Goal: to get a folder a disk that can be copied to the web server. We have all kinds of files on disk. So, I am trying to copy a list of filename in the cards of stack. It can't that hard. But I think the method for doing the tRelativeName of filename is "broken" where are get the defaultFolder.
So I tried this. As it as simple as revCopyFile (as I discovered in that dictionary) But this don't work! on mouseUp local tImageName, tDestinationPath, tDefaultFolder get the effective filename of this stack set the itemdelimiter to "/" put item 1 to -2 of it into tDefaultFolder set the defaultFolder to tDefaultFolder put the defaultFolder # it appears correct --put the filename of img "slideImage" into tImageName put "ellora /DC123344.jpg" into tImageName put "_ForWebSite" into tDestinationPath revCopyFile tImageName, tDestinationPath end mouseup # I'm against the wall on this! ____________ # but directed at your attempt did not work # as expected, no file was written # a new attempt at your email was expecting # but the defaultFolder was entirely different! on mouseUp local tRelativeURL set the itemdelimiter to "/" put (the item -2 to -1 of the filename of img "slideimage" ) into tRelativeURL # this works is: there is a path # 1-ellora/dsc1234.jpg # this will work Set the defaultFolder to item 1 to -3 of the filename of img "slideimage" put the defaultFolder # a defaultFolder appeared that was older put URL("binfile:" & tRelativeURL ) into URL("binfile:_ForWebSite/"& tRelativeURL) end mouseUp Pi Digital wrote: I’ll try that again:: # I’m going to assume this was a hiccup too and now fixed: set the filename of img “slideimage” to (item 1 to -3 of the filename of img “slideimage” & “/_ForWebSite/” & tRelativeURL) > On 6 Sep 2020, at 23:01, Pi Digital via use-livecode <use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > > # I’m going to assume this was a hiccup too and now fixed: > set the filename of img “slideimage” to URL(“binfile:_ForWebSite/” & tRelativeURL) _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
