Export image? Copy it to
the clipboard and paste it elsewhere?

Suggestions?

Rick

why not just set the FILENAME of the image object to the file, either local or 
online?
If the image is very big, you could group that single image object and add the 
groups scrollbars.
Or just scale the image...

Browser Widget and Images

[Rick Harrison via use-livecode]

I have a large free public domain image displaying nicely in my LC Browser 
Widget.

I want to bring the image directly into a LiveCode image object to be able to 
play around with it.

What’s the best way to do that?

While I was looking around in the dictionary for possibilities, I came
across some older revBrowser commands.  Do they work with with
the new browser widget or are the two completely different animals?

Thanks,

Rick

Windows EXE with browser about 160 MB?

[Klaus major-k via use-livecode]

Hi all,

I just created a Windows EXE from my stack and was shocked to see
that the resulting folder is 150 MB (32 bit) resp. 170 MB (64 bit)!?

I thought the Windows version of the browser widget would also "hook"
somehow into the system web engine like the Mac version does, but 
obviously I was wrong... :-/

How can we make a good case for this to our customers? 8-) 
I just want to display PDF files, not the whole internet.

Too bad LC does not sell the PDF widget separately...

Re: Browser Widget Issues

[Tom Glod via use-livecode]

Hi Rick,

document.getElementById("Butto Name").click();

that should work ...but yes this solution assumes you know the name of the
button.

I can't say for sure but I think its that LC is looking for "what
livecode control" is under this clickloc . and then sends a message
to that controlso in this case, it just send mouseUp to the widget. If
the widget even accepts it.

Good luck Rick.

in theory that is, well then that is just bad list etiquette. :-)

Re: Browser Widget Issues

[Rick Harrison via use-livecode]

Hi Tom,

Do you have a more specific Javascript/LC example?

I’m not a big fan of Javascript and only use it very sparingly.

I would also have to first scan the HTML to find the name of the button I want 
it to activate wouldn’t I?

If I have to go into that fine detail I would be better off scanning for the 
link and just using a URL statement.

Why doesn’t click at location work?

Thanks,

Rick

You just need to pass some javascript to the browser to trigger the button
you want.

do this_js in widget "myBrowser"

and this_js should have the javascript to click the button.

Imagine the possibilities :)

Browser Widget Issues

[Rick Harrison via use-livecode]

I was hoping to be able to programmatically
tell the browser widget where to go to next
by having LC click on an image or button
within the browser window.  

So far I have had no success with that.  
Is there a bug in LC preventing me from
doing this seemingly simple task?

Is there a work around?

Thanks in advance!

OK, so I guess it will work on Win 10, if that is what you are running, right?

Someone else knows if this works on Win >= 7?

thank you for your answers, which leaves some question however.

Is "Chrome" the web engine that LC is unsing in the "browser widget" on Windows?
Or do you create that browser with "revbrowseropen..."?

Re: Requirements for display PDF in a browser on Windows?

[Tom Glod via use-livecode]

I have definitely opened PDF in the browser in the past  and it opened
the default "chrome html 5" pdf reader.
everything seems to have worked.
And I don't see why it would no longer work now.
you can google "browser test" from within the browser and it will tell you
some info about the chromium based browser.
Some of it may shock you.

Re: Browser widget - follow redirects setting?

[Keith Clarke via use-livecode]

Hi Matthias,
Thanks for your response and experiment.

Unfortunately, I get the same experience with 'launch URL in...' and 'set the 
URL of…’ widget “Browser”

I think it might be my URL. I’m trying to access the Salesforce OAuth 2.0 User 
Agent flow via the browser, as I can’t get the OAuth library to work for this 
flow.

Maybe I’ll try dipping my to into tsnet, as that looks like it may have the 
comparative mechanisms to replicate a recipe I have working from PHP.

Thanks and regards,
Keith

Re: Browser widget - follow redirects setting?

[matthias rebbe via use-livecode]

Keith,

what happens, if you set the URL of the browser widget to tURL?

I tried here both "set the url..." and also "launch URL ... in widget.." with 
an online Shop. I tried to launch the account page. In both cases i was 
redirected to the login page.
The only thing i noticed is, that the URL of the widget kept to be the URL of 
the account page although  the login page was opened/displayed.

Regards,
Matthias

Browser widget - follow redirects setting?

[Keith Clarke via use-livecode]

Hi folks,
Is there any hidden / undocumented setting for the Browser widget that will 
allow it to follow redirects?

Using launch URL tURL opens the default browser on my machine and - if I’m not 
logged into the server - redirects to a login page, the address of which I can 
see in the browser’s address bar.

However, launch URL tURL in widget "Browser” doesn’t redirect and subsequently 
put the URL of widget  “Browser" shows tURL unchanged.

Am I missing a trick?
Best,
Keith

I think you'll need to include an Edit menu with the normal shortcuts 
(Cut/Copy/Paste) - make sure the tag of the items is correct as the 
engine uses those to map them to the internal (Cocoa) references. e.g.


  (Cu /X|cut
  ( /C|copy
  ( /V|paste

Cocoa-based controls (which the browser widget uses the WebView variant 
of) don't respond to shortcuts directly, but only via menu item 
accelerators - so the browser widget needs the menu items present for 
such shortcuts to work.


Warmest Regards,

Mark.

How to paste into a form element in the browser widget

[Tore Nilsen via use-livecode]

I have a problem pasting into a form element on a web page in the browser 
widget. This works well in the IDE, but not in a standalone application. The 
application has no menus, but I have included a pasteKey script to handle paste 
shortcuts. This does not seem to do the trick in the browser widget. I have 
tried to put the script in the stack script, the card script and even in the 
widget itself, although I wouldn’t expect the latter to work. Are there anyone

Sorry, dumb question time - what is the "Application Overview" ?

Thanks

Re: Project browser docs

[J. Landman Gay via use-livecode]

I found a lesson on it but it doesn't say what the dotted outline around 
some cards means.


A full explanation of the project browser should be in the user guide. I 
didn't think to check the lessons until today and newcomers may not even 
know the lessons exist. If the full documentation is too much to add to the 
guide, at least a link should be provided. Right now the guide only has a 
reference to a Project Browser section that doesn't exist.


I prefer the horizontal layout in the Application Overview, but i thought 
I'd give the PB another try now that I'm working on a simpler project. It's 
too unweildy for multi-stack projects with lots of controls.

Re: access DOM in browser widget?

[Tim Selander via use-livecode]

Sorry to pick up this thread half a year later, but I am 
searching for an answer to a related problem.


On the LiveCode Forums I learned that if the page is loaded in a 
Browser widget on the desktop version of LC, you can [get the 
htmltext of widget "browser"] and get the info JS provides that 
is not part of the page's HTML source code. (In my case, I want 
the number of plays of a track on Soundcloud.)


But I would like to get at this JS/DOM info through an LC Server 
script running on my on-rev.com server -- no browser widget there.


Does anyone know how to get the JS/DOM generated text from a web 
page using LC Server?


Any help appreciated!

Have you had a look at "do in widget" in the Dictionary? You can actually 
perform JavaScript from LC on content in the browser widget.

Thanks for responding Tom


But if yoiu need any more of a direct way accessing itI don't know of one.

Yes, that's what I'm after: to have a browser widget in a LiveCode stack, and 
be able to access the DOM (not the htmlText) in LiveCode script.

It's not my page so I can't add javascript to it.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

TIA,

Ben

thanks a lot for the fast response!
Yes, same here, somehow missed that one. :-)

I had to check "allowUserInteraction" to make this work.

Now if only the scrollbars would work...

Re: PDF in browser on Mac

[HENRY LOWE via use-livecode]

Using the browser widget to view a PDF under Mac OS 12.0.1 and LC 9.6.5 (rc2), 
if I right click (control + click) anywhere in the displayed PDF (including 
white space) I get a pop-up menu showing several options. Selecting any of the 
PDF’s text and right clicking shows additional options.
