YA 4.5.1 problem

numero = 58026

texte = We are using 4.5.1 with WebSTAR 5.3.2 on OS 10.3.3 - dual 1.8 Ghz G5. 1GB RAM. Upon moving several of our customers from our OS 9/ WebDNA 4.0 server to the above configuration, I began getting reports about sorting preferences and shownext contexts breaking down. I have used this code for years: [hideif [numfound]<[_max]]

More Results: [math show=F]location=0[/math][shownext position=begin] [math]location=[location]+1[/math] [/shownext][shownext position=middle][math]location=[location]+1[/math] [/shownext][shownext position=end] [math]location=[location]+1[/math] [/shownext] [/hideif] It has worked universally. However, with a few clients, the form variables are so numerous as to make a URL that exceeds 255 characters. It never mattered on the old server; Results always worked as needed. But the long URL is the only explanation I can come up with for it to have stopped working on the new server. I've replaced the code with this: [hideif [numfound]<[_max]]

More Results: [math show=F]location=0[/math][shownext position=begin]
[formvariables][/formvariables]
[/shownext]
[shownext position=middle][math]location=[location]+1[/math][/ shownext][shownext position=end]
[formvariables][/formvariables]
[/shownext]
[/hideif] So that form variables are passed as hidden inputs instead of via a URL. However, I can't get it to look "pretty". My questions are: 1) Why did this happen when we moved to the new configuration? Has anyone else experienced this problem? 2) Can someone help me improve my table to make this look nicer? 3) We purchased 6.0 but I've been afraid to install it because I want to get on top of this (and other) problems first. Does anyone know if 6.0 "fixes" this, or if there are other caveats I need to heed? Your help is appreciated.
