Once again, Websnap does not behave the same in Delphi 7 as it did in
Delphi 6. I have verified this by taking our production code from Delphi
6 and compiling it in Delphi 7. Nothing changed between the two versions
except I removed the email component which was dropped for Delphi 7.

I don't expect that anyone can help me with this. I am just posting
because I am frustrated. Frustrated with Websnap. Frustrated with
Borland. Frustrated with a company that can't be bothered to ensure that
it's enterprise component set behaves the same between versions of it's
IDE.

To my mind this is not something trivial. Nor is this the first instance
of differing behaviour. Nor do I think that it is likely that we are
trying to use Websnap incorrectly in this particular instance.

In Delphi 6, if an error was added to a dataset adapter, and the page
displayed those errors via an errorlist, then instead of going to the
"success" page after performing the action (well failing to really) it
would go back to the original page and display the errors.

Delphi 7 = NOT ANYMORE.

Now it just goes to the next page (as specified by the PageName property
of the submit button) regardless of the success or failure of the
action.

Now we all know that Websnap is rubbish, and not worth continued
development, but I would have thought that a responsible company would
have at least ensured that their obscelete product would still work the
way it used to IF they continue to distribute it in future versions of
their software. Better that they had dumped it completely from Delphi 7
and been honest.
