Pause not working correctly on IWP

Featured Replies

Hi all,

Has anyone run across a Pause script statement not working correctly in IWP?

I have a 3 second pause then a change to a different layout. The original layout displays until I click the "Continue" button in the Status Area.

I'm using Server 7 Advanced to host the file for a Windows IE 6 browser.

Thank you.

Hmmm, Why is the pause required? Well, I suppose at this point, it's more of curiosity than necessity! I was trying to solve a log-in problem using different accounts with different access rights, and using a short pause to switch to a layout with a message like "You are logged in as Admin (or Guest)", then switching to a starting layout depending on the user.

When I worked out the log-in difficulties, I tried the file on IWP (as opposed to FM Developer 7) and saw that the 3 second pause did not work.

I was just wondering if that's normal for the web user to encounter.

Thanks

I do need a Pause in IWP. I am trying to use FM from a Web browser to display a Leader Board for a competition event. The script goes through a list of divisions and events and finds the top ten times and displays a place, name, time list. It then pauses for 5 seconds and then displays the next division. The "Leader Board computer" is usually hooked up to a projection system and displayed for all participatants to view.

It works great under an FM client. But I wanted to add the capability to a browser window to save our customers the need to purchase an additional copy of FM 7. ScriptMaker shows that the Pause script is available for IWP and it indicates that pausing for a specified amount of time is available. But it doesn't work.

I need this thing to run without human interaction - you turn it on and it runs until you turn it off. Any ideas?
