Can a LiveCode server script call a Javascript function?
I want to write some text into a div in an LC server web page without
refreshing the entire page. AFAICT, generating any text from a
LiveCode
server script will replace the contents of page, but cannot target a a
specific DOM element on the page. Since Javascript can do this, is
there
any way to trigger a Javascript function from an LC server script?
The normal way to do this would be to write some JavaScript that
performs an XMLHttpRequest to the LiveCode server script, and then sets
the innerHTML of the <div> element.
Don't forget that JavaScript runs on the client, and LiveCode runs on
the server. There are things you can do in a LiveCode server script
that you can't in JavaScript, and vice versa.
