Hi Greg, Under Windows/Unix/MacOSX : If you need to link Metacard apps to the web, try the ".php sockets listener" way, witch works greatly fine (Apache, mod_php, the .php script, the mc app) without using the libURL (developped and used from two years ago as an alternative to the http build-in MC abilities because, i never found the right way to clean handle the POST method, directly from within MC). See <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg01275.html> about this. Under MacOS 8.1 and more : You can link Metacard apps to the web - trough WebSTAR 3 or more - in using an appleevent to get the httpd and the mc app speaking together.
