Great question(s) Sharriff. We will have some answers in the very near
future. We have an upcoming Runtime (i.e., encapsulated) version of
REBOL/Command that will be available and allow you to distribute your

It´s stated somewhere that HASH! and LIST! types are better for data
retieval, by what factor and why exactly? are there any special sort or
retieve commands or functions that are not documented? I habe´nt found any

Hi guys!
Sorry to bother you with this newbie question:
Why does one have to "make object!" after a "decode-cgi" ? just curious...

Though, as noted on an earlier message on this list, doing so means that you
will only get one value from a multi-select input.

Parse rules are made up from a dialect specific to parse. That is, the

instead interpreted by the parse function. When the parse function

you can access the form values like this:

Hi Sharriff,
1. Thanks for the link to the SocketServer site. Interesting stuff.

LIST! is faster when it comes to adding and removing elements. If you have a
lot of add/remove operations on a series than a value of type list! should be
faster.

I have created a function which returns something strange when I use
rejoin.
The function is called build-html.r which builds a markup statement.
Here is the console result. Notice the closing bracket for the opening
tag is strangely moved to the end of the rejoined string:

Hi gmassar
Some of the series functions work differently for lists then other series.
From the new Core PDF doc:

reset to
the tail of the list"
So using your example:
list: make list! [1 2 3 4]
== make list! [1 2 3

Hi gmassar,
it's not quite as drastic as that.
After removing from the list, do

Also try:

compare to

Another surprise:

Thanks, guys, for the answer. I didn't think about there being a datatyping
problem, but that makes perfect sense now.
A tag! is meant to represent only one tag. If you want to have more than one
tag in an HTML element, you need to make a string. So it's very easy to
correct your function.
I fear that anyone reading my last few posts may conclude that I'm
a real grouch. (Of course, it's not necessary to read my emails to
draw that conclusion! ;-)
