bugs

[Chipp Walters]

Geoff,

I don't think anyone is attacking your programming prowess here. It's 
just that by providing a one line script and calling it a 'program' you 
invite questions.

If it is in a button, and the cursor problem (where it disappears in XP, 
documented recently on this list), how does one 'click' the button w/out 
a cursor? That would be a bug. Course it wouldn't be for me, because 
even though I use XP I've never seen *that* bug (my guess it has to do 
with video drivers?). And it probably wouldn't be for you as certainly 
your code has nothing to do with cursors. But if you had a customer 
complain about it, then you would have to assume they have encountered 
what *they think* is a bug.

IOW, without a spec for the program and the platform and set user 
expectations, it's really hard to define what is a bug. As someone 
mentioned earlier, does Rev's insistence on storing the htmlText of a 
script as a custom prop of it's control, even when there's no script 
constitute a bug? Not an easy question to answer.

Personally, I think your one line script looks bug free to me! I imagine 
after I run the finished program (how much you gonna charge?), I might 
have more to say ;-)

It's all food for thought.

best regards,

Chipp
