Thanks Bob Yeah, I actually already have something like that. I’d abbreviated my code to keep it simple on the forum. I’m not having trouble connecting. It’s just the shortage of data returned from the server. It’s actually skipping a whole chunk in the middle which is the weirdest part.
There is this bug which is yet to be followed up on. https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22216 So I look forward to that in a couple of years maybe. In the meantime I’m hoping I find a solution to this or else it’s yet another reason for clients to disappear saying “you can’t even do so and so”. It gets so tedious having all the workarounds on workarounds.
