Any solutions?
You can still insert a breakpoint, but instead of just clicking the Debug button in the On-Rev client, switch to your browser and go to the page <http://yourname.on-rev.com:7309/preprocess.irev?id18=1&m=eph+1%3A1-5%3A1> replacing "yourname" in the URL with your on-rev user name, or replacing the first part of the address with your site address. As regards fixing your script, there are a couple of problems. Firstly, you would need to combine sGET using "&" and "=" in order to get the correct array members. However this doesn't really help, because then you get into a mess with urlencoding. The data is decoded in the $_GET array, so it needs to be urlencoded again. But if you assemble the whole set of parameter data and urlencode it all at once, the & and = signs gets encoded too. So here is what I came up with, which loops through the $_GET array and constructs the URL as it goes. put empty into sGET repeat for each key k in $_GET put "&" & k & "=" & urlencode($_GET[k]) after sGET end repeat put "script.cgi?set=5&lang=en&pos=0&nobar=1&t=4" & sGET into varZ put content varZ The "put content" line at the end is just so you can check what happening. When you are sure that is correct, then you can change it to "put URL". Note that I removed the ampersand that you had at the end of the fixed part of the URL, as I needed it be be added as part of the repeat loop.
