The workaround uses the post command via javascript (not via LC) and works.
I don't know how to implement a feedback on the success of the posting process, though.

Re: TIP: How to resize the stack with the window
This might be a bit annoying while working on the app in the LiveCode IDE and running the stack there, though ... So make sure to disable the code snippet there or to set the fullscreen to false again at some point. You could do something like this to alleviate some of the annoyance: on openStack i...

Re: TIP: How to resize the stack with the window
Hi CuriousOne, I struggled with the exact same issue when I tried to have my HTML5 app adjusted to the browser window. For making the HTML5 app always fill the browser window proportionally I found that adding the following to the stack script helps: on openStack set the fullscreenmode of me to "let...

Re: Problems with HTML5 standalone (psychology experiment)
Some news: 2) I've now also tried around a bit with the POST solution. I included some code in my LC app to post the text file and I created a PHP file for the server (which is most likely the weak link, since I have no experience with server side stuff and PHP at all). I ended up with the followin...

Ouch . . . - Screenshot 2020-10-07 at 19.53.11.png - Here's a thought . . . Check out " mimeEncodeAsMIMEEmail " in the Documentation. 8) As far as I understand this one you just prepare the email/data for sending with the tsNetSmtpSync function, which according to the dictionary is not available fo...

Re: Problems with HTML5 standalone (psychology experiment)
Thanks a lot! I managed to send the results in an email to myself with this from the app run in the LC IDE. I will try now from the HTML5 app. It's maybe not optimal that an email client needs to be opened so that the participant needs to click on "send", though. I also know some people who don't u...

Sorry for the delayed reply ...richmond62 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 01, 2020 6:29 pmWhy not have the results posted in a text file to your email address?
That is actually a very good idea, too.
However, how would I do this?
Would you send me some code fragment that would do this job?
It would be highly appreciated!

Re: Problems with HTML5 standalone (psychology experiment)
Does this app specifically need to be confined in a browser? Will it be used multiple times, or just once? The app is a behavioural experiment that is part of a psychological study. I need around 110 participants to do the experiment to complete my study. Due to Corona I switched to the online solu...

Re: Problems with HTML5 standalone (psychology experiment)
Thanks for your helpful remarks, jacque! (plain ugly :D) That is because the HTML project has stalled and is only "half-cooked": I suggest you start barracking the LiveCode people directly about that as there isn't much that the end-users can manage until they sort things out. No. Any OS that isn't ...

Hello everyone, I appreciate the help that is provided here a lot and now I need to ask some questions I haven't found in this forum so far. I am completely new to LiveCode and have only little prior experience with coding (basic MATLAB and R; however, almost no HTML or JavaScript). I will love to a...
