Livecode Javascript Compiler

I've a question regarding the roll-out, and eventual functionality of Livecode HTML5. In the recent roadmap blogpost there was an indication that compiling the Livecode language to Javascript was achieved relatively quickly, but that the harder part was the rendering of the interface to the Canvas

By checking with Firebug, it seems the calculator “page” initially makes 67 HTTP GET requests and then another 3 HTTP requests before the calculator is displayed. One of these subsequent requests is http://livecode.com/demo/html5/calculator/standalone-community.html.mem

If that one stack has all the media inside a binary, then yes. If it’s exported as regular HTML5, a lot of media will be individual files. Those will get cached by HTML5 anyway, but for the first time user if you can download 6 items at the same time, it’s dramatically faster than downloading o

Re: recursionlimit mystery!

I have an app called “Forward Citation Generator" that looks for so-called “forward citations” of a patent, i.e., patents that issue _after_ the target patent that cite the target patent. It looks for forward citations of the target patent, then looks for forward citations of that 1st generation

Hi Mark & Mike Thanks for your replies. To be more specific about my request, I don't suspect any problem with the app, since it's been working fine in this very office (as well as in others) for more than 2 years. Problems started sporadically only 10 days ago and in only one office. Apart from w

It seems I have a working setup. Following Stephen's suggestion I reordered the files a bit. I'll try to make the description as detailed as possible. Maybe someone else could use this. (The numbers in brackets show permissions): |- .htaccess (644) |- lc (755) |- test.lc (644) |- cgi-bin (7

Hi JBV, Do you give the standalone sufficient time to complete the start-up? For slightly bigger projects, I do this: on preOpenStack hide this stack send "initiateProject" to me in 2 seconds end preOpenStack on initateProject // do everything else here, // e.g. loading data from a se

Re: A question for Windows specialists

Since you're loading from a remote server, if your requests are http requests, say in the form of " http://my.server.com/getData.php?param1=value¶m2=value"; can you tack on a "&requestrefresh=(the seconds)" .. In this way, each hit will always be new and any weird caching issues should be sidestep

Re: [BUG] HTMLText incorrectly converted

Hi Kay, I'd think there are at least two valid reasons why your bug report should not have been closed without a fix. Browsers don't render the h5 tag as italic. The h5 tag is a valid tag and should be dealt with correctly. LiveCode doesn't honour any HTML standard, but I still believe that
