[ANN] This Week in LiveCode 259

[scott at elementarysoftware.com]

Jacque,

I just followed a lesson to accomplish the same thing. Were you using LibURL or tsNet? I was successful using tsNet but not yet when trying to do it with LibURL. I was hoping to have both methods available so that the stack would also work with the community version when I shared it…

At the end of Andre’s book I followed a link to his website and ended up wanting to purchase one of the drip coffee cones he talked about… but not the exploding tea infuser!
