Bill I get what you mean by both quirky and the need for other skills. I’m gradually going through the code to remove the quirkiness but I’m doing this while also trying to develop the solution for our clients. In the process I will also either eliminate the need for learning the ‘other skills’

Sean: It looks really nice If HTML5 deployment didn’t look so quirky and require such a variety of other than livecode skills, I’d give it a try. I hope it will mature before I get too old to care. Bill William A. Prothero https://earthlearningsolutions.org ___
