With so much being done with electronic books these days, i would thing there
could be a system where individual chapters could be kept reasonably up to
date. But i also find a printed book to be really nice and i often prefer it.
The advantage of a book rather than docs of commands is that
I wish Apple's rules were clearer on this so we could end the confusion
without our community.
Obviously Apple has nothing to say specifically about stacks (a bit too
niche) but I think the rules are quite clear. Previously you could not
download executable code of any kind unless it was

Thanks for the encouraging works, and thanks to John Balgenorth for his

I often wonder whether those long posts are wasting too much time in

I think it would be very hard to justify the effort required for a livecode
book, given all of the changes in livecode on the horizon. Keeping it up to
date would be a huge effort, too.

I would easily pay $100 for such a thing if it really got me going in this

Hi Eric,
Revlets are very unlikely to come back. RunRev is working on an HTML5
export feature. That is probably what you want.
Apart from that, it is easy to write a script to export data from
LiveCode to a website. There are several people on this list who use
LiveCode as a CMS, including
There was a revolution plug in which allowed stacks to be served (I believe as
revlets). I know that has been cancelled, at least for now.
Meanwhile, I have installed livecode for cgi, which and it works.
I searched the internet to see if the livecode server can be used to serve
stacks somehow,

Probably forever. Browser plugins were a popular solution in the '90s,

When I try

it comes up empty. Could there be something missing in y httpd.conf file (Mac
OS X Mountain Lion)? The only two lines that I have added under Directory
/Library/WebServer/Documents are
AddHandler livecode-script .lc
If other things are working (puts, etc) then returning empty on that line
means there are no stacks in use.
Here is a stack you can test with.

stack script, save it next to a test lc script. THe file is saved in 2.7

Hi Phil,
Thanks, but no go. I put the stack on my desktop and used
start using /Users/gregory/Desktop/ParetoServer (Legacy 2.7).livecode
and from the name of the stack, you can see that I took Mike Bonner's advice
and saved it in legacy format.

Is it possible that the web server user doesn't have read permissions on
the stack file?
Also, though its probably correct in your lc server script, it should be

Gregory,
You can't place files outside of the webserver root folder because that
would be a security risk. You don't want web clients to access your private
data from your home folder. Everything that the web server serves is inside
the DOCUMENT_ROOT.

Thanks Andre, Mike, and Phil,
I have it straight now. Stacks go in the web server's root and only legacy
stacks will work. Thank you also for your patience. My Internet coding
abilities are primitive to say the least.
If only the RunRev people would write documentation with some clarity.
Not to minimize your point, it is a valid one, but Runrev has limited
resources, and if they really fully documented everything as well as we would
like, and make it as easily accessible as we would like, we might not see a lot
of development work getting done.
As for the web root access,

Try using the full path to the stackfile in your start using

And don't forget you can't use 5.5 version stacks with lc server so any
stacks you use must be saved in legacy format or lc server can't load them.
