Who can help me with this simple problem? When using the code below, you can't trigger the mouseUp. But when quoting line 2,3,4 you can, so I need to know how to quote a variable. Thanks!

Code: Select all

"on mouseUp" & cr & \
"put directoryAZ into cardNumberHolder" & cr & \
"put" && tChildTitles[getID] && "into titleHolder" & cr & \
"put" && tLink[getID] && "into linkURL" & cr & \
"go to card 46" & cr & \
"end mouseUp" into theScript
      
---------
set the script of button ("link" & x) to theScript
---------

Hi Chris,

ChrisMukrow wrote:so I need to know how to quote a variable.

well you already wrote it:

Code: Select all

...
put QUOTE & tVar & QUOTE into tQuotedVar
...

I have a little function for this:

Code: Select all

function q tString
  return QUOTE & tString & QUOTE
end q

Code: Select all

...
put q(tVar) into tQuotedVar
...

Best

Klaus
