Re: Charset problems with .lc web page

2015-12-24 Thread Alex Tweedly
Hi Tim, I'm afraid I know little or nothing about charsets, so I can't directly help :-) The difference between .irev and .lc is which version of the server engine they are running - and obviously that depends on your server setup. So, to help with answering this, we (might) need to know whi

Sorry Tim, I should have been clearer - it is literally $_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"] that you want to print. That's one of the built-in $_SERVER variables, showing which 'cgi' script (i.e. which version of the engine is running). So you'll get something like /usr/local/cpanel/cgi-sys/livecode

Hi Alex, Got it! The .lc file shows: /usr/local/cpanel/cgi-sys/livecode-server-6.6.2 The .irev file shows /usr/local/cpanel/cgi-sys/ireviam-engine And the .irev file continues to show utf-8 (Japanese) correctly while the .lc file does not. Actually tested it with the exact same file, simply

Hi Lyn, Thanks for the tip. But I tried it, and it didn't solve the problem with .lc & ?>. However, without fail, using .irev as the filename extension and tags in the web page show utf8 Japanese correctly -- so I am content to use those. Problem solved, as far as I'm concerned. Thanks! T

Seasons Greetings on Christmas Eve! Does anybody know how to scroll just one line per mouse-wheel movement through the script editor window? I typically view several thousand lines at a time. Each push of the little scroll wheel on my mouse produces an abrupt 'jerk' of 10 or 15 lines. It's

Try this (untested). Put the following into a frontscript. Watch for email-induced linebreaks. on rawkeydown n if not (the name of the selectedfield contains "revNewScriptEditor") then pass rawkeydown if the optionkey is down then pass rawkeydown -- use optionkey to return to usual scr

In the stack revscripteditor.rev there are two places where a constant is set. I’m not sure how you safely convert a palette stack into an ordinary stack, make changes, and convert it back, especially when it’s the script editor you’re messing with! But, a hex editor did the trick nicely. If yo

I suspect the scroll wheel is sending multiple rawKeyDown messages per scroll unless you are able to be very precise when you do it. On December 24, 2015 2:17:36 PM CST, Ray wrote: >Peter - thanks for the idea. I've tried it along with a few variations > >on it but unfortunately to no avail.

That comment is talking about inertia, which is something you can turn off. I didn’t though, just setting the scrolling to only go 1 line instead of 3 is manageable enough. > On Dec 24, 2015, at 6:12 PM, J. Landman Gay wrote: > > We've been here before: >

Hi Bramanatha: You don't say why you're using images as the tiles. The easiest solution would be to use a different object, like a button or graphic as the tile. That said, if you're set on using imported images, the key to making them clickable is to make the background of the captured image 1%
