texte = Hello list!I am having a problem designating a sort order from a search form and I cannot see what's wrong. If any of you can tell me what is wrong with the following I would be greatly appreciative. If not then perhaps this is a bug......Tested under the following conditions: Hardware: Umax S900 604e/200, Apple 6150 (tested on both platforms) Software: WebStar 2.01, WebCatalog Plugin 2.0f1, Browsers: CyberDog2.0, Netscape 3.01, IE 3.0
The Results are sorted based on whichever variable I designate as having a VALUE=1. All other variables are ignored. I tried using method=GET just for grins and it made no difference. I have played with it everyway I can think of including turning off the ranking before designating the sort order and retesting it under b15....still a no-go.This same piece of code worked under 1.6.Any idea's????Thanx in advance....Matthew Steele Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
