I have a field "theWord", into which letters are added. If a mistake is made upon entry, the user is able to delete the last character of the field by clicking on a button that contains the script found below... or by employing the option key at the same time the user can clear the whole field. The problem I have is that the first time I click on the button, a character is deleted, but the second time I click on the button then there is no response, until I click for a third time.
I must point out that the cursor does not leave the rect of the button during these clicks. on mouseUp if the optionKey is "down" then put empty into fld "theWord" exit mouseUp end if put the number of chars of fld "theWord" into charCount put char 1 to (charCount -1) of fld "theWord" into fld "theWord" end mouseUp Any ideas why it does not work everytime ? regards John Dixon _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
