Witango-Talk: <@URL> + XML

2008-02-08 Thread Chuck Lockwood
We are using a webservice that requires that the XML be passed in as a get, not a post argument (so it seems). The below works until the <@ARG testXML> gets over 2000 characters then it starts getting truncated. Am I nuts or does witango do this? <@ASSIGN request$method_response VALUE="<@U

Hi Chuck, Unfortunately there is an unspecified limit to how long you can make a URL. GET requests were never meant to support long strings of data, thus the POST request. People try, but eventually somewhere in the URL's travels a proxy, router or gateway somewhere will start truncating the UR

When you pass xml like that, it has to be a single line, no returns in it, and possibly encoded. I don't know if witango <@url has a limit on get arg size. -- Robert Garcia President - BigHead Technology VP Application Development - eventpix.com 13653 West Park Dr Magalia, Ca 95954 ph: 530.6

I have some webservices I use, with actual banks, like FDR, and cardservices, that require HORRENDOUSLY long get arguments. The only time there is a limit, is if it is imposed by the client, or the server. So if the server has no limit, and I would imagine this is the case with a webservice

I might be way off base here, but maybe try assigning the XML into a variable instead of an argument? <@ASSIGN name="TestXMLVar" scope="request" value="<@ARG TestXML>"> Then in the <@URL> assignment.. &xml=@@request$TestXMLVar If that doesn't work perhaps do this in the <@URL>? &xml='

Hi Robert, I think you're quite right, the limitation is probably on Witango. But Chuck, was your length testing with @URL or just hand-crafted in MSIE? Here's a link to some interesting bits of information about URL limits. http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/misc/urllength.html Obviously browsers
