Hi,

For example, let's say my revlet is at:

http://devin.com/revlets/mystackpage.html

It should be fairly simple to either derive the URL within the
revlet stack or to pass the URL as a parameter when launching the
revlet. (I haven't tried this myself yet, but I've seen others
describe here how to pass params.) Once your revlet stack has that
information, just have it do:

set the itemdelimiter to "/"
put item 1 to -2 of tURLreceivedAsParam & "/resources/myprefs.txt"
into tPrefsURL
put URL tPrefsURL into tMyPrefs
-- now do whatever you want with the prefs.




Hi Devin,

i don't understand

what is "tURLreceivedAsParam" ????

Hi Yves,

That is just a hypothetical variable name that I made up for this example. It assumes that you have been able to pass a parameter to the revlet from the web page that calls it and you have put the parameter data into that variable. The variable could have any name you wanted. In the example I was proposing, you would pass the URL to the revlet, then parse the stack name out of the URL, leaving only the path to the revlet stack.

Regards,

Devin
