As part of checking for updates in my products, I go get a file that has the latest version of the product and compares it to the installed version, pretty common logic.
The sequence of commands is: put URL (the cVersionFile of me) into tVersionInfo if the result is not empty then return the result else < check the version etc> end if cVersionFile contains "http:www.lcsql.com/<path to the version file" This works fine on my Mac but has been failing on my Windows 8 machine with the result containing "invalid host name". I put the same URL into my browser on the Windows 8 machine and saw the contents of the file displayed in the browser. Is this some strange Livecode problem or a Windows 8 config issue? I don't have access to another Windows box to check the latter.
