Getting the clicktext from a browser control

How are people dealing with the inability to know when a user clicks a link in a (desktop) browser object? The only message I get reliably is "browserNavigateComplete". What if I want to know what's clicked before that? BrowserClick only works on Windows, so I can't use that. BrowserBeforeNav

I use a utility called Alfred on my Mac. I believe it uses Spotlight but I like the user interface. It allows you to search for files whose name contain , and also allows you to search for files whose contents contain . Plus it allows hotkeys for launching apps or files, and a clipboard with me

Re: Multi-platform development.

This isn't so much about 'multi-platform' development but about designing apps for different interaction / display combinations. I'd say the key thing is to separate your design into modelcontroller and view. In the ideal case a UI is a 'thin' layer on top of an API based model which encodes al

Re: Arrays: digitally signing them

Usually a digital signature is applied to a specific sequence of bytes so needing a canonical representation isn't necessary. (They are used to ensure the specific bytes are as signed). What's the reason for requiring ordered keys in this case? Note that utf-8 has multiple representations per s

Re: mobilepick more than one option at a time without more than one pickwheel?

If you look at the "Registration" section you will find an example " Professional Credentials". That is an example of choosing more than one but unless I'm wrong, that can stay as it is. It is not an iOS menupicker. I will consult with her to be sure. What I was referring to is only the few examp

mobilepick more than one option at a time without more than one pickwheel?

Hi all, is there a way to let the user pick more than one option in ONE mobilepick xyz? I do not want to show two or more pickwheels! If yes, how can this be done? Or do I need to „roll my own“ with a listfield or a group or something? Like provideing a list of weekday names and the user can sel

Thanks Bob. I was not expecting quick replies to my question - I know it's a tough, and potentially wide, area to address. Thanks for the pointers to those apps - I looked closely at QuickInfo and more briefly at the other. My first comment is that I guess I'm not ready to give up on LC yet :
