I'm trying to create a url to connect to an http server. If I use this code:OK, I see now. What you need to do is work out the exact URL that you would need if entering it into a browser address.
get theLink
then, everything works fine. The variable "theLink" contains a fully formed
url such as:
"http://www.server.com/path/path.
I'm trying to extend this url by adding the value of another variable "subID" which is entered by the user. This additional value needs to be added to the original url without breaking it and then initiate a get command.
So, the end result will be:
http://www.server.com/path/path/uservalue
For example, to search Google for RunRev, you need the following URL: <http://www.google.com/search?q=RunRev>.
If I was allowing a user to do a Google search by clicking on a linked word or phrase in a field from my program, I would have something like this:
on linkClicked pLink
put "http://www.google.com/search?q="; & URLencode(pLink) & ">" into tURL
get tURL
-- do stuff with it
end linkClicked
Test the links in a browser first and look at the address bar to see the exact format that the particular site needs. Have you script "put" the text it is going to use for getting the URL and keep testing that text in a browser until it does what you want. Then switch to using Rev to "get" the page.
Cheers, Sarah
