The later technique with javascript is what people uses these days but it will require you to learn javascript which is IMHO a VERY GOOD LANGUAGE both powerful and fun. > > > Any advice on how I should approach this would be most welcome > > > > Regards > > Kevin Stallibrass > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > use-livecode mailing list > [email protected] > Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription > preferences: > http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode > -- http://www.andregarzia.com All We Do Is Code. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
