Hi Bill,
Looks like you are using our old browser implementation. Try using the
new revBrowserOpenCEF function as this no longer requires Internet
Explorer on Win and Safari on Mac.
e.g.
on openBrowser
put the windowID of this stack into tWinID
put revBrowserOpenCEF(tWinID,"http://earthednet.org/ptExplorer/Cover.html";)
into sBrowserID
revBrowserSet sBrowserID,"showborder","true"
revBrowserSet sBrowserID, "rect",rect of grc "browserRect"
end openBrowser
Kind Regards,
Neil Roger

Folks:
I’m testing a LC app I developed on a Macintosh, on a PC, Windows 7, 32 bit,
LC7.0.1, release version. I’m having a problem with the browser window. I put
my help files online and one of them includes a youTube video in Flash format.
The video plays at half size. I don’t know if this is a bug, but I have a Mac
with a retina display (running Parallels 9), and an external monitor that’s not
a retina display. All of the regular Livecode cards display fine, but the
youTube video is about half size. The text is at the expected size. I just use
the embed code provided by youTube. It is:
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/qK-1pmCX_7c" allowfullscreen=""
frameborder="0" height="315" width="420"></iframe><br>
<br>
The width turns out to be more like 195, about half the width expected.
The browser open script is:
on openBrowser
put the windowID of this stack into tWinID
put revBrowserOpen(tWinID,"http://earthednet.org/ptExplorer/Cover.html";)
into sBrowserID
revBrowserSet sBrowserID,"showborder","true"
revBrowserSet sBrowserID, "rect",rect of grc "browserRect"
end openBrowser
The linked page has a link to the youTube video.
Is this a bug in Livecode? Seems the browser should work the same way as on the
Mac. Or, is it some problem with Flash videos and some adjustment can be made?
Also, when I open this page in Explorer, everything is at half size. In
Firefox, it’s the expected size. Since Explorer is not based on WebKit, I’m not
surprised at the variation, and it’s not a problem because my app doesn’t
interact with Explorer anyway.
By the way, this video will not display at all in a 64bit version of Windows 7.
And I’m using Parallels 9 on my Mac to run Windows.
Regards,
Bill
