REBOL IE/FF Plugin

[Thør]

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to know if anyone has had some experience in using the REBOL plugins for IE or FireFox. I'm trying to "port" a web app written in PHP & MySQL to a web app written in REBOL (with the underlying database intact). So far I've tried "porting" the login page of the site, but I really haven't gotten anywhere as I keep having errors, something similar to the one below:

Code:

** Access Error: Cannot open /C/Documents and Settings/thor/Local Settings/Temp/REBOL/Plugin/
0/public/192.168.163.2/support/skin-slider.r
** Where: do-thru
** Near: do %support/skin-slider.r
do %support/skin-arrow.r
do

This is brought about (I think) by my use of RebGUI as part of the interface. If this is so, I want to know if there's a workaround to avoid these errors, and if there's none, then does this mean that all REBOL scripts that I intend to embed in a web page have to be in a single file (i.e. I can't use do with subfolders)?

The easiest solution would be to compile the script and distribute it, but I haven't got the money yet to buy a license for the SDK, so I'm looking for alternatives.

Thanks for your input.


===== After about 6 hours of doing other stuff =====

Hi! I've been doing additional research on the topic of REBOL as an embedded OBJECT in web pages and I've come across a thread on RSP (REBOL Server Pages?). It mentions rebolfrance.org as a source of information regarding RSP. However, when I visited it, I was surprised to see a page offering tours to Paris and France. Could someone please enlighten me on what happened to the site? Or is there a "secret" folder where REBOL related stuff are stored?

Thanks again!

if you want to use the rebol/plugin, try and make sure that the whole script is one .. and there are no "do"s involved.  Remember, it is executing on the client so, if you do have a "do" present, it should be pointing to your website.  Otherwise, you'll be trying to execute scripts in the client's sandbox.

 rebolfrance.org moved to rebol-france.org  <-- note the hyphen

Don't ask me why..

Thanks Graham. That solved 85% of my headaches.
