You could do: newlookup => 1
If the reseller chooses to use the lookups that are not validated on their side, but speed up the lookups themselves, they can go with that, if newlookup => 0 (or not present at all), the old style lookup could be used, and thus not affecting any reseller. This wouldn't really affect the API not the old client versions. mayo > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Charles Daminato > Sent: March 2, 2002 5:49 AM > To: Christopher Hicks > Cc: OpenSRS dev-list > Subject: Re: searching for TLDs incorrectly > > > We're working on a solution that will not drastically alter > the API (we do > have many legacy resellers to keep in mind) > > However, as an enhancement (addition, not alteration) to the > API, I'll see > what I can do here :) > > Charles Daminato > TUCOWS Product Manager > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > On Sat, 2 Mar 2002, Christopher Hicks wrote: > > > On Sat, 2 Mar 2002, John Keegan wrote: > > > > > This issue seems to affect prefixes as well as suffixes, > > > tucows.com.com is available... tucows.com.com.com is also > available, > > > and so on, and so on. > > > > Could we change the protcol to have two fields for the > domain lookup? > > domain => 'tucows', > > tld => 'com', > > > > Since neither should contain periods it should be very fast > to check for > > it. > > > > -- > > </chris> > > > > "Outside of a dog, a man's best friend is a good book. > > Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read." - Groucho Marx > > > > > >
