JLM, Thanks for the clarification. BR, Another way to do this without using the un-supported plist hack is to save the state of your app before you launch the browser and then restore the app to the saved state when it restarts.

This has to do with the default behavior of LC and the OS it runs on. By default, LC mobile apps quit when they are not frontmost. The behavior after that depends on the OS. On Android, the LC app will remain in RAM until the OS needs the memory, at which point it will quit. If the user goes back to the LC app before it has been removed from memory, the user will return to the place it last left off. If the app has been removed, it re-launches to its opening screen. On iOS the app is not retained in RAM, it always quits. Ralph provided the work-around that allows the app to run in the background. It is not supported and can fail depending on what the app does. If you use it, test to make sure it works reliably. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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
