World: r3wp

but if the client is doing internal work, he can set the proxy manually 
no?  and in this case the plugin works?

I checked some older discussions, and it seems you can place user.r 
into Sandbox dir. The trouble is, I can't find it right now, as it 
changed in latest plug-in incarnation :-) Will try at home ...

Did the plug-in ever get finished?

There is a 2.6.2 release that doesn't say "Beta" on it, but I don't 
know if that qualifies, as there may still be some issues, depending 
on how you want to use it. I'm using it, knowing there are limitations.

I want to use it to show a narrated slide presentation on my web 
site. Can it safely be used for that?

I haven't used sound in it, but a slideshow should be safe. If you 
already have a desktop version of the app, it should be easy enough 
to set up a page to try it under the plugin.

Thanks, Gregg. As soon as I can find time, I'll try to get it to 
work.

the plugin version i used wasnt the good one for the demo on the 
site, but i could use the chat on compkarori.  Can someone tell me 
how much version of the plugin exists and wich is the last stable 
one ?

as there is missing doc.. how should be placed the plugin2 object 
on the page?

My old remake of even older dockimbel's remake - R-box game is online 
again... http://box.lebeda.web/~hmm/rbox2/

and because it took me some time... there is this important difference, 
if you center faces inside plugin:
;system/version == 2.6.2.3.1

center-face: func [
    obj [object!]
    /with face [object!]
][
    if none? face [face: system/view/screen-face]
    obj/offset: max 0x0 face/size - obj/size / 2 + face/offset
    obj
]

;system/version == 2.7.5.3.1
center-face: func [

    {Center a face relative to parent (screen for windows) or a sibling 
    face.}
    obj [object!]
    /with "Center relative to a sibling face." face [object!]
][

    if none? face [face: any [obj/parent-face system/view/screen-face]]

    obj/offset: max 0x0 face/size - obj/size / 2 + either with [face/offset] 
    [0x0]
    obj
]

it's http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rbox2/

ech.. yes

and it's probably know problem, that Rebol plugin is not using browsers 
proxy settings

hey, this little game works for me here ...

I did not expect it ... so we don't have proxy here ... hmm ... the 
proxy problem is a pity, because other than that, we could already 
use plug-in ...

Pekr are you also able to post score online?

maybe I could connect it with my chat server:]

and have multiplayer rooms... but... still waiting for R3 first

anyway it's quite interesting that I can drag the window across all 
the web space... this is not possible with Flash (without JS calls)...

there is just a problem that if I drag the window outside, there 
is no chance to get i back... only reload:)

I just tried, yes, it works ...

heh, the window drag - interesting consequence :-)

It is REAL pity proxy problem was not fixed. It was so annoying show 
stopper, that we could be light-years ahead. Stupid decision to postpone 
that single fix.

I thing that bigger problem is, that you can run only one instance

ech.. so the dragging is not working in Opera... never mind... it 
was not mentioned to be used inside browsers

that might be initial problem, but still better to run one of them, 
than none ....

I'm using at least one plugin script all the time

this will be adressed in r3 according to carl's speech

the plugin itself has nothing in common with rebol - it is just a 
wrapper, and latest incarnation of plug-in was able to handle multiple 
instances.

the development was stalled because of security concerns, and Josh 
was working on some document, which he was supposed to have "out 
really soon". Then he announced that Carl set him another goal. I 
think noone is working on plug-in part recently.

actually as I understood that, the plugin part will be open source, 
so I'm not sure, if it's going to be done by RT themselves

I hope plug-in wrapper is open-source too. Tighter securite is something 
I agree with (after long discussion of Anton and Brian I believe 
it is a necessity). The idea was to limit amount of plug-in writeable 
data to disc, amount of max windows opened, etc., and to have certificates 
based aproach. You would buy certifikace and hence could develop 
full fledged apps with SDK.

what I can see a problem still, is, rebol "windowing". We use dialog 
box aproach. If I have window embedded in plug-in, and want to raise 
requester e.g., it will pop-up, and hece could be blocked. That is 
why I suggested, that maybe VID+ should think of native rebol windowing 
... not sure what others think about it ...

I think this is not blocked http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/plugin/test-request-file.html

well, its system dialog box ... try rebol based one? Maybe there 
would be no trouble, dunno .... you would also have to check with 
adblock

But I'm sure, that the Rebol security requestor cannot be worst, 
as most of the file paths it's asking to allow are not visible (if 
they are not in root)

I really think the current plugin has its uses, its very cool to 
have an unrestricted plugin for some applications.  but a more protected 
environment would be much easier to disseminate at large.

it could be at least used to present rebol view capabilities ... 
docs could be hidden, untill there is new version out with proper 
security ...

we need the docs back on line!!!!

I wanted to make an elixir in browser, put now, I can't!

just to make it easier to show-off to non-rebolers

Pekr.. good thing is, that I was able for the first time install 
the FF and Opera version without problem

imagine people's eyes when they will see they can have two browers 
speaking to each other without the need for a server!

:-)

yes its actually installs with no hassels (almost)

in IE the install is flawless... on FF you have to know about "allowing" 
install, and usually that's not obvious for the non-techie.

but it works, when you understand the concept, and just ask for install 
after having allowed it.

I§m sure plugin is very important as it will be much more esier to 
get Rebol on client side than on servers... all the PHP server admins 
are too lazy to allow something new

hi guys, I can't find ANY example of calling javascript within the 
plugin !    can any one just give an example where I get some values 
from the DOM (I'd like to retrive the current URL from which the 
plugin was called, so I can talk to the server... a tool I built 
needs to be setup for each site... (without changing the code... 
its compressed.)
