RE: Images
Hi Judy, My bet is that _that's_ your problem. Things that are groups with background behavior will appear on all subsequently-created cards. That's what background behavior means. Hmm. Would seem you have a point. Chipp's code didn't seem to make any difference (except that the card corrupted on loading. :-( ). So would you suggest creating an image object dynamically, or is there a better way?

I see lots of refs to this on the net but this one is troubling,
though perhaps very old, indicating that Outlook will not handle
a simple path parameter to a doc.
However, you commonly see code trying to use mailto like this:
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] there
shipmateBody=Here's the shipping
manifestAttach=D:\manifest.doc
It probably won't attach the document because you are at the
liberty of the email client to implement the mailto protocol and
include parsing for the attachment clause. You may not know what
mail client is installed on the PC, so it may not always work -
Outlook certainly doesn't support attachments using mailto.

but there is this C code option, but I don't think ther eis a
simple way to add a C code chunk to a rev script on the fly
If your customers are using Outlook or Outlook Express as their
email client, then you can use the MailTo comamnd with a little
help. Here is the C# code I use to programmatically add attachments
to emails.
string filename = openFileDialog1.FileName;
// look at the registry mailto command to determine the default
email client
RegistryKey key = Registry.ClassesRoot.OpenSubKey(@mailto\shell
\open\command);
if (key != null)
{
// look for Outlook
string mailto_command = (string) key.GetValue();
if (mailto_command.ToLower().IndexOf(outlook.exe) 0)
{
// execute mailto: command
string execute = @mailto:?;;
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(execute);
// delay 1/2 second so that the email client can open
Thread.Sleep(500);

SendKeys.Send(%(if) + filename + {TAB}{TAB}{ENTER});

{
// execute mailto: command
string execute = @mailto:?;;

Re: Can't FTP - any ideas?
Hi Ken, I was going through the same thing yesterday. Apparently, FTP access on the Mac has been made more restrictive in Tiger than it was in Panther. Port 21 is open, but you'll have to open port 20 for data by creating a separate firewall rule on the server. That way, you can have the firewall turned on, but still send and receive via FTP. I'm not computer suave, but I did verify that this is what is necessary for Interarchy and Revolution to work with the firewall turned on. I was then able to use get URL (ftp:/...) to download files successfully and very quickly I might add. I haven't tried to upload yet, but I'm assuming that works too. To make a new firewall rule on the remote Mac, open Sharing preferences, click on the Firewall tab and then the New... button. Then enter this information. Port Name: Other TCP Port Number(s): 20-21, 1024-65535 UDP port Number(s) Leave Empty Description: Revolution Passive FTP Access [or whatever you like] The only other thing you need to make sure, as Mark Schonewille advised me yesterday, is that your Revolution FTP mode, passive or active, must be the same as that on your remote Mac in the Network/ Proxies panel.

Re: Linux CGI --Networksolutions
Why on earth can't you change your host? That's why we have domain names - so we can FIRE bad web hosts!! That's too bad, as hosting with domain provider is not usually a good idea, these guys especially. I have a particular dislike for 'Netsol', who from the start didn't like losing their monopoly on domains and refused to modernize and streamline the process, then turned to predatory techniques for a while to rope in unsuspecting domain holders from other registrars. Hello, you domain xxx is expiring, you should renew now .. not telling the hapless owners (who may not be web savvy) that the domain is actually registered with someone else. The real information was hidden in fine print. And they continue to overcharge for what is basically an automated operation. $36/year/domain? Give me a break. Below is the reply I got from Networksolutions. I had asked them to check the error logs (I don't have access) to see which libraries are missing for rev to work. We have reviewed your CGI scripts and it appears you are attempting to use a custom CGI add-in called RevZilla. This is not a standard library for CGI and we can not install this library to the server at this time. I can't change my hosting service. So, I'm more or less stuck.

As far as I understand you (from the above-quoted lines) this functionality is very similar to the search concept implemented in my Topsearch tool that is able to search all visible and even hidden fields of a stack, counts and lists all occurrences of a string - that can consist of any number of adjacent words, colorizes the searchstring in all found lines, displays the address of the field, and provides the possibility to display a chosen whole field (from the address) where also all occurrences of the searchstring are hilited etc. (http://www.sanke.org/Software/Topsearch.zip) See below the full description of the stack from the information field. - In order to be retain, a card should include alls the words or phrases written by the user (in other words, I would like an implied AND, not an OR.

On the other hand searching with offset is really lightning-fast, even for a greater number of fields in an stack. But it is really worth-while to try out the various offset functions eventually. Regards, Wilhelm Sanke P.S.: Here is the text of the information field of the Topstack tool: This stack searches all visible and hidden fields on all cards of the current topstack or the stacks of the Revolution Documentation up to Rev version 2.2. (for higher versions you need my tool searchdocs_XML; see my website www.sanke.org/MetaMedia). The search routine uses the lineOffset function to search for *any* searchstring, which means it does not explicitly search for words or items. The searchstring layer would also display all lines that contain player, so if you are searching only for layer press the spacebar once before typing layer into the dialog. The stacks of the Revolution Documentation need not be open; they are then opened by the search. The results are listed with the searchstring colorized and the addresses of the found fields. Hidden fields are indicated. Clicking at the address brings up the card of the topstack with the found fields. The clicked address line is then colorized green and a button show full text of field appears.This button allows to open a field at the bottom of the stack that displays the complete formatted text of the selected field - again with all instances of the searchstring colorized. This may be especially helpful also when dealing with hidden fields. If several stacks are open, this search stack recognizes which of these stacks is the topstack when you perform a search. As the searchstring is stored in the dialog, you can quickly search several stacks for the same string when you make them the respective topstack by clicking at a stack. ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

On 1/27/06 1:18 PM, André.Bisseret [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I would like to be able to find not only words but also phrases. For searching phrases and combinations of words, the following questions: ?? is the text fixed like a reference book, or updated a on a periodic basis, which would allow pre-indexing important phrases (I am I said, It is not for me to say,pre-building an index is fun, fast, and fulfilling) This way the user could find hits to be words or phrases, or both, that have the same lineOffset You could pre-build an array of line-number occurrences of each word, then filter out the occurrences that are not the same for each word resulting in a list of inclusive hits (words on the same line regardless of order). This has the advantage of being updated at the end of each word the user enters (apple , apple orange , apple orange pear [note the space at the end of each]) becomes a progressively smaller list of hits. ?? could the contents of all the fields be written to one structured or tagged text file, then that file is loaded into a variable that is searched for phrases. ?? are matches across lines possible (that is the phrase occurs on line 2 to 3 of a field) so that returns will be embedded in the result string. Also applies to hyphenated words, quoted expressions, phrases with commas, etc. ?? could you convert all spaces to a non-breaking space (a) in the fields the user sees, the fields the user types into (b) a second version of the text fields that have spaces converted to some character that allows entire phrase matching (the_lazy_brown_fox slept in next to the little_brown_jug) ?? would it be easier to collect the hit lines into one result field shown in a sub stack and then let the user choose. A substack would allow the user to view the MainStack while clicking the results substack. Also, the user could create a second card in the substack which would show a different search, or AND its search with the previous card result list. Just not sure what your objective is for whoever builds the text fields and whoever uses the stack. It would help if I knew the source of the text (eg. web pages, medical reference, user entries, technical manuals, short stories, news feeds) It would be cool to know how you solve your challenge.

Re: Phomenes
One thing I've become aware of is that, even without phoneme editing, many commercially available voices [English at least - don't know about others] 'speak' better than the voices included with the OS you're using, whether Mac or Windows.

In particular, - find string user interface will find the entire phrase, even if it is embedded inside other words - for example, it will find newuser interface. - find whole user interface will find the entire phrase, but only as whole words - it will find user interface, but not newuser interface. -- jeanne a. e. devoto ~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.jaedworks.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Re: OT- Quicktime Failure on Windows -- Testers needed!
Hi Katir, Do the (win platform) player work if you start it manually on clicking, in the QT controler, the start player arrow ? In others words, could the problem have to do with the fourth line of your button script ?
