Re: LiveCode and Websockets
Hi Todd, Depending on what platforms you need to support, I have a socket external for LiveCode that includes the ability to use websockets.

LiveCode and Websockets
We have hot a wall because we have an API that is ONLY accessible via a call to Socket.io server using Websockets. Richard Gaskin, I remember you were looking into this last year, any success from your research. It seems the best way would be to open a web browser and code the communications using Javascript, which would then all a LiveCode function on the callback. Any suggestions would be appreciated!!

Re: Max number of columns in a datagrid?
It's not relevant to the current discussion, but wy back when, I worked with a guy who had created some monster spreadsheets in Excel with something like 9,000 columns. It was working, but it was incredibly slow -- this was running on 68k Macs. Not expecting success, I suggested he give FileMaker a shot. He did, and amazingly, not only did it happily handle database definitions with 9,000 fields, it was not just faster than Excel, it was actually speedy. It had zero problems, and he built out the entirety of his solution that way.

Re: Browser widget and PDFs
Thank you all for your responses, they helped me solve the problem for my part. It is indeed the Adobe web Plugin that is the key to this. Although I have never checked that I would like to use this plugin, it seems as if just launching Acrobat will do this automatically. In the Acrobat preferences the check button for this is set to true, and the button is disabled. I ended up removing Acrobat from the system, but I could probably have followed Hermans advice and just remove the plugin from the Internet plains folder. Now I have to ask my student to do the same in order to have the pdf-files displayed without all the bells and whistles provided by the plugin.

Re: Browser widget and PDFs
If the PDF is embedded by ordinary HTML (= set url of the browser widget or use in its htmlText , or ) then you can't decide for the user which plugin to use. But the user can force this for himself by moving the corresponding plugin(s) in/out of the plugins-folder (which is on Mac "/Library/Internet Plug-ins"). Controlling is fully possible because the user cannot disable JavaScript for the browser widget. So you can use the rendering library "pdf.js": https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/ (which drives the Firefox and Opera PDF-viewer). This isn't easy to implement if CORS isn't available, but you can use base64-encoded data URLs without problems. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

I don’t think so, as the default app is set to be Preview on both machines. In fact I had forgot I had Acrobat installed on my laptop.

Browser widget and PDFs
I have come across a puzzling phenomenon in how the browser widget handles pdfs. On my iMac I do no have Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat installed. Here, the browser widget displays pdf-files without any hiccups. On my MacBook I have Adobe Acrobat installed, and the browser widget seems to use Adobe Acrobat to display pdf-files inside the widget. When I remove Adobe Acrobat from the application folder, trying to view a pdf-file in the browser widget will prompt me to locate either Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
