Finally got this project onlne using run basic

[richard]

http://1littleworld.net/truck1.html

Everything within the iframe is done with "run Basic".
I developed the expanding tree part.

There is no javascript anywhere in the program.

You may experience a tad slowing loading if you're on dialup.
But be patient, it will get to you. Nothing more than loading a page.

I know it will work in IE and FF, but not others so let me know if you
have any problems with it.

"When computing first got underway in the way home there were two ways
of getting information onto the screen. DOS or BASIC."

For me, the first was UNIX. You need to revise your content.

Opera/9.64 (X11; Linux i686; U; en) Presto/2.1.1, but the same with
Firefox.

Heh, you should stick to truck driving.

Something odd I don't understand about this.
I have two standard links using the <a> tag.
Both are properly refernced.
However, when I hover over them, I see my site is also included in the
link. How the hell does this happen?

Cured. Forgot to include the http.

Did any part of it load?
You should at least see a list of states in the left column.

Cured.

Not quite.

Personally I think you're full of shit.
I just installed opera 9.64 and had no problems loading the page.
Hell, Opera loaded faster than FF.

But you tried to validate the actual code page.

I'm sure you'd get the same results for any java applet.
The validator does not know, or care to know how an application is
coded.

You'd be wrong. Why did 'polymer' post the exact same errors?

I just installed opera 9.64 and had no problems loading the page.

Yes, now it works (even in Opera), for some value of "works".

Hell, in another post, you did say you corrected some errors. Pay
attention.

If your reaction to learning that someone's outcome isn't the same as
yours is going to be to tell him he's full of shit, then have a lot of
nerve asking people in the first place to see whether they get the same
outcome as you.

Have you looked? A Java applet has nothing to do with errors like having
a "#" inside the ID attribute of an HTML tag or having multiple elements
with same ID (which defeats the entire purpose of giving elements an ID
attribute at all).

And have either of you smart ass know it alls bothered to look at the
fact that all of those errors came from the same line?
That I have no control over. That is generated by the programmer and
the way he programmed the output to read.

I have made him aware that id="#whatever" is not valid.

It is also possible that in the process of compiling the BASIC
language into useable html, has some quirks to it. As html does not
understand that "#one" is not an "ID" tag per se, but rather an
identifier for use within the language.

I have also seen the validator have holy fits over certain items that
are perfectly acceptable in the javascript convention. Or it has fits
because a simple ? was used within a section surrounded by quotes.

I am also quite sure that the validator would have holy fits if
someone dare imbed visual basic into the page.

 

[Beauregard T. Shagnasty]

Huh? Code page? Oh wait ...

That one is just your tiny 'frameset' page. I'm surprised you didn't
recognize the difference.

And have either of you smart ass know it alls bothered to look at the
fact that all of those errors came from the same line? That I have no
control over. That is generated by the programmer and the way he
programmed the output to read.

Well, duh! The entire *page* is on one line!

I have made him aware that id="#whatever" is not valid.

Yeah, right. You're gonna get the W3C to change their validator because
of some crap your runbasic thing spits out?

It is also possible that in the process of compiling the BASIC
language into useable html, has some quirks to it.

Now that's an understatement. Some?

As html does not
understand that "#one" is not an "ID" tag per se, but rather an
identifier for use within the language.

are perfectly acceptable in the javascript convention. Or it has fits
because a simple ? was used within a section surrounded by quotes.

It would not have fits if you wrote valid HTML. JavaScript is not valid
HTML. If it bitched about your question mark, you used it somewhere,
probably in a URL that was wrong.

I am also quite sure that the validator would have holy fits if
someone dare imbed visual basic into the page.

That'd be like taking your sewing machine to the car shop for repairs.

You keep posting about this Runbasic crap, then can't take the heat when
someone(s) tells you just how bad it really is.

Displays fine on my browsers, in Icab and MacIE5 as well as all the
usual suspects like Safari, FF ...

What rather surprised me was how well it ran on my CD player when burned
in as text from Source View, it flowers into the beautiful Irving Berlin
song. Here is a marvellous version by Perry Como and the Pointer Sisters
(the latter making it nearly everything it is):

....which is not terribly surprising since you're doing lots of server
round-trips/reloads to produce the 'expanded' bits, nothing too amazing
there.

....man, it's slow on broadband too.

Man, you seem to have been working on this for *weeks*. I think most of us
could have duplicated this using PHP or VBScript/ASP(X) on a rainy Saturday
afternoon while watching the football.

Not a beautiful result, but it works with my SeaMonkey browser:

First Richard might have something called a life, and second, he might
be developing something that starts slow and ends up like Phar Lap.
