Hi, I'm downloading a list of words of 9 characters from a MySQL database using a PHP script and a put URL command in a LiveCode script. Altogether, there are approximately 10000 lines in my list, with one word on each line.
Both the PHP script and the LiveCode script run on Mac OS X. I use a put URL command in my LiveCode script, such as put url "http://localhost/~user/list.php"; The relevant part of the PHP script is: $q="SELECT xword FROM ydatabase"; $r=mysql_query($q); if (!$r) { echo 'An error occurred: '.mysql_error(); } else { while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($r)) { echo "$row[0]\n"; } } Exactly every 8001 bytes (or 889 words, which are all different), I get some garbage: 1f41 AAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAB [889 times] AAAAAAAAC 1f41 AAAAAAAAP AAAAAAAAQ [889 times] AAAAAAAAR etc etc etc BBBBBBBBX 1e7d The garbage is often the same but not always and it appears before the first line and after the last line. I have tried several combinations of the content-type and content-transfer-encoding headers in PHP. I have also tried changing the encoding of the PHP script itself. If I call the same URL from CURL and pipe the output to a text file or if I open the URL in a browser, I don't see any garbage: AAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAB [889 times] AAAAAAAAC AAAAAAAAP AAAAAAAAQ [889 times] AAAAAAAAR etc etc etc BBBBBBBBX Does anyone have an idea what causes LiveCode to add garbage to my list? -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Use Color Converter to convert CMYK, RGB, RAL, XYZ, H.Lab and other colour spaces. http://www.color-converter.com _______________________________________________ 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
