Re: How can I scrape text from a web page that is generated by javascript?

No workie. I create a new sitemap with a URL of http://192.168.1.87 and it tells me it's not a valid URL!!! That is strike 3 for me when I encounter that kind of problem. Even if I load the full url default page for that device, then copy paste the URL it STILL tells me it's invalid. Bob S

Re: How can I scrape text from a web page that is generated by javascript?

I have tried this before and it does not work without getting into Javascript. The contents of a java object are not revealed in the htmltext. I have a really great application for this if I could get it going. I would love to write an app that gathered all the pertinent data from a web

With me, I place a red dot, find an error in the script, edit the script neither adding nor deleting any lines, save script, red dot does not wander, but also does not break code execution. It just executed past it. I think this started with the unicode update. I will try copying my code to a

There are some cases where breakpoints are deliberately ignored. Any breakpoints when there is modal stack open and in resizeStack and moveStack handlers. You can debug these using the remote debugger only. Cheers Monte > On 25 Jul 2017, at 1:37 am, Bob Sneidar via use-livecode >

Re: How can I scrape text from a web page that is generated by javascript?

Something like autoit can probably be set up to automate things. Set up an autoit script that does the scrape, then use os scheduling tools to run the script as often as you like. I haven't done it in windows in a while, but I think "at" is deprecated. Can't recall whats replaced it. On Mon,

So... I can make it scrape, then save to a CSV, then read the CSV into LC and use the data. But how to automate the scraping and CSV saving at a given interval, I'm not there yet. ~Roger On Mon, Jul 24, 2017 at 4:53 PM, Mike Kerner via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: >

RE: Ethereal Breakpoints

I always figured the flood of messages was what locked-up LC when you debug a resize event. I just fire it off at the command line and then debug the resizestack code. When I inadvertently do this and lock-up LC most (90%+) an "F5" or two or three times gets things going again so you can save the

Hi Warren, thanks for your ideas. It might be, that I am using any special encoding option. Since I don't have one of those incompatible devices, I can't test it out easily, but if it get worse, I'll have to investigate it deeper. I already tried other codecs for encoding with Sorenson squeeze,

AW: AW: AW: [OT]h.264 alternatives

I think the source of the problem that there is no standard codec for h.264 on windows is, that LiveCode uses the almost deprecated directShow API and not the current Microsoft media foundation API. For MMF there probably is a standard codec for h.264 available on the machine. That’s really a
