It should be more efficient way to do this but this example should work on mouseUp put "Mark,Ann,Jim,kevin" into myvarOne put myvarOne into temp repeat with i = 1 to the number of items of temp put item i of temp into myData["Student","name",i] end repeat put "Kate,Antonio,Scott" into myvarTwo put myvarTwo into temp repeat with i = 1 to the number of items of temp put item i of temp into myData["prof","name",i] end repeat set the customProperties["cData"] of this stack to myData put the short name of this stack into MYstackName -- put the cData ["student","name","3"] of stack MYstackName into OneElement set the customPropertySet of stack MYstackName to "cData" put customkeys of stack MYstackName into MyList set the customPropertySet of stack MYstackName to empty -- to set it back to default custom properties repeat with j= 1 to number of lines of MyList put the cData [line j of MyList] of stack MYstackName into line j of MyListContent end repeat put MyListContent & cr & "=" &cr & mylist end mouseUp Best Regards Tariel Gogoberidze ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

It didn't quite work for me the way I wanted it to, but it was enough of a start that I was able to work out the rest of the solution for myself. I was running into a problem where it was giving me just the previous item selected and not the current one chosen.

Re: BUG in CONVERT command - or I can't tell the time
That is what the documentation says. 0 seconds is 12 midnight, Jan 1, 1970 GMT. Or at least close to it. There are discrepancies with convert for zero(s) seconds and -1 seconds. -2 secs -> 23:59:59 -1 secs -> 12:00:00 mid GMT -0 secs -> 12:00:00 mid GMT zero secs -> 0 (the result = invalid date) 0 secs -> 0 (the result = invalid date) +0 secs -> 12:00:00 mid GMT 1 secs -> 12:00:01 get 0 -- and so on convert it to long time put it&&the result michael Ian Summerfield of [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote the following on 4/21/02 4:25 PM > Maybe this only goes wrong under OS X.

BUG in CONVERT command - or I can't tell the time
Maybe this only goes wrong under OS X. I'm using OS X 10.1.4. Maybe this only goes wrong depending on your date and time setting, I'm set to time zone "United Kingdom" and my system indicates BST. Revolution is ONE hour out with it's results using CONVERT, I think they have based something on GMT. In the message box type: Put 21600 into xxx Convert xxx to short time Xxx Xxx contains 7:00; BUT that should be 6:00. I get 6 from: 21600 seconds / 60 = 360 minutes 360 minutes / 60 = 6 hours Now where did it get 7 from? I don't see any mod function around to blame (joke). My code used to work when we were on GMT, so no doubt it has something to do with the engine ignoring time zone settings. ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: 'hack' test results
Depending on what you're doing exactly, you might find that the "md5digest" will help you out. It generates a 128bit key from a string - eg a password string. I've been using this key as the starting seed to encrypt/decrypt password and userid combinations using a script of my own. It then doesn't matter if anyone sees the encrypted string or the decryption script, because without the key, neither is of any use. Unless your application is requesting a password at runtime, or at any rate at some point before your encrypted data are used, it probably won't help you, but I thought I'd mention it anyway - FWIW. martin baxter >From: Rick Harrison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >on 4/20/2002 1:23 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > >>> The only data they should be seeing is the data I want >>> to show to them.

Have I > missed something? Where in the documentation did you find > this little nugget? You need to do this manually by removing the !c when the menu item is selected, and then putting it back in when it is selected again. Here's an example: on menuPick put the menuHistory of me into tSelection put me into tMenuItems if char 1 to 2 of line tSelection of tMenuItems = "!c" then delete char 1 to 2 of line tSelection of tMenuItems else put "!c" before line tSelection of tMenuItems end if put tMenuItems into me end menuPick This toggles the checkmark for a menu item in a popup menu button. BTW: You can find this in the Revolution Documentation - click on the "RoadMap" button, then click "Development Guide", then "Menus", then "menus and the menu bar" (under the About section). Scroll down about half way to "Special Effects In Menus".

John, Yuk, we shouldn't have to be worrying about such things. Perhaps Ken Ray's idea about "lock messages" before opening the stack is the solution to prevent ripping. I'm downloading MCRipper to play around with it myself to see what evils it can really do. Thanks for the hack tests!

The returned URL
Hello all, I've got a URL that points to a CGI script, returning a different URL and data. The URL looks something like: "http://somesite.com/search/city?p=tokyo"; but returns quite a different URL: "http://somesite.com/result"; I'm trying to work out if there is a way to find the returned URL and not just the data. I've tried half a dozen ways, no luck. Can this be done? This is all new to me. Cheers and thanks!

Re: chunk order restriction
"...first word 1..."? I assume you mean "first word" or "word 1". Importantly, you also need to reduce confusion to Rev by parenthesising the second part of the expression, thus: get last item of (first word of "abc\def ghij\kl") then it works (or did for me). cheers David On Sunday, April 21, 2002, at 07:17 , Edwin Haskell wrote: > when I run this script: > > set the itemdelimiter to "\" > get last item of first word 1 of "abc\def ghij\kl" > > I get this message: > Script compile error: > Error description: Chunk: bad chunk order (must be small to large) > > I guess this means I can't put items in words like I can in Hypercard? > Is there a good reason for this restriction? > > ___ > use-revolution mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution > ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
