Thanks Dave and Bruce for the info... This (below) was very interesting;
>(By the way, the engine makes two calls to the url to do this. First it retrieves the entire url from the server, then writes back the retrieved data with the new data appended. So this may not offer the efficiency you expected.) Yes, I was looking for efficiency as well as privacy (not to mention simplicity!). I didn't want to do this via getting a cgi; as I understand it, those calls can be read. (is this still true if one does it through rev and not with the user's browser?) However, if there is a question of some users' system settings blocking this, as Bruce said, then I will rework it into a cgi call. There are some other parts of the program that use 'put...after url' for updating records, so I'll rework those as well. very useful info. Thanks. tm _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
