note that the script still works without them. you'll just miss them 
when viewing the html result in the browser if you used anything 
that needs them (rounded boxes for e.g.)

Don't bother, I have loaded qml-ed already, wihtout changing the 
dir, and moving files manually after.

(I had the same error  than volker, but solved it by unchecking the 
images files in repack and downloaded only "template.html")

qml-ed not there

What about using Apache's Rewrite module [ http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html
] to make nicer links in the Library.

Sunanda, would it be possible in the library to use Gabriele's PDFMaker 
HTML doc CSS style sheet for displaying script code ?

I find it realy beautifull. It realy turns reading code into a visual 
aesthetic experience.

Thanks.....If you need some HTML tweaks to make the CSS really sing 
and dance, please let me know, and we can probably arrange it.

Sunanda: i keep the list of know words external to the script. there's 
a link to it from the html doc i posted (look for the #include directive 
and click on it). there's also a script that generates that file 
(apache directory index is enabled for that dir, so you'll be able 
to see it there)

Is it the look of the code in this document: http://www.colellachiara.com/soft/PDFM2/pdf-maker.html
that is asked for?

Does anyone have an opinion on what colors to use in syntax highlighting? 
The color-code.r script by Carl produce these colors: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/rebol/color-test.html

This is how vim color REBOL code: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/rebol/color-test-vim.html

Some syntax colors: http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/rebol/syntax-color.html

This is work in progress! First is colors for comments and values 
(as I suggest). Then colors from Carl's script color-code.r, then 
some named colors from REBOL, and last some JavaScript syntax colors, 
I found on the net.


Syntax colors for many languages seem to use green for comments. 
I prefer blue, so comments better stick out, also for people having 
trouble with red and green. Values being red seem to be widely used. 
I'll try to make an example of REBOL code with colors...

First example with test of colors: http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/rebol/example.html

My idea is to build an example, that satisfies the need. Then I look 
at implementation for the Library, so sources in the library can 
be viewed this way.


Maybe refinements shouldn't be that yellow!? Should background be 
a little gray like this? #f9f9f9 Or should it be white? The purple 
and blue might be a bit too bright compared to the red and green? 
Or should the red and green be brighter?

I see geomol has updated his personal CSS at the Library.....You 
can now look at any script using his set of colours and font effects...Much 
better than the system default!!
Example:

http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?color=yes&script=acgiss.r&css=geomol

(just add css=geomol to *any* Library URL. Or set your CSS preference).

And anyone can play the game -- devise and publish your own CSS for 
script coloring or any other aspect of the Library:

http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/boiler.r?display=css-help.html

I've added encoding: 'cp1252 into header... it's up to rebol.org 
now to use such an info and convert such a script into utf8 before 
displaying it in html

Even better script searching at REBOL.org -- we've extended the "[b]" 
notation to include other parts of a script and any tags the script 
has. The search can now be highly tuned to what you are looking for:
http://www.rebol.org/boiler.r?display=introduction.html

Ammon -- some of the indexing happens in the background, so can trail 
12 hours or so behind a script being updated.

In the specific case of searching for an author name, the syntax 
you need is different:
    [author//maxim olivier-adlhoch]
Help for searches is here:
   http://www.rebol.org/boiler.r?display=introduction.html

sunanda, you can force the character encoding in the html page header... 
I've used that before and it worked for me.

I had the same kind of issues on another system.  nowadays, the default 
encoding has become UTF-8 for many/most html handlers, so if its 
not specified, many new browers and tools will incorrectly break 
up the character data.

Maxim, REBOL.org emits a header

   <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8">

Yeah, I know we aren't utf-8 -- but experiment has shown that's the 
moste acceptable charset.

Not sure what you are saying we could put in <head> -- can you be 
more specific.

there is a specific charset for western -iso, which ensure the extra 
127 bytes are correct.


<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">

The view-script.r html source for the page correctly advertises the 
encoding as utf-8, so the browser shows it correctly.

Cut'n'paste ought to work. Though the download format is safer as 
it has been less processed (no escaping of embedded HTML codes etc).

I can sympathise -- I generally notice _any_ new device I buy (from 
computers to wrist watches) won't work for the first half hour or 
so, But as soon as I start to think that either it's defective, or 
I am very stupid, then it starts to play fair.

Animism is still a good first attempt at understanding the universe 
:-)

after those, the RBBS project does some dynamic pages generated from 
databases and key values http://www.rebol.com/docs/cgi-bbs.html
  HOWEVER, when delving into anything CGI (not wiki link, so maybe 
not what you want) it takes some heavy head-scratching

Some examples here:
http://www.rebol.net/notes/rv13-changes.html
eg  needs: [view 1.3.0 sound 1.2.4]

see http://www.fm.vslib.cz/~ladislav/rebol/include.rhttp://www.fm.vslib.cz/~ladislav/rebol/include.html

could you help me with parsing? what is the best way to change value 
of "src"'s in html document to another value?

I should mention some characteristics of the above parse rule.

Since it does not parse html, its detection of real img tags is simple 
and cannot determine the context in which the string  "<img" is found. 
 For instance, there might be written some code in a preformatted 
text section, eg:
	<pre>
		<img src="...">
	</pre>

Such a section should be left alone by the parser as it is not "inside" 
the html.
Unfortunately, making a full html parser is not so easy...
But you may find the above rule is sufficient for your needs.

about <pre> - html tags inside are permitted

Hmm... that's a strange rule. I thought that any text could be inside 
<pre> ... </pre> so that you could put code in. I don't claim to 
have a real indepth knowledge of html, though. I try to avoid it. 
:)

If You want to show html code in <pre> - You should use &gt; for 
> and &lt; for <

If we use the HTML tags and NOT sticking with the hierarchical datamodel, 
those examples could be done as:

<b>This text is bold.<i>This is bold and italic.</b>This is just 
italic.</i>

I maybe wouldn't get the result, that I wanted, so I had to change 
my text, but my text would be fully understood by the parser. This 
having start- and end-tags is a big problem with HTML, because people 
produce incorrect HTML code all the time, because it's possible. 
If HTML used some kind of a block structure in stead, a lot of incorrect 
code wouldn't exist, and it would be easier to make a browser.

One of the goals with the MakeDoc format is, that it's possible to 
easily read with a normal text window, and some people may want to 
edit it with a normal text editor and write the formatting chars 
themselves. XML is not suited for that. XML also has the same start- 
and end-tag problem (that I mentioned above) as HTML.

gen-html doesn't even have a tag for enum2 or enum3 (but have to 
study a bit more

gen-html knows enum and convert it to html flag but it doesn't knows 
enum2 and enul3

so need to add there the corresponding html flags for enum2 and enum3

there seems to be some things missing (how to make bold and italic?) 
and I can't properly process multiple documents using makedoc2. the 
<html>, <body> and CSS code is only included in the first one, but 
not subsequent ones, if I 'load-only makedoc2 and follow the example 
shown in the source code.

hrm. I get weird behavior trying to run a cgi.

Here's the code:

#!/usr/local/bin/rebol -c

REBOL [
	Title: "Server Time"
]

print "content-type: text/html^/"
print [<HTML><BODY>]
print ["Date/time is:" now]
print [</BODY></HTML>]


I get an Internal Server Error result in the browser, and here's 
the output in my error_log:


[Sat May 28 16:21:38 2005] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] *** Boot Error 
951: \r

[Sat May 28 16:21:38 2005] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Premature end 
of script headers: time.r


If I run if with 'rebol time.r', it clears the screen and then displays 
this:

content-type: text/html

<HTML> <BODY>
Date/time is: 28-May-2005/16:24:42-7:00
</BODY> </HTML>
Aborted

What the heck am I doing wrong?

[[wisti-:-localhost] cgi-bin]$ /usr/local/bin/rebol -c time.r
content-type: text/html

<HTML> <BODY>
Date/time is: 28-May-2005/16:47:35-7:00
</BODY> </HTML>
[[wisti-:-localhost] cgi-bin]$

[[wisti-:-localhost] cgi-bin]$ unset DISPLAY
[[wisti-:-localhost] cgi-bin]$ /usr/local/bin/rebol -c time.r
content-type: text/html

<HTML> <BODY>
Date/time is: 28-May-2005/16:50:36-7:00
</BODY> </HTML>

It's fairly straigt-foward (I think!).


.......If you have no multi-part data, then just used the "standard" 
read-cgi  -- but remember that on some platforms no input returns 
"" while on others it returns none
http://www.rebol.com/docs/words/wread-io.html


.....If you have multi-part data (say an uploaded file), then use 
Andreas' decode-multipart-form script:

 http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/ml-display-message.r?m=rmlKVSQ


.....If the form could have both or neither (ie there may or may 
not be a file uploaded), then each of the above solutions will fail 
(Carl's when there is. and Andreas's when there isn't)....So wrap 
the full code in a few attempts to handle that.

Steve, If it is a small number of fields, you can change the html 
submit action from a 'Post to a 'Get then you will see the fields 
in the URL when submitted.   Just take a copy of the HTML page if 
it is not yours and look for the Action word in the Form to change 
then run it yourself.

aha, I meant CGI/HTML imagemap, rather than native View

It looks like the problem does not come from the past-translated, 
but from the 'request-method: with CGI, the values are "GET" or "POST", 
but with FastCGI, the values are "GET^@^@^@^@" or "POST^@^@^@". But 
with lighttpd, no problem. So to make FastCGI rebol scripts work 
with LiteSpeed, we have to update the exemple http://www.rebol.com/docs/words/wread-io.html
as:

With Apache 2.x (normal CGI), we have: make object! [ 
	server-software: "Apache/2.0.54 (Fedora)" 
	server-name: "localhost" 
	gateway-interface: "CGI/1.1" 
	server-protocol: "HTTP/1.1" 
	server-port: "80" 
	request-method: "GET" 
	path-info: "/sample01.rhtml" 
	path-translated: "/var/www/html/sample01.rhtml" 
	script-name: "/cgi-bin/magic.cgi" 
	query-string: "" 
	remote-host: none 
	remote-addr: "127.0.0.1" 
	auth-type: none 
	remote-user: none 
	remote-ident: none 
	Content-Type: none 
	content-length: none 
	other-headers: [
		"HTTP_HOST" "localhost" 

  "HTTP_USER_AGENT" {Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) 
  Gecko/20050720 Fedora/1.0.6-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.6} 

  "HTTP_ACCEPT" {text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5} 
		"HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE" "en-us,en;q=0.5" 
		"HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING" "gzip,deflate" 
		"HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET" "ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7" 
		"HTTP_KEEP_ALIVE" "300" 
		"HTTP_CONNECTION" "keep-alive" 
		"HTTP_COOKIE" "PHPSESSID=7f84fd7766f23e1462fed550ecbbfda4"
	] 
]

With lighttpd and LiteServer, both path-info and path-translated 
are missing, while 'script-name is the name of the originator html 
file instead of the name of the cgi script (magic.cgi).

5 is read execute, that should be ok. script-headers is the "Content-type: 
text/html^/^/". When you have output on rebol-side before (like error-message), 
this is the servers way to handle that. my usual way is to put "Content-type: 
text/plain^/^/" as first statement and get readable output that way. 
 Does not help if the script is not running at all of course. btw, 
the rebol-exe has the right args too? Easy to forget.

Hello everyone..
I have a CGI problem/question.


I have a Win-apache-rebol server that isn't propagting the cgi info 
properly..
Upon posting.. the query-string is empty.
I am not sure what I am missing..

Details:

page1.rcgi
========================
#!c:\rebol\rebol.exe -cs
rebol []
print "content-type: text/html^/"
print "<html><body>"
print "  <form action='page2.rcgi' method='POST'>"

print "    <input type='text' name='var01' size='16' value='test'>"
print "    <input type='submit' name='go' value='Lookup'>"
print "  </form>"
print "</body></html>"


page2.rcgi
========================
#!c:\rebol\rebol.exe -cs
REBOL [ ]
print "content-type: text/html^/"
print "<html><body>"
print mold system/options/cgi
print "<hr>"
print "</body></html>"



if I .. ( decode-cgi system/options/cgi/query-string ), my vars are 
all undefined.

Also, looking at the 'print mold system/options/cgi' shows   query-string=""

if I change page1 form-action to ... "action='page2.rcgi?x=123"

then the query-string on page2 gets populated with x=123 and the 
value 123 gets assigned to 'x'
when I 'decode-cgi'.

However, my form fields NEVER get populated.
Does anyone have any advice?

John.

I am trying for first time to setup rebol for cgi on  remote Apache 
web server on Linux.
I am working from WinXP
Site management is done with EnsimPro. Ftp does not yet working.
So what is done up to now:

Uploaded file Rebol from rebol-core-2602042.tar package for Linux 
to cgi-bin directory;

Set permisions to owner read, write, execute and for group and others 
to read, execute;
Test script -> write file read file,

Test script uploaded (throught web broeser by using EnsimPro web 
interface) test script:

#!/var/www/cgi-bin/rebol -cs

REBOL [Title: "CGI Basics"]

print ["Content-type: text/html" newline]

print "Hello!!!"

to cgi-bin directory;
Set the same permisions.


Pointing to the test file I am getting "500 Internal server errror" 
What else could be wrong?


Interesting that I have interpreters directory on this web server 
where are couple files regarding php and perl.
Could it be connected with my problem?

Btw content of one of file in the interpreters dir:
#!/bin/bash
if [ -z "$REDIRECT_STATUS" ]; then
  echo -e "Content-Type: text/html\r\n\r
<b>Security Alert!</b> The Perl CGI cannot be accessed directly.


<p>This Perl CGI launcher is configured to require a redirect.  This

means that a page will only be served up if the REDIRECT_STATUS CGI 
variable 
is set, e.g. via an Apache Action directive.</p>


<p>For more information as to <i>why</i> this behaviour exists, see 
the <a href=\"http://php.net/security.cgi-bin\"> PHP manual page 
for CGI security</a>.</p>

 else
  export SCRIPT_NAME=${PATH_TRANSLATED##${DOCUMENT_ROOT}}
  
 export SCRIPT_FILENAME=$PATH_TRANSLATED
  /usr/bin/perl 
$SCRIPT_FILENAME"
fi


As newcomer in linux and apache I can only ques what it mean, but 
I am thinking about this line:
 This Perl CGI launcher is ...

I asked for mu web service provider to add linux-gate.so.1 to the 
server he did not aprove that he did (actualy I did not get any answer 
yet), but today I found that my test script:

 #!/var/www/cgi-bin/rebview -cs

REBOL [Title: "CGI Basics"]

print ["Content-type: text/html" newline]

print "Heloooooo!!!"

works differently - I am getting following response:

** Near: size-text self

You can check: http://www.jk.serveris.lv/cgi-bin/test

What could it mean?

Sounds like I should to think about other solutions of human control 
and image resizing & texts on them.
It is a pitty.

Human control could be organized by just set of image files with 
some "kidnaping" fonts letters and some simple script in Core.

Image resizing (f.ex. when uploading) theoreticaly could be done 
with Core - but it seems too much work for me now, because I dont 
know yet how image files is built and those resizing algorithms.
And about text placing on uploaded images I can forget.
All things above could be done in View just fine.
:(

It was good idea, that I made first my private blog site on Linux. 
Despite Rebol runs on so many systems - running the same things on 
other systems should be checked before. Especialy if there are no 
expierence of work on that system.


BTW I found in the google the similar response was caused from uncomplete 
View instalation: http://demo.rebol.net/list/list-msgs/34071.html
But it looks that this is not the case.

i think, it's not possible in pure html

here is ActionScript doc example: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00002226.html

I'm using FormMail.pl to handle some simple contact details collection, 
but seems it is not highly regarded in the Perl community due to 
it's vulnerability to SPAM and bots. nms seems to offer a more secure 
version, http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/faq_nms.html, but I haven't 
done anything with Perl for years now. Anyone have a suggestion for 
a good FormMail.pl replacement, are are rumors of it's death greatly 
exaggerated?

Hi,  question for the webheads.


   In short.  Can a form call a cgi action that processes data but doesn't 
   output any Content-type

(or anything for that matter) without the browser status coming up 
with "waiting for reply".


   I've got a client that wants a form for requesting more info, but 
   they want to leave the user on

the same screen, so I thought I could have a %process.cgi that takes 
the data and plays with it

and then have an intrinsic  onsubmit=alert(...)  to inform the user 
that the request has been submitted.

The %process.cgi doesn't 
print "Content-type ..."


it doesn't print anything, as I was hoping to leave the same browser 
screen up.

Am I living in lalaland?


Should the %process.cgi just redirect back to the original page with?


print "location: /original.html^/content-type: text/html^/"  or is 
that deprecated now?  It works under my test heads, Cheyenne and 
nonIE browser, but is there a bigger better way?  Or do I tell the 
client that the browser needs a new page and I can add a back link 
(not preferred).

Thanks for listening

You want to set the file permissions for each script  globally executable, 
but not globally readable.

Also protect the cgi-bin folder from being read by the whole world...If 
you are using Apache, look at the IndexIgnore directive:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_autoindex.html#indexignore

One of my clients updates his site via some tool, which always seem 
to add some space between the lines. After some time, the page is 
instead of 400 rows something like 13K rows - the size goes from 
cca 25KB to 100KB. So I wrote a cgi script, which reads index.html 
and removes blank lines. Everything is OK, when I run the script 
from the console. But when I run it via a browser as a CGI script 
call, it can't write the file. Dunno why - cgi-script is being run 
using -cs switch, I even put secure none in there, cgi-script has 
the same own, grp set as index.html, but I can't write it ....

Changed index.html permission to 646, and it works now. Maybe CGI 
scripts are being run under the Apache user or group, who knows. 
Thanks for pointers!

I want to print out an html error when run from cgi, but execute 
code when run stand-alone.

There are two major types of XML (or SGML) APIs:

Tree-based APIs

    These map an XML document into an internal tree structure, then allow 
    an application to navigate that tree. The Document Object Model (DOM) 
    working group at the World-Wide Web Consortium (W3C) maintains a 
    recommended tree-based API for XML and HTML documents, and there 
    are many such APIs from other sources. 
Event-based APIs

    An event-based API, on the other hand, reports parsing events (such 
    as the start and end of elements) directly to the application through 
    callbacks, and does not usually build an internal tree. The application 
    implements handlers to deal with the different events, much like 
    handling events in a graphical user interface. SAX is the best known 
    example of such an API.

== [document none [["html" ["xmlns" "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
"xml:lang" "en" "lang" "en"] ["^/" ["head" n
one [["title" none [...

Maybe it would be good to look at Gabriele's Temple - he did only 
basic html parsing, but provided such code

hmm, dunno of how to explain it. It simply parses XML, creates block 
of blocks structure. Then you have those functions like find-by-id, 
find-by-name, etc., which you can use to manipulate values ... then, 
once done, you generate XML. What I did not like is, that ti builds 
the structure from the scratch, so e.g. with html page, you loose 
nice formatting, comments etc. But others said, you could have pointers 
from such nodes to original doc and rebuild the doc properly ...

To become part of the RP a library will need to adhere to these requirements:
- BSD license
- docs in HTML/makedoc
- code accepted by RP lead

Just did. Magic has a nice set of HTML functions but the drawback 
is that you need a daemon for session management, which won't work 
in a shared hosting env and is harder to keep alive. But is seems 
a bit more complete, so provided that you'll do the 3.5 translation 
as well I'd be happy to include it.

I was just looking to see what I needed to use the html-filter function, 
and it seems I have to load the module system, and then import all 
stuff needed to run the html-filter ...

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/static/multibyte.html

I've been using  pgsql-protocol (r090)  to store HTML reports into 
the DB. 


It can write a large compressed string into a text column ok. Trying 
to read the data back causes the program to hang. The length of the 
stored string returns 182514 chars. (In psql: SELECT length(html) 
FROM reports....)

Test Code;

sql: {SELECT html FROM reports.html_reports WHERE ticket = '2007-756-fcw'}
insert db-port sql
html: first db-port
.... rest of test program never gets executed.

Does anyone know if this a known behaviour? Thanks

For information, if I select any other column, the program runs as 
expected. The data is these columns is a lot smaller in length.

They might be several reasons why this don't work. Try using LIMIT 
as a cheap workaround : http://pgsqld.active-venture.com/queries-limit.html

Ok thanks. I'll double check the exact number tommorrow, but it's 
the 8.1 series. LIMIT would be a good idea, but the query returns 
only one row. It's the amount of data in the one column that is the 
problem. (Whole HTML reports in one chunk). I was thinking that I 
should split up the report into a set of smaller chunks as it gets 
generated  anyway.


I'll give you some more info tommorrow. I appreciate you are busy 
with Cheyenne, so thanks for your time.

Organisation : it's already done!

The online (html but not uptodate) dictionary and the Rebol one (In 
desktop / Rebol.com / Tools / Word browser) have categories.

Carl Sassenrath said that the heart of rebol is in denotational semantics. 
So I went and started reading 
http://www.cis.ksu.edu/~schmidt/text/densem.html


and it is true, you can see and understand the roots of rebol better 
afterwards.

web su.ks ... just tinkering with css, html, and all that MLs, which 
do give you different results in different interpreters, ehm, browsers 
:-)

Reichart - it uses html, so no?

Used HTML, no, it renders "to" HTML.

yes, I always see html as a "presentation" layer .... one of them 
...

Did you notice http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/REBOL_Programming? My 
Bindology article is: http://www.fm.tul.cz/~ladislav/rebol/contexts.html
(I guess it may earn a title of the most unreadable article written 
on the subject :-)

Some time ago I talked with Carl here on AltME and mentioned PhotoThreads. 
Carl wanted me to keep an eye on it. There is newer version now. 
What is PhotoThreads can be read here: http://www.sics.se/~adam/pt/about.html
.... maybe we are lucky enough to get concurency with Rebol 3.x family 
:-)

yes in a sense,  pekr i think pointed out this article http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/co-xpcom.html
a good read !

OK, found something. I bet we have some books in the office as well:

If you know the names of the drugs in the system can't you just generate 
the html/get?

this is pretty much the only way to show html

Did anybody try Cyphre's http://www.rebol.net/plugin/moz-1/cyphre-demo.html
in Mozilla? In Seamonkey I get sligtly different results than when 
it is being run in View directly ... e.g no sound, the wheels (second 
sequence) are blinking strangerly, there some some white-page breaks 
with nothing displayed, whereas in View there is some text ... (IIRC 
e.g. Sea Dream in the beginning is missing in browser)

JoshM: please go to plugin-1 group, scroll up a bit to find my bold 
messages, and read on a bit, there are some findings. To post some 
notes - probably the most significant link is - 

http://www.mozilla.org/projects/plugins/


The plugin extension adobe, mozilla, apple, opera, macromedia and 
sun agreed upon is npruntime

How to host NS plug-ins in IE:

http://www.mozilla.org/projects/plugins/plugin-host-control.html

couldn't ECMAScript's 'eval be used for kind of 'do-browser? http://www.devguru.com/technologies/ecmascript/quickref/javascript_index.html

Yes...now the question is, does deactivate mean switching outside 
of the browser? or does deactivate meaning switching outside the 
plugin, i.e. to a HTML text box on the page?

For information about the plugin, and to install or upgrade to the 
1.3.2 plugin, please go to the following URL: http://www.rebol.com/web-plugin.html

wrt own window on top to do the window messages, etc -- I'm all for 
slamming itself on top of the browser, and not going through it to 
embed view.   or make it a "windowed" control, which is how IE does 
SELECT elements.  The complexity there is having it crop to be part 
of the page.  I think wndows media control is like that, where you 
can pick a windowed version, which performs better (probably from 
similar things that you are running into.  MSAgent runs in the browser, 
and is allowed ro roam anywhere on the screen in an irregularly shaped 
winoow.  It also starts a server process which handles all calls 
to the interactions with applications like IE and Office that take 
advantage of that aspect.  It's all asynchronous/multithreaded, and 
shuts down automatically when there are no more client controls to 
serve.


The DOM provides screen position information, but the downside is 
that with embedded controls like Adobe SVG viewer and Flash is that 
they will respond correctly to transparency (showing html page background 
through transparent parts of control  -- never got REBOL plugin to 
do that, which has something to do with wmode="transparent"  or something 
similar

I thin, Josh should read some doc about Flash security: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/fplayer_security.html

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/fplayer8_security.html

or link an html viewer module within view... again, not a full-blown 
app... just a demo which show that it actually works.

Anyway, why somoone would like to do remakes of an old games? We 
have emulators and the old games are available for download without 
problems now, like from this place: http://eager.back2roots.org/A-Z.HTML
If someone want to do a game in Rebol, it should be a new game which 
will use all the features of the network - it should be multiplayer 
online game - imagine Altme, but with avatars going around:-) I'm 
just waiting for R3 where I will be able to use custom fonts, better 
sound and modules  (for example). The problem I see is, that most 
of us here are coders, not graphic artists:(
