shows first "Building classes" and then for a brief moment "Building

You could try to use (respects UCI word boundaries):
if the num of trueWords in myString is 0

I wonder if the 202 value would disappear if you did this:
put textDecode(the clipboarddata["text"], "utf8") into field 1
I don't know the answer, just putting it out there.

I use “the number of words in myString = 0” to test whether a line of text
appears empty, since I want a line with only space characters to be understood
as empty.
But a line of text I pasted from elsewhere contained an invisible character
whose charToNum value is 202, and this was counted as a
That is precisely why we are having this conversation. An assumption was
made that creating an HTML version of plain text was needed for the
clipboard.

Non- starter. Can't make assumptions about the end user's intent. What if what
he was copying was SUPPOSED to have double line breaks or carriage returns? The
complaint would be that LC was taking liberties with user's data!

The last one is possible. As far as substacks getting moved and breaking
references, the Standalone Builder takes that into account I believe. Also, if
the stack files are contained in the folder the SB creates for them, I
*believe* that the engine will upon failing to find a stack reference, ch
If the script of an object is running, the stack it belongs to is open. If you
reference an object in a closed stack (correct me if I am wrong) LC will load
the stack the object belongs to into memory.

So there are 2 issues with how LiveCode is handling placing text onto the

- converting plain text to HTML on the clipboard
- using tags for each line break when converting to HTML
I’m not sure of the reasoning behind the first issue. I understand wanting

Definitely stealing your functions thx. :)
Oh, as to the OP, my first thought on why it wasn't working, is that the
stack wasn't open (hence the need to address it's on disk location), but
another thought occurred to me. I'm wonde

Hi list,
I have several server-side LC scripts that transform text and data
uploaded by end users on web pages into xml to be stored in a database and
used later in other web pages or apps.
The problem is, despite all the correction scripts I have added, that
sometimes the uploaded content corrupts
Sorry, forgot to change Subject in previous posting...
Hi Richard
I found this problem was particularly annoying when trying to extract info from
vCards exported from Contacts on the Mac, so I developed a tiny app in LC
called vCardClipper.
I've put together a web page about this app together
