How about quoting attributes?
<@IF EXPR="<@VERSION> beginswith 5.5">
<@ASSIGN SCOPE="request" NAME="fixEnc" VALUE="META">
<@ELSE>
<@ASSIGN SCOPE="request" NAME="fixEnc" VALUE="METAHTML">
</@IF>

Thank you Bill,
But that part works okay. It's the dynamic setting of the ENCODING
attribute
that is the problem.
The ENCODING attribute does not want to accept a dynamic variable
value, and
in the case of my example the <@VERSION> metatag is not evaluating
- it's
returning the raw text of <@VERSION>, not executing the metatags.
The ENCODING is defaulting to NONE on 5.5, not the META value I'm
trying to
set.
By the way, I've already tried searching the List archive on this,
but no
luck.
Thanks.

Try quoting '5.5' I'm betting 5.5 is getting cast as a number.

Hi All,
I know I said I wouldn't do it again, but I couldn't help
myself - it
felt sooo gooood!
I'm writing Witango code again, but I'll leave you guessing who I'm
working for :-)
Why doesn't the following work? Witango 5.0 or 5.5 on Windows.
<@IF EXPR="<@VERSION> beginswith 5.5"> <@ASSIGN request$fixEnc
VALUE=META> <@ELSE> <@ASSIGN request$fixEnc VALUE=METAHTML> </@IF>
<@ASSIGN request$dynamicStuff VALUE="<@LITERAL VALUE='<@VERSION>'>">
<@VAR request$dynamicStuff ENCODING=@@request$fixEnc>
Has it just been so long since writing Witango code for me, that I
can't remember some basic principle here?
Shouldn't I be able to dynamically set any attribute value for a
Metatag?
Thank you for any feedback.
