I could hide the fields that have large values, but it would be preferable to have this happen automatically so it's one less thing I have to remember to do. > - If not, would it be sufficient to trim just the values inside > dictionaries, but not the overall dictionaries themselves? Yes, I'm pretty sure that would work. I have relatively few session variables, but the values can be very large. > - If not, did you have an algorithm in mind? How about this: wherever we're calling "repr" when we're generating the exception report, we should check the length of the resulting string and trim it if it's too long. I think we should add a config var to control that maximum length. >From glancing at the code, it looks like there are two place that need to do the trimming: WebKit.ExceptionHandler.repr() and WebUtils.Funcs.htmlForDict(). - Geoff _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
