ADOBE DIRECTOR 11.0 341 Scripting Dictionary #URL #state #bytesSoFar #bytesTotal #error String containing the URL location used to start the network operation. String consisting of Connecting, Started, InProgress, Complete, "Error", or "NoInformation" (this last string is for the condition when either the net ID is so old that the status information has been dropped or the URL specified in URLString was not found in the cache). Number of bytes retrieved from the network so far. Total number of bytes in the stream, if known. The value may be 0 if the HTTP server does not include the content length in the MIME header. String containing "" (EMPTY) if the download is not complete, OK if it completed successfully, or an error code if the download ended with an error. For example, you can start a network operation with getNetText() and track its progress with getStreamStatus(). Parameters netID Required. A network operation that represents the stream of text to operate on. Example This statement displays in the message window the current status of a download begun with getNetText() and the resulting net ID placed in the variable netID: -- Lingo put getStreamStatus(netID) -- [#URL: "www.adobe.com", #state: "InProgress", #bytesSoFar: 250, #bytesTotal: 50000, #error: EMPTY] // Javascript trace(getStreamStatus(netID)) // See also on streamStatus, tellStreamStatus() getURL() Usage GetUrl(MUIObject, message, MovableOrNot) Description This function displays a dialog box for entering a URL and returns the URL that the user enters. • message specifies the message that appears in the field for entering a URL. When the dialog box is first opened, this string is sent as a predefined value. When the user clicks a button, Lingo returns the string that the user entered. If the user clicks Cancel, the returned string is the same as the original value. • On the Macintosh, MovableOrNot specifies whether the dialog box is movable. TRUE makes the dialog box movable. FALSE makes the dialog box not movable. The GetURL dialog box is always movable in Windows. Example These statements display a dialog box for entering a URL.
