Where is the web site?

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi James,

Are you looking for something like this?

on mouseUp
    select word clickedWord() of me
end mouseUp

function clickedWord
    put the clickChunk into myChunk
    return number of words of \
    (char 1 to (word 2 of myChunk) of the text of the target)
end clickedWord

Put the mouseUp handler into the script of a field, put the  
clickedWord function somewhere higher up the message hierarchy or in  
the same field script.
