Colin Holgate will reproduce a demo he gave recently, where he use LiveCode to scrape a web page for information on the video clips on that page, and used the information to make a set of cards, one for each video clip. In addition, he will show how he used LiveCode to take rows and columns from a spreadsheet, and convert the data into xml.

Hi everybody

Please consider presenting, contact me or Mark Schonewille with any idea considering the event. I have also updated the "participate" page, to include some topics that people have voiced interest in.

As for the current event, Andreas showed a tutorial of epic length, it was about his native iOS control kit. He also has put up a temporary download page for the beta; send him feedback if you try it out!

Colin unfortunately had a very weird problem, where the stream would suddenly show upside down when he tried to play a QT movie in LC. Nonetheless, it was an applauded presentation, showcasing a table to xml conversion utility, and a way to get all movies from a homepage and show them on cards. It seems you all like to hear about these smallish one shot tools that everyone creates?
