Thanks for the details. It doesn't do what I need but it could come in
handy in the future.

Jacque,
what i do is echo only a single line as a webpage. The php file is only
called by the API, because i send it with the data to the api as a
return address.
There is no hilited text.
Before this php file would contain the URL scheme and reopen the app to
continue where it was, but now i do this:
in the php file:
<?php
echo"return to mysuperdeluxeapp"
/* in stead of --> header ("Location:mysuperdeluxeapp://"); */
?>
then in LC in widget script i do:
*on*browserDocumentLoadComplete pUrl
*local*tT
*put*thehtmlTextofwidget"awesomebrowser"intotT
*repeat* for5times
*if* tT contains"return to mysuperdeluxeapp"*then*
*set*theurlofwidget"awesomebrowser"toempty
*go*tocard"letsgoon"
*exit* *repeat*
*end* *if*
*end* *repeat*
*end*browserDocumentLoadComplete

I was replying to you, JJS. I might be confused about how your method
works. How does returning a line from the server allow hiliting text
in the widget?

Who are you referring to Jacque? hh or me?
If it's me, then:
i echo only one line of text with the php file which is called after
the api routine succeeded.
this way i can just look for that one sentence, it goes so fast you
can't see it and the app switches to another card

Actually, I need to hilite a portion of the text in the browser
rather than just get the whole content. Are you doing that?
Eventually I may need to get the user's drag-selection too, but not
yet.

i use this now for an api which redirects to a php file which
echoes a line of text (as normally it would use the URL scheme, but
this does not work with the widget)
this way i could use the browser widget and stay in the
app(mobile) instead of using a external browser and retunring to
the app afterwards which is an ugly thing and leaves the url open
in an extenal browser.
if the text in the browser is my text then it moves on(and i'm
checking like 10 times)
It works great!

Is there a way to get/set selected text in a browser widget? I
couldn't find anything.
