I'm having trouble figuring out why my code using HTMLViewer works only
part of the time.
Here's the important part of the code:
M = "<html><head>"
M = M + "<base href=" + chr(34) +
"http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~fisher/cgi-bin/"; _
+ chr(34) + ">"
M = M + "</head>"
M = M + "<body>"
M = M + "<a href=gnt?id=" + TheBook + TheChapter + TheVerse _
+ "&xy=><img src=http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~fisher/tmpdir/gnt/"; _
+ TheBook + TheChapter + TheVerse + ".gif" _
+ " ismap border=0></a><br>"
M = M + "</body> </html>"
FileToAccess = GetFolderItem("")
HTMLViewer1.LoadPage M, FIleToAccess
TheBook, TheChapter, and TheVerse are strings of two-digit numbers,
referring to books of the New Testament. For example, for John 1:14,
TheBook = "04" (since John is the 4th book of the N.T.), TheChapter =
"01", and TheVerse "14". The purpose of the program is to fetch a
particular verse (in graphical format) from the Web site of the late
Tony Fisher of the University of York.
Here's my problem: Sometimes my program works, and sometimes it
doesn't. Sometimes it is able to retrieve the relevant GIF file, and
sometimes it isn't. (It displays a brokin graphic icon instead of the
relevant GIF picture.)
But at a different time of day, it seems that it may be successful where
it was unsuccessful before. That makes me wonder if it's a timeout
issue, but HTMLViewer doesn't seem to have anything related to timeout.
(HTTPSocket does include reference to timeout, but I'm not using
HTTPSocket in this program.)
For example, a few minutes ago the program was able to retrieve Phil.
1:1 (i.e., "110101") but not Phil. 4:4 ("110404"). Yet earlier today it
had no trouble handling Phil. 4:4.
Anyone have any suggestions?
