I would recommend using a "send in time" command - gives the
'exitField'/'closeField' time to complete before the dialog is displayed.
BTW, 'exitField' is sent only when there are NO changes in the field;
'closeField' is sent when there ARE changes, so that's the one you probably
want to trap. Anyway, here's what I mean:

on exitField
 if field "score" < 90
 then
   send "TooLow" to me in 20 milliseconds
 end if
end exitField

on TooLow
 answer information "The total score must be 90 or higher before a
computation can be completed."
 focus on field "ach"
 delete the selection
end TooLow

I have run into a nagging problem with controlling data entry by the

used the following code to limit input to three numbers:

on keyDown pkey
   if pKey is in "1234567890" and the number of chars of target <4  
then

pass keydown
end keyDown

I also use the following script in the sext entry field to make sure  
that

the user enters a score of 90 or higher:

on exitField
if field "score" < 90
then
 answer information "The total score must be 90 or higher  
before a

computation can be completed."
 focus on field "ach"
 delete the selection
end if
end exitField

The problem arises when I am testing the program. It will provide a  
dialog
when a number less than 90 is entered in the text field as expected.  
But
sometimes it will NOT let me enter a number or go to the next  
field!  I have
tried deleting the focus and the selection from the code but that  
did not

work either.

On several occasions, I have to force quit Rev because changing from  
browse

to edit mode did not solve the problem.

I am using Rev 2.9 on a Mac. I have autoTab checked. The field is not
locked. Is there a better code to check for numeric entry and  
monitor the

entry of certain values in a text entry field?

Re: Looking for USB remote control ...

[Randall Lee Reetz]

Jack,

I use AirClick remote.  Then download and install the Proxy event  
editor.  You can use the Proxy editor to turn AirClick remote button  
clicks to keyboard stroke events.  Then capture these keystrokes with  
your xTalk handlers... and you are in business.  I don't know what  
the range is of the AirClick devise.  There is another USB devise  
event re-director called USBOverdrive.  It might accept more  
devises.  So long as you can get devise button events sent as  
keystrokes, you can capture these with runrev handlers.

runrev adds http header for free?

[Bert Shuler]

I wanted to write a quick http server, mostly just to learn rev.

It was very easy, and I am happy so far, but I have a mystery I hope  
someone can help me with.

My code is here: http://www.mediafire.com/?jbldjj0ogck

 It seems that when I write the data back out to to the socket,  
runrev adds a http header on its own, and I cant add the one I want.

Really weird.

When I have it execute this perl script, you can see the problem:

#!/usr/bin/perl

 print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
 print "\n";
 foreach $key (sort keys(%ENV)) {
print "$key = $ENV{$key}";
 }

Also, I am open to advice on my coding, but please if it is bashing  
me, send that directly to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Bert,

Maybe I don't understand what is going on without looking at your  
code. At which point do you see unwanted http headers? When you write  
data to perl or when you read the data into rev? Is it possible that  
Perl adds the headers, since you're using "print "Content-type: text/ 
html\n\n";"? Maybe you want "print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";".

The header written by perl shows as html in the browser, because rev

Re: runrev adds http header for free?

[Mark Smith]

Could it be that the browser is expecting 2 crlfs after the header,  
while 2 lfs are all that's being written?


Even if the perl script is producing crlfs, Rev tends to convert  
crlfs to lfs unless you specifically prevent it.


Perhaps it would help if you inserted the line:

replace lf with crlf in buffer

before writing it out to the socket.

I'm fairly sure that Rev would not be adding spurious headers - I  
think it's only  libUrl that would have that capability, and I'm sure  
it's better behaved than that, even if it's installed in your cgi setup.


Best,

Mark

Even if the perl script is producing crlfs, Rev tends to convert  
crlfs to lfs unless you specifically prevent it.


Perhaps it would help if you inserted the line:

replace lf with crlf in buffer

before writing it out to the socket.

I'm fairly sure that Rev would not be adding spurious headers - I  
think it's only  libUrl that would have that capability, and I'm  
sure it's better behaved than that, even if it's installed in your  
cgi setup.


Best,

Mark

Hi Bert,

Maybe I don't understand what is going on without looking at your

possible that Perl adds the headers, since you're using "print

Multi-dimensional arrays explained..

[Chipp Walters]

Trevor's got a SUPER write-up on the new m-dim arrays in Rev 3.0 in the
latest newsletter. I encourage everyone to read it as it explains in a
simple way and in great detail how to use them. Plus, he throws in a stack
which can convert XML to Rev 3's m-dim arrays and back. Very cool and mucho
thanks to Trevor for taking the time to share with us all.

do httpheaders and httpproxy reset after handler ends?

Hello Friends,

a quick question, anyone knows how persistent is httpproxy and
httpheaders? I want to know if I need to set them everytime or if
setting them on openstack will be enough for all subsequent URL calls.

Thanks
PS: Yes, I could sniff that with wireshark, but I felt like asking...

RE: Looking for USB remote control ...

[Randall Reetz]

Jack, if you purchace a cheap wireless game controller, you can take it appart 
and solder some micro sswitches to the ic board where the contact switches 
touch.  There were something like 19 switches on the one i took appart, plus 
some analog switches and directional ones as well.  You can build some pretty 
good input device prototypes on the fast and loose. Again, i dont know about 
the range.  That depends on the com medium used with your controller (wifi, IR, 
bluetooth, etc.).  I once tried to find a wireless numeric or functionkey 
keypad... That would be perfect.  Ill bet if you got on a stage craft or movie 
special effects user group you could get some ideas.  What about the 
multi-channel RC controllers hobbiests use with their model airplains... i'll 
bet there are some cheap ones out there used in the low-end toy-crossover 
market.  Nerd heaven.

Jack,

I use AirClick remote.  Then download and install the Proxy event  
editor.  You can use the Proxy editor to turn AirClick remote button  
clicks to keyboard stroke events.  Then capture these keystrokes with  
your xTalk handlers... and you are in business.  I don't know what  
the range is of the AirClick devise.  There is another USB devise  
event re-director called USBOverdrive.  It might accept more  
devises.  So long as you can get devise button events sent as  
keystrokes, you can capture these with runrev handlers.

Re: do httpheaders and httpproxy reset after handler ends?

[Pierre Sahores]

Andre,

I don't have idea about what is the best with the httpproxy part of  
your question.


About the httpheaders, in my experience (both MC and Rev http  
clients), it's always a good precaution to set the httpheaders again  
before each new occurence of a POST command.


See this transcript-based pgdump trigger function (PostgreSQL database  
backup) as a for years running production state example :


function newdbpgdump d,p
 put "&tdSQL=" & urlencode(reagenc(p)) into larequete
  put "doSQL=632&toTDB=" & d & larequete & "&IDC=" &  
encefv1("pierres") & "&VAL=" & encefv1("roussilles") into retour
  set httpheaders to "Content-type: application/x-www-form- 
urlencoded" & return

  post retour to url (line 1 of fld "revwas")
  if it is "" then
answer "La connexion avec le serveur distant est rompue." &  
return & return & \

"Vérifiez votre configuration d'accès à l'internet"
exit to top
  else return word 1 to -1 of it & return & return
end newdbpgdump

Hope this can help,

Best,

Re: Looking for USB remote control ...

[Randall Lee Reetz]

 Check out this IR USB remote (lots of buttons).  Though it is IR  
and probably needs line of sight to USB port key fob (site doesn't  
talk to range issue).


http://www.bikudo.com/product_search/details/2238/ 
usb_multi_remote_controller_rc_q105.html


I have been looking for RC controller to USB RC receiver solution...  
nothing so far. The advantage of RC (over local wireless like wifi,  
bluetooth and IR) is much longer range (up to a mile or two).

Re: do httpheaders and httpproxy reset after handler ends?

[Jim Ault]

My limited experience is that the browser name space on the client computer
retains the headers and variables until the user does something like a
refresh that would update the header data.  This would be the case with
either the GET or POST methods.

Also, using  tags might not work as expected due to scope issues if
your 'page' is inside those tags.

Jim Ault

PS  Andre, I sent you an email directly about 12 hours ago and it could be
that it did not get to you.  Let me know.

channel Radio Control (RC) receiver with USB port.  There are plenty  
of solutions that go the other way (to control RC servos from your  
PC).  I'll bet my snooping around on this issue has put me on a few  
FBI and HomeLand Security lists.  Controlling a PC from a mile away  
presents some formidable security risks.  There are phone and cell  
phone controller solutions (control your PC via phone calls).  I once  
witnessed the result of a devastating crash when a 400 lb. model RC  
airplane (with a Volkswagen engine!) that resulted when two RC  
consoles were using the same frequency (there are a limited number of  
channels) at the same time.  That was a long time ago.  I don't know  
if the RC protocol has been modernized to a signature secured digital  
signal with a packet sending scheme.  If so, there would be less  
danger of signal crossover.  On the other hand, packet protocol com  
channels are notoriously bad for real time control (its is one thing  
if your love letter takes a few seconds to arrive, quite another if  
your remote vehicle doesn't turn right to avoid a mountain its left.

 Check out this IR USB remote (lots of buttons).  Though it is IR  
and probably needs line of sight to USB port key fob (site doesn't  
talk to range issue).

I have been looking for RC controller to USB RC receiver  
solution... nothing so far. The advantage of RC (over local  
wireless like wifi, bluetooth and IR) is much longer range (up to a  
mile or two).

Jack, if you purchace a cheap wireless game controller, you can  
take it appart and solder some micro sswitches to the ic board  
where the contact switches touch.  There were something like 19  
switches on the one i took appart, plus some analog switches and  
directional ones as well.  You can build some pretty good input  
device prototypes on the fast and loose. Again, i dont know about  
the range.  That depends on the com medium used with your  
controller (wifi, IR, bluetooth, etc.).  I once tried to find a  
wireless numeric or functionkey keypad... That would be perfect.   
Ill bet if you got on a stage craft or movie special effects user  
group you could get some ideas.  What about the multi-channel RC  
controllers hobbiests use with their model airplains... i'll bet  
there are some cheap ones out there used in the low-end toy- 
crossover market.  Nerd heaven.

Jack,

I use AirClick remote.  Then download and install the Proxy event
editor.  You can use the Proxy editor to turn AirClick remote button
clicks to keyboard stroke events.  Then capture these keystrokes with
your xTalk handlers... and you are in business.  I don't know what
the range is of the AirClick devise.  There is another USB devise
event re-director called USBOverdrive.  It might accept more
devises.  So long as you can get devise button events sent as
keystrokes, you can capture these with runrev handlers.

Hi all!

I am looking for a programmable USB device that will allow me to
designate up to six different buttons that will send mouse clicks
to certain places on the screen. We do a lot with multimedia, and
we want to give a user the option of using the remote in a large
classroom to go to the next video, rewind the video, stop the video
etc. There are buttons on the screen to accomplish that ... I just
want the user to be able to stand 50 feet away with a remote. Am I
dreaming?

All help will be appreciated!

Thank you,
