hi, lingoists
i didn't expect that...
if i have the following lines in a movie script:
--*************************
global gNetID,gNetTextInfo
on startMovie
tryAgain
end
on tryAgain
gNetID = getNetText("http://www.alternex.com.br/~quixada/info.txt")
gNetTextInfo = getNetText("http://www.alternex.com.br/~quixada/access.txt")
end
--*************************
and a routine, on a frame script, that periodically (say, from 5 to 5
minutes) calls the tryAgain handler again, the projector will attempt to
dial at launching and from 5 to 5 minutes. it only happens if the user has
set the internet explorer to dial everytime a connection is not avaiable. i
didn't know that getNetText would do such a thing. is there a way to
prevent it to happen, and still perform the 5 to 5 minutes checking? the
only way i can think of is to check if there's a connection available, and
if not, do nothing. something like:
on tryAgain
if internetConnectionIsAvailable then
gNetID = getNetText("http://www.alternex.com.br/~quixada/info.txt")
gNetTextInfo =
getNetText("http://www.alternex.com.br/~quixada/access.txt")
else
nothing
end if
end
i've checked the manuals entrances for getstreamstatus, on streamStatus,
but didn't work. to any ideas?
