Sarah For web content serving, there are actually 3 different things being specified in this thread. UPDATING THE SAME PAGE, REDIRECT, LOCATION I think the bottom of this post has the answer you probably want to use. UPDATING THE SAME PAGE - sending HTML tags and content to be displayed in the current browser window If the user does 'reload' or 'refresh', the original content will be re-displayed since the browser still thinks it is focused on the original url. The new content does not change the browser history since there has been no real navigation as far as the browser is concerned. http://www.runrev.com"; put it ?> REDIRECT - tells the browser to keep the current url in history, but now focus on a new url This is commonly used to keep old links stored out on the internet working, but 'bounce' to new web pages or url. This gets a little complicated when you break down the different meanings of a url. http://someDomain.com/ or http://www.someDomain.com/ or http://someDomain.com/index.html -- will simply show the default page for the domain http://someDomain.com/aboutus.html or http://someDomain.com/aboutus.php or http://someDomain.com/aboutus.cgi or http://someDomain.com/aboutus.irev -- will simply show the page for that location http://someDomain.com/aboutus.html#drivingMapSection http://someDomain.com/aboutus.php#drivingMapSection http://someDomain.com/aboutus.cgii#drivingMapSection http://someDomain.com/aboutus.irev#drivingMapSection -- will show the page and scroll to the anchor named http://someDomain.com/aboutus.html?loc=homeOffice xx no http://someDomain.com/aboutus.php?loc=homeOffice http://someDomain.com/aboutus.cgi?loc=homeOffice http://someDomain.com/aboutus.irev?loc=homeOffice -- will show the page with info that a script provides by using the variable 'loc' with the value "homeOffice" The exact data sent back to the browser depends on the script programming NOTE: PHP and irev and cgi cause scripts to run on the server, but HTML does not, so sending variables. The reason scripts are run is that Apache has been told when it started that those 3 strings mean that Apache should follow its directives and run the correct script engine. At this time, the only server that knows about irev is the On-Rev system, thus irev scripts cannot be run on other systems. The On-Rev server knows how to run scripts using PHP, cgi, as well as irev. LOCATION - This is probably what you were looking for - change the Browser's memory variable that causes the browser to focus on the new url, keeping the original url in history, and reloading the new url. What you probably want to accomplish is sending a raw HTTP header to the browser. More details here [ http://php.net/manual/en/function.header.php Possible headers to send to a browser Their are two kinds, Request (from browser) to instruct the Apache server Accept-Language: da Authorization: Basic QWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ== Response (from server) to instruct the browser Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Location: http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/People.html Refresh: 5; url=http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/People.html (refresh the same url after 5 seconds) Set-Cookie: UserID=JohnDoe; Max-Age=3600; Version=1 (store data on the user's hard drive) (but it expires in 3600 seconds, 60 minutes) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_headers and specifically HTTP_location discussed here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_location so in irev you would --*** http://www.www.runrev.com"; after sendResponse put sendResponse -- back to browser that started the dialog ?> --*** Just to let you know, REDIRECTION issues are much more complex This is a good overview... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL_redirection Bottom line for your specific task, use the scripting just belo

Re: OT: Parallels or VMWare Fusion?
There was a recent review on the web of Parallels, Fusion and the freebie one - forget the name. Parallels was judged the quickest. I have Fusion on one Mac, using the Bootcamp (Apple's scheme for running Windows) partition. Parallels on another machine (same speed CPU) using its own install of WinXP, not Bootcamp. I don't notice much of a difference in speed when running apps, but Parallels is much, much faster at start up and shut down. Not sure if that is the result of using/not using the Bootcamp partition, but because of that I like Parallels a lot better.

Re: Smoothly moving a jpeg
Scott, Thanks - shortening the changes in distance helped a lot. So it appears Rev doesn't visibly move an image, it jumps it to the next location. If I move the image a pixel at a time, but tighten the loop to 2 or 3 milliseconds, things get pretty smooth. Now to test the reading speed with the on camera talent! Tim Selander Tokyo, Japan Scott Rossi wrote: snip well moving large images. That said, I would try to repeatedly set the position of the image with short changes in distance in a tight "send..." loop. Here's a simple example: on mouseUp moveImage end mouseUp on moveImage if right of img 1 < 10 then exit moveImage set left of img 1 to (left of img 1 - 2) send "moveImage" to me in 5 millisecs end moveImage This makes for substantial processor use, but also makes for smoother move effects. Another option I would try is to move the physical position of the stack in which the image appears across the desktop, instead of moving the image snip ___ 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
Smoothly moving a jpeg
Thanks to all who replied to my question on interrupting a loop with keyboard input, that was an interesting thread. The next thing I'm trying to do is take a jpeg of vertical, right to left Japanese text and move it smoothly across the window at reading speed for a teleprompter app. I'm using the "move image" command. The result is a little to jerky and stuttery. Does Rev have a smoother way to animate/move images on the screen?

Re: interrupting a repeat loop
Works great; that's just the thing I was looking for! Thank you. Tim Selander Tokyo, Japan Jacques Hausser wrote: Hi Tim it depends of the kind of loop you are using. Several possibilities For example in a card script: local stoploop command runTheLoop repeat forever if stoploop = "S" then exit repeat -- do what you want wait 10 milliseconds with message end repeat end runTheLoop on keyDown thekey put thekey into stoploop end keydown The "wait x milliseconds with message" is the important trick here.

interrupting a repeat loop
Is there any way in RR to check for user input during a repeat loop? I'd like a loop to continue until the user types a certain key -- at which point the script would exit the handler.

Re: Newbie question
Hi all, Thanks for the various tips. The searching from the RevMedia help menu did not work. It said something about building indexes, failed and now it will search nothing. However I did find the Nabble forum, and will now give Richard Gaskin's program a try...

On your Revolution menu, go to Help -> Revolution Search Engine and on the second tab over from the left you can select Gmane, Mail Archive or Nable and perform your searches right from the Search Engine. There are also many other resources available from the Search Engine. Oddly enough the database update in RevStudio 4 (Mac) didn't work, leaving me with an unusable Search Engine. Same "poo" with Ubuntu (both RevStudio and RevMedia) Didn't have that problem with RevMedia 4 (Mac). Too "fried and crispy" after that to bother firing up the XP box to see "what gives" over there. My personal experience is that Richard Gaskin's "4W_RevListSearch.rev" is the best bet!
