LiveCode Forums

Thanks to everyone who has responded. I have a LiveCodePro license, but I'm concerned about having to use LiveCode on a computer that can't use the community version (to the point that I may have to do without either LiveCode or that computer, for example, if I'm traveling). LiveCode 9.3.11 (paid) s...

Hi all,

I can't make LiveCode start with Sonoma 14.1 (tried with 8.2.0, 9.5.1, 9.6.1, 9.6.3). Reading some posts in this forum it seems as if it is implied that LC doesn't work in Sonoma, but I'm not sure. Is this the case? And if so, can it be fixed?

best,
Daniel

To make any possible answer easier, what I try to do is perform the chi-square test on the distribution of a certain feature along the year. The expected results (given that the feature is climate independent, etc) would be the same for all 30 days months (30 * total) / 365, 31 days months (31 * tot...

This is a long shot, I know: is there a LiveCode stack already mad that helps the user to perform the chi-square test on the user on his or her own data?

Dear DumbarX and Stem, I wish you all the best this Christmas.

Your's aye, Richard.

I meant Stam. Don't be tough on me this time of the year Richmond

Naturally, LiveCode is an incomparably more developed environment, and many ways come to mind to do the same thing, but what is the most elegant and cost-effective way to use the same background shared by all the "cards" in a stack? Could you point me to a good example of a LiveCode stack where thi...

Here's a very simple example I just made:

Just perfect, thanks!

There was a programming environment for the Mac many years ago... well, surely no one remembers it, but the fact is that in this environment, which was also based on the concept of a stack, there was a basic opposition between background and card (foreground). This was very useful for applications s...

How can AppleScript be used to trigger JavaScript functions inside of a web page?

I don't think you can (but I'm not an expert on AppleScript)

Thanks so much, as always, Craig, Richrad, for your answers Richard. In you opinion, then, what benefit does the "Send to Program" command still offer? I found it hobbled to say the least. Craig In my opinion, this is a nice example of the situation where you would appreciate something akin to the "...

Hi Craig, What program would you think would be at the other end? Something like "send "openThis" to program "Safari" with "XURL"? Exactly this. Send "OpenThis" to (a modern browser) with ThisURL *and* then another instruction to download the uploaded page (which is a page created after a PHP request)

Is there a way to use LC's "send to program" (on a Mac) to first open then download a WebPage providing the URL?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I'm not an expert but I do have some experience with Bootstrap. And yet I wouldn't know how to solve he problem. Actually this problem seem to appear for most sites using PHP I'm finding in a quick survey. For instance, this one (a much simpler page): https://logeion.uchic...

Thanks FourthWorld, Emily-Elizabeth. An example of a page that doesn't download well may be this one https://www.dicciogriego.es/index.php#lemas?lema=801&n=801 OTOH, and regarding Emily-Elizabeth suggestion, I'd appreciate an example of the actual code used in a script to set the User-Agent header t...

Most webpages today are dynamic (and when they are not, I always feel some nostalgia for the lost Internet golden years past :) Anyway, when I try to download one of these dynamic pages (generated or not by PHP) using LC (with get URL or libURLDownloadToFile) I usually get nothing but rubbish: eithe...
