Hi
Happy New year to all
Ive just downloaded and tried
https://www.mediafire.com/file/a3hh0dxnuigsumy/IMDB.COM_%2528Complete%2529_11_2024.txt/file
and all it does is go very rapidly (1 - 2 sec) through the 20 or so movies that need processing without out doing anything
Anybidy else have this problem

Also where can I find a quick guide to debugging scripts? I cant even see how to pause execution and step though the script

Happy new year from me, too

Please try this script: https://www.mediafire.com/file/731dfl2hkc0fi7j/IMDB.COM_%2528Complete%2529.txt/file
But I think that a few info like MovieConnections may not work. (I've just began to write a script for XMM 10 to retrieve ALL information from those pages containing "See more" buttons.)

To debug scripts you can use the internal MagicScript Editor or my plugin Script Debugger.
For more info on scripting have a look here:
http://www.binaryworks.it/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=15900 and here: http://www.binaryworks.it/cgi-bin/data/wiki/doku.php?id=programmer_s_guide

Thanks you for the superfast reply. Sadly the problem remains the same. the script cycles thru 20 movies repeatedly

Scripts: I understand the basic scripting language. what I dont understand is how to debug a script so
get it to stop at a line
step through the script a line at a time
etc

Is this what your plugin script debugger does and if so, where can I find it

Advice greatly appreciated

In the main menu go to MagicScript. Then open MagicScript Editor or Script Debugger.

MagicScript Editor:
1. Enter the search word top right.
2. Open a script.
3. Scroll to the defective Block.
4. Search for a special line where you want to start the line-by-line debugging.
5. Klick on the big red point in the top to set this break point. In the tab Variables you can set this line number at the bottom.
Attention: There is a "bug" in the original editor that stops the script always one line later!
6. The green running man (3rd icon) runs the script.
7. The walking man (4th icon) executes the script line by line.
8. The pause button toggles between normal execution and debugging.
9. The big square stops the script.

Script Debugger:
The buttons should be easy to identify.
Additionally you have normal editor options, etc.

In order to achieve what is possible, you have to try the impossible over and over again.
