I could. Here's a practical example from Spider, my web server. It's of the
'post function, which doesn't do much at the moment, merely returning a
form's POST-ed data. Here's the function. Note the 'map and 'list:
Post: func [Request [block!]] [
Respond/Header/Entity OK [Content-Type "text/html"] reduce [
HTML [
title "Request"
body
h1 "Request"
list map Request func [Text] [
pre Text
]
]
]
]
Which generates the following nice html (other tags snipped for clarity):
<h1>Request</h1>
<ul>
<li><pre>POST /MyTest HTTP/1.1</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg,
application/pdf, */*</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>Referer: http://localhost:8080/Form.html</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>Accept-Language: en-nz</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98)</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>Host: localhost:8080</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>Content-Length: 54</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>Connection: Keep-Alive</pre>
</li>
<li><pre>name=Andrew+Martin&sex=M&income=%2450%2C001+and+higher</pre>
</li>
</ul>
My version of 'map follows my .sig.
