Re: Witango-Talk: Losing search arg values

[John McGowan]

Yes, I never felt like distinguishing between search and post args did anything but cause problems for our developers.  If you're going to try to use it as a "security" measure, it's a joke, because if someone figures out that they need a post arg, they can fake it very easily if they know anything about HTTP. /John Ben Johansen wrote: I agree with John here. I use @ARG exclusively I use this little snippet to see what args are coming over. Note: the comment is if you want to distinguish between search and post args Set #2 to "search" or "post" and uncomment if you want to specify <hr> <@ASSIGN NAME="theArgs" VALUE="<@ARGNAMES>" SCOPE="request"> <@COMMENT><@ASSIGN NAME="theArgs" VALUE="<@FILTER ARRAY='theArgs' EXPR='#2=post'>" SCOPE="request"> </@COMMENT> <@FOR START="1" STEP="1" STOP="<@NUMROWS ARRAY='theArgs'>"> @@request$theArgs[<@CURROW>,1] = <@ARG @@request$theArgs[<@CURROW>,1]> (@@request$theArgs[<@CURROW>,2])<br> </@FOR> <hr> Ben Johansen - http://www.pcforge.com Authorized Witango & MDaemon Reseller Available for Web App. Developement -----Original Message----- From: John McGowan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 11, 2005 9:29 AM To: witango-talk@witango.com Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: Losing search arg values Bryan, Does it work if you use @ARG instead of @SEARCHARG? /John Bryan Hughes wrote: I have the taf looking up all the information, I just pass a pointer http://localhost/svcs/web/irprocess.taf?drv_id=18393&proxy=1 Only two args.

This allows me to have the database trigger web applications. I have it working fine for three TAFs but another one will not recognize the search arg values passed to it. I've even opened up a web browser and tried to manually call the TAF passing the URL encoded search args with no luck. @SEARCHARGNAMES gives me an array with the names of the search args but when I use @SEARCHARG to dislpay the value it's empty. The same logic works on three other TAFs. Anybody had any experience with TAFs losing search arg values?
