[iOS] possible bug with javascriptHandlers on iOS

I started a thread today about a possible bug with using “put without a target” on iOS. That bug appeared while I was trying to debug a problem with a mobile app we’re developing. It is an odd bug, we have it working on macOS Desktop inside the IDE and on Android, but it fails on iOS. The proble

Re: httpd library

I love when you folks call me a young man :-) I’ve been 41 for a while now and no one asks for my ID when I buy a beer anymore. Well, back on topic, is there something wrong with the HTTPD library that LiveCode ships right now? It should serve for the purposes your friend wants. I’m going to te

Re: httpd library

Just an update, the httpd library works on mobile. The httpd library I’m mentioning here is the one bundled with LiveCode. I think Malte built it, it is very similar to the one I built in the past but I am sure it is a bit smarter. I’ve created a demo stack at: https://andregarzia.com/files/mob

Re: httpd library

Bernard, Thanks for the kind words my friend. :-) I can barely believe it has been 15 years already, it feels like yesterday. Don’t worry about the database library, I’m just going to relicense it as MIT which will make it free to use for all use cases. I’m no longer providing support or sell

9.6.4?

Something funky is going on the website. It was off for maintenance a couple minutes ago and then all of a sudden, I receive a notification from the updater stack to download 9.6.4 There was no release cycle for 9.6.4. The release is marked as stable. Where were the DPs and RCs for that release
