Tutorial - MacAddict Forum Reader on RevJournal Website - Webpage Won't Open
Just got Rev3 about 2 weeks ago...so just getting started Found Sarah's tutorial - MacAddict Forum Reader on RevJournal website. Tried tutorial, but so far not getting web page to open... on mouseUp show image Busy put field Address into tAddress load URL tAddress with message processWebPage end mouseUp I notice that it uses command load URL, while in RunRev's beginning tutorial video, they use 'revGoURL'... although checked Dictionary and it says 'revGoURL' is now deprecated.. ;-) Have tried both but neither are opening up a browser window after clicking the Load button... I did get browser window to open when trying Rev's beginning tutorial using revGoURL¹ So can't figure out what's wrong...any suggestions??? Thanks for any help!

You can make a stub handler to route revGoURL to the new launch URL command - just add this to the stack script: on revGoUrl pUrl launch url pUrl end revGoURL I'm surprised Rev hasn't maintained compatibility for their handler, but Sarah, if you have time to update that tutorial stack just send it to me at your convenience and I'll replace the one at revJournal.com. -- Richard Gaskin Managing Editor, revJournal ___ Rev tips, tutorials and more: http://www.revJournal.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

You could comment that portion out, but maybe even better to just replace the call to revGoURL with the launch url command right in the mouseUp handler. -- Richard Gaskin Managing Editor, revJournal ___ Rev tips, tutorials and more: http://www.revJournal.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

The real problem is that MacAddict is no more. It has morphed into Mac|Life, lost all it's enthusiasm and become boring as well as filled with ads for Sony Vista. Having been a MacAddict subscriber since issue 1, this was very sad to see and I did not renew my subscription. Anyway, I will need to re-write the scripts to use the Mac|Life forums instead of the MacAddict ones. The base address has changed but so has the structure of the page. One I have done that, I will send it to Richard for the revJournal site and notify people on the list. One other issue is that the load command does not go to your browser the way revGoURL or launch does. It just loads the HTML source into memory, and when it is finished, it goes to the specified callback handler, if one has been specified. If this was all working, you would just see a list of forum names appear on the left. Then you would be able to click on one of them to see a list of sub-forums names.

Cheers, Sarah Thanks so much for your help with this and your tutorial, Sarah! Meanwhile, didn't realize that tutorial is only written for MacAddict forum. I was trying to use another forum's web address that I visit often. So, would be great as long as you're updating tutorial to add some comments regarding getting this to work with other forums if that's not too much trouble.

Thanks so much for your help with this and your tutorial, Sarah! Meanwhile, didn't realize that tutorial is only written for MacAddict forum. I was trying to use another forum's web address that I visit often. So, would be great as long as you're updating tutorial to add some comments regarding getting this to work with other forums if that's not too much trouble. Here is my basic method: - in your browser, load the page listing the forum categories and forum names. - look at the source for this page and work out a method of identifying the category forum names, most likely a class name or id. - use my script for loading the page into memory, but edit the processWebPage script to use the identifiers you found, the same way my script for the MacAddict page used cattitle and forumlink I can't really give specific instructions because each web page is structured differently. You just have to look at the raw source and script accordingly.
