Heya all!
How would I get a .55.1 child window to let the user close it? I'm not
all too sure if any other versions let me, but I can't, for the life of me,
get this thing to close after pressing the close button on the window?
(I hope it's sending a WM_CLOSE event... it might be, it might not
be, who knows...)
TIA,

Hi there,
I've sorted out a way to do it.
a) Create a global variable
global integer Parsing Parsing = 0
b) When np_parse starts, set Parsing to 1.
c) Replace ...
< while 1 do
< repaintWindow(loading)
with ...
> while Parsing do
> doEvents(loading_pb1)
> doEvents(loading)
d) Create a new global procedure...
global np_cancelParsing()
Parsing = 0
end procedure
e) Set two new event handler in napsterparse.exw.
onClick[loading_pb1] = routine_id("np_cancelParsing")
onClose[loading] = routine_id("np_cancelParsing")
and there you have it!
This will still bring up the main window with whatever had been parsed so
far, but I'm sure you can handle that.

Definatly a try to answer my 2nd question ("Window repaint" part
deux?), my first had to deal with my Search window. But still...
Derek, I updated it with your recommendations, didn't work at all,
like the things added aren't there. How foobar'd...
Online is my updated version, same address, tell me how it goes, if it
works for ya. If it does, Derek, can you send me your comp specs,
just so I can figure out whether its this machine or not?

Ooops! I was in so much of a hurry to tell you the answer I forgot this part
..
In the main file change ....
< openWindow(loading, Normal)
< one()
< closeWindow(loading)
to ...
> procedure opnwin()
> openWindow(loading, Normal)
> one()
> closeWindow(loading)
> end procedure
>
> onOpen[mainwin] = routine_id("opnwin")
also, you forgot to change the "while 1 do" to "while Parsing do". Without
this, it would never recogonise that you pressed the button.
I didn't see your message about some problem with the Search window. Can you
fill me in?
