Slava,
it worked on a self assembled russian text including em-dash and guillemets
but not on your text.
This works on your text:
------------------------------------------
on mouseUp
lock screen
get word 4 of the clickCharChunk
put it into tSelPos
put 0 into tStartSel
repeat with i = tSelPos down to 1
put the htmlText of char i of field "textToClickB" into tHTML
if (tHTML contains "<p> <" or tHTML is "<p></p>" or tHTML contains
">,<" or tHTML contains ">.<" \
or tHTML contains "> </font" or tHTML contains
">&•••nbsp;<" or tHTML contains ">&•••laquo;<" or tHTML contains
">&•••raquo;<") then
put i into tStartSel
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
put the number of chars of field 1 into tEndSel
repeat with i = tSelPos to the number of chars of field 1
put the htmlText of char i of field "textToClickB" into tHTML
put char i of tData into taChar
if (tHTML contains "<p> <" or tHTML is "<p></p>" or tHTML contains
">,<" or tHTML contains ">.<" \
or tHTML contains "> </font" or tHTML contains
">&•••nbsp;<" or tHTML contains ">&•••laquo;<" or tHTML contains
">&•••raquo;<") then
put i into tEndSel
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
select char tStartSel + 1 to tEndSel -1 of me
put the htmlText of the selectedtext into tWordClicked
set the htmlText of field "ClickedWord" to tWordClicked
unlock screen
end mouseUp
-------------------------------------------
I added 3 bullets ••• to prevent the automatic conversion to the html
characters, I am posting via Nabble. You'd have to remove the ••• and please
watch out for linebreaks.
I am shure there are more gotchas and it is not getting nicer this way but
it is a poor man's unicode :)
Kind regards
Bernd
