World: r3wp

I remember seeing a script that did this once, but I don't remember 
which script it was. One of Carl's perhaps.

build-pack.r from the library seems to be just what I need.

No, I don't think build-pack.r will work either, as it would have 
to download all the data with the script before the slideshow would 
start.

I have one other idea.

Sweet success!  It now works perfectly running under Cheyenne on 
my local machine. Now for testing on a remote server.

Thank you Dockimbel! Cheyenne made this possible.

Thanks also to Anton, who always helps me through the difficult parts.

Louis, no problem. Glad I could help you.

Can someone at RT update the plugin test page http://www.rebol.net/plugin/tests/test.html

Anyone know how to set the footers, and headers for printing using 
the plugin ?

Since IE7 always opens a new window on browse/only, I wonder if I 
can use the plugin to setup a little server to control IE behaviour.

so, this little server waits for commands, and then either browses 
to the required page in an iframe, or, opens up a new tab and puts 
the page there.

What do people think?

rebol windowing system using the plugin http://www.timwylie.com/files/ros/ros.html

that's pretty neat!

the main test page for the plugin doesn't work, but this does http://www.rebol.net/plugin/tests/double.html

Anyone know if it is possible to get the rebol plugin to cause the 
browser to navigate to another page.

In javascript this is done using window.open(), or window.location=(url)

There might be a way, but probably you can't rely on this technique, 
with browser security being what it is.

and this is?

I'm sorry, I don't know, just making the point that perhaps you shouldn't 
rely on this method.

Just installed FF2 and the plugin still works.

That's a good sign.

Need some assistance in running the plugin from Opera9

After installing what do I have to do next

Do any of the demos work?  ( http://www.compkarori.com/reb/) is 
a working demo ...

many of the existing demos don't work.

thanks Graham that does work

but you are right the other demos on the rebol site don't work

yea dont work for me either

doesnt*

they are written for the earlier plugins

stupid questions... does current plugin allow us to access files 
and save out?  (using file browser or not)

anyon can tell me how I can fix a web page containing a rebol plugin, 
so it detects the vertical size properly?

do-browser "document.getElementById('REBOL').offsetHeight" in firefox 
returns 19 !!

sorry, DAMN CTRL-S reset again:

do-browser "document.getElementById('REBOL').offsetHeight"

in IE returns proper height, in firefox 2.x I get 19

try to use just .height

Use Firebug to inspect which DOM properties give you the correct 
height...

talking about saving files in the plugin... I did a simple (very) 
test... 

rebol [] write %test.txt "test"

ran that in the browser and then did a full disk search and I never 
found One file named test.txt  :-(

reading seems to be ok... but not writing.

try a    alert mold what-dir

there is no linux-plugin :(

IIRC It was argued, that it would be too easy to make DOS attacks 
... 
ex: 


loop 100000 [loop 10000000 [write/append %dos-attack.txt "1234567890"]

(talking about file writing)

hmm.  did not explore that far.

but if the plugin had a properties page, we could allow some scripts 
domains or ip addresses specific rights.  all set to off by default. 
 and all prefs values encrypted when saved of sent to registry, so 
that no virii or other nasty can allow its site to run unhindered.

This would be in the intent where people develop internal apps and 
deploy them through the intranet... in such cases file access would 
be acceptible.

Yes, and simply restrict the filesize. Or  better use an virtual 
filesystem, like a  zip.
