Mark,

thanks, it's -s just tried it out... it works like a charm, no need for libURL.

I can't remember what it is, but there's a -v or -s or something you can put in curl string to stop it doing that...

Rob,

try:

pput $QUERY_STRING into searchstring
put "http://www.imdb.com/find?s=tt&q="; & searchstring into searchURL
  put shell("curl" && searchURL) into databack

beware that curl will put more data in the answer such as transfer time. You'll need to use lineoffset to find where to start.

Hmmm, I'm afraid I'm having the same problem, using the script you provided.
 I do get 90% of the html, but the loading process just hangs.

Server:   Mac OS X Tiger 10.4
Client:   Safari or Firefox

Could it be something with Mac OS X?

When I run the below script as a CGI, I get, maybe 90% of the html

character-limit to how much text libURL can retrieve at once?

There's no limit.

As a first step, I'd suggest you retrieve the url before you starting sending back any response from your CGI. Something like this (untested):

#!revolution

on startup

  start using stack "liburl_1.1.5_minus.rev"

  put $QUERY_STRING into searchstring
put "http://www.imdb.com/find?s=tt&q="; & searchstring into searchURL
  put URL searchURL into databack
  if the result <> empty then ##error occurred
   put "error" && the result into databack
  end if

  put "parameter   = " & urlDecode($QUERY_STRING) into tRet
  put cr & "databack = " & databack after tRet

  put "Content-Type: text/plain" & cr
  put "Content-Length:" & length(tRet) & cr & cr

  put tRet

  wait 20 milliseconds ##helps with some servers
  end startup

If this still has problems, let us know.

Cheers
Dave
