array mystery

[Peter M. Brigham, MD]

Sorry, I know you've written about printkeys() but I don't have it. Is it a function handler? If so can you post it again or send it to me? Thanks.

Maybe you could set the clipboarddata["rtftext"] to printkeys(myArray) and then paste the text into a text editor? You could make the array a global so you can see what it contains after the script finishes executing as well.

Weeding out null characters made no difference, and arrayEncoding/decoding made no difference, and putting the text string into a field and getting the text of the field made no difference, so it wasn't the cross-platform line delimiter issue, as I had thought. I still don't know what the problem is. The debugger shows the correct array contents, but getting the array content from a script returns empty. I'm going to use a different page-scraping approach entirely when I can stand to go back to it -- that will be a bigger job.
