I recognize there needs to be a limit but I think 16k is a little antiquated these days, 32k would be better. Pete lcSQL Software On Sat, May 25, 2013 at 12:51 PM, stephen barncard < stephenrevoluti...@barncard.com> wrote: > perhaps the limits should be upped just a littl

Re: message too big (was Re: Counting problem)

perhaps the limits should be upped just a little bit to accommodate the bulky html baggage. 32k would be perfect. On Sat, May 25, 2013 at 12:46 PM, Colin Holgate wrote: > I use Mail, and it has a Make Plain Text option. I needed to use that when > posting a script a few days ago, to get it unde

I use Mail, and it has a Make Plain Text option. I needed to use that when posting a script a few days ago, to get it under the message size limit. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscrib

Re: Counting problem

Perhaps even stranger: if you start for example with put "a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j" into temp put 0 into tcount delete variable tcount repeat 10 add 1 to tcount[any item of temp] end repeat the loop works fine, even if the variable tcount was not defined as an array and was deleted before the loo

I thought about this when I thought the problem was just picking a random answer. I made a simple sorting function and I didn't use 'any' because I needed the value and the position. Dar On May 24, 2013, at 4:19 PM, Peter Haworth wrote: > On Fri, May 24, 2013 at 2:56 PM, wrote: > >> get a

I see the same problem on both 5.5.3 and 6.0.1 - but testing in the message box. Oddly, I happened to notice that if I change the script to be put "a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j" into temp repeat 10 add 1 to counter[any item of temp] put counter["b"] into tJunk -- i.e. I add a si
