netTextResult()
Description
Function; returns the text obtained by the specified network operation. If no net ID is specified,
netTextResult returns the result of the last network operation.

getNetText(), the text is the text of the file on the network.
If the specified network operation was
postNetText, the result is the server’s response.
After the next operation starts, Director discards the results of the previous operation to

When a movie plays back as a Shockwave movie, this function returns valid results for only the
most recent
getNetText() operation.
Example
This handler uses the "netDone and netError" functions to test whether the last network
operation finished successfully. If the operation is finished, text returned by
netTextResult is
displayed in the field cast member Display Text.
global gNetID
on exitFrame
if (netDone(gNetID) = TRUE) and (netError(gNetID) = "OK") then
member("Display Text").text = netTextResult()
end if
end
