Jane,
this plugin throws several script errors, and also has functionality issues, I expect they have updated their site code since 2013.
Thanks.

That is not the current version. Please ensure you have the latest version from the plugin store.

check plugins gives me this: (cheek plugins is up to date)
"E. Not In Store" "1.0" " " "Behind The Name forenames" "Jane Taubman" " "
I do not believe I have changed a plugin name from the store but:

Re: Behind The Name forenames Version: 1.0
I got it manually fromV6 plugins at the plugin store.
V1.1 doesnt work quite right either.
require("fhUtils")
it is not useable in V6, as is, needs loadrequire.
still many script errors.

I will update the listing to remove support for earlier versions.

Re: Behind The Name forenames Version: 1.0
Fo me on FH v7 and Windows 10 the plugin V1.1 also produces lots of HTML script errors.
They are possibly due to the IUP web browser being Internet Explorer (IE) based.
IE becomes unavailable & unsupported next summer, so this plugin and some of my plugins will stop working entirely.
There seems to be no alternative replacement using say the Edge in place of IE that Lua Plugins can use.
Could FH provide a Plugin API function that offers access to its Edge browser engine?

it also produces them on 6.7.2. also, jane, the v.1.1 for V6 doesnt actually used fhutils, so it runs with script errors, if you remove the require, don't know you would have to abandon it for 6.

Yes, to maintain FH v5/v6/v7 compatibility just replace
require("fhUtils")
with
require("iuplua")
iup.SetGlobal("CUSTOMQUITMESSAGE","YES")
However, it still produces LOTS of JS and HTML script errors, probably due to using IE.
