Shane. Yes. According to the "Programmers Guide:" * Custom scopes are less restrictive than other scopes because they apply to all of Witango Server, regardless of the domain name. * * *
* Custom scopes fall outside of the Witango scope hierarchy; therefore, only explicitly specifying the scope when returning the variable allows Witango Server to find the variable. You must specify a custom scope to access a variable assigned to it; custom scopes are not searched when variables are assigned or referenced without scope. * In my experience, the values at the previous normal shutdown are automatically restored on the next startup. In fact, if I changed the values of some of these, and Witango suffered an abnormal shutdown, after the restart I would find values had reverted to what there had been saved as at the *prior* normal shutdown. So at startup, I rebuild all of the custom scope variable through STARTUPURL.
