So:

I made a stack with a button and 2 fields in LiveCode 8.0 DP 15 and a spot of scripting in the button, and exported the thing as an HTML5 standalone, then opened the generated page in Firefox, and (apart from the slightly squiffy aesthetics) the thing
looked and behaved exactly like the original stack.

Rocks!

So . . . . I am getting all revved-up to generate an HTML page for University students of my wife's to do a gap-fill exercise, AND, having clicked on a "SUBMIT" button to have the results
put into a merry text-file and e-mailed to my wife.

AND the question is: can anybody tell me how to send a text file generated in Livecode
to an email address?

So: I popped this in a button of my stack:

on mouseUp
revMail "z...@gmail.com", "q...@gmail.com", "Test", "Message sent from LiveCode-HTML5"
end mouseUp

From the stack that button opened my email client (Thunderbird) and filled in all the required boxes.

Absolutely fantastic!!!

BUT, from the same stuck, once hived-off as an HTML5 thing the button didn't work.

The next question, inevitably, is what will happen if one's end-user accesses their e-mail via a web-browser and has no configured e-mail client installed on their computer?

I have just run that stack on a computer at my school which has no e-mail client configured:

clicking the button resulted in absolutely nothing.

What I would love is a way for a way for a stack to "phone home" when an end-user clicks on a button

[Quick clarification here: I don't mean "phone home" in a sneaky, underhand sort of way which some software does, but send an e-mail message to some e-mail address when an end-user clicks on a button and asks them if they object to a message being sent]

Preferably this would be WITHOUT the message having to go via the client's e-mail system as:

1.  The message should be anonymous.

2.  The end-user may have no e-mail client configured.
