Chip is correct that "You can't just design your website on cards and have it convert to a website", but you can run stacks with multiple cards as a revlet using the RunRev plugin. There are currently limitations with which browsers, but for the ones it works on, it works great! I don't do html/css/php, etc. I use LiveCode 100% and publish as revlets, and this makes database access a breeze. ˜Roger _______________________________________________ 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
