Hi,
I fooled around with array's and pull-parsers for an easier solution.
"Dimensional Arrays:
This thing is not a real array within an array, it just acts like one. It provides a way to store the data as MTML, like simple XML. This version is created with functions that can be copied to your own scripts.
Paste this into the message window: go URL "http://www.gizmotron.org/revolution/dimensionalList.rev";
-- see stack scripts for functions
-- function addArray dataString, spotArray, theData
-- Note: addArray() will replace data that already exists in the dataString
-- Example for adding multi-dimensional data:
-- put addArray(myMTMLDataString, "[1][4][5]", "John Doe") into field "showMTML"
-- put addArray(myMTMLDataString, "1,4,5", "John Doe") into field "showMTML"
-- see stack scripts for functions -- function getArray dataString, spotArray -- Example for getting multi-dimensional data: -- put getArray(myMTMLDataString, "[1][4][5]") into field "showData" -- put getArray(myMTMLDataString, "1,4,5") into field "showData"
An old eperiment from the past:
put: go url "http://www.gizmotron.org/frogbreath.rev"; into the message window with a active internet connection.
Regarding a comment about my pull-parser used in this I have been using it to run my MTML browser and speed. In that browser I was using set the htmlText of field "offScreenField1" to thisVar and then using put the htmlText of field "offScreenField1" to thatVar after that. This turned out to be the choke point in my parser. I needed to clean up fragments of html that didn't have completed syntax because only a smaller portion of the full markup was being used in the thisVar variable above. Rev has the ability to correct bad html. An example of that would be in grabbing the front part of an anchor tag while not including the end tag. the htmlText function adds it in so that the anchor works properly.
Once I used lock screen and unlock screen my cleanup script went from 356 ticks to 0 ticks when parsing a once considered very large document. So it now looks like I have my solution to fast enough pull-parsing.
