Do incoming form variables override text >variables on the page?Apparently not ... :(It doesn't matter if the insecuretextvars pref is set to 0 or 1, because it does the same thing in both cases when using beta4. Here's what I did:1- I used webcat3 first, and of course it works properly -- it retrieves only the records matching both the c1 and c2 formvariable values.2- I switch to beta4 with insecuretextvars pref set to 0, and the search retrieves all records in the db, as expected.3- I quit beta4, then I change the insecuretextvars value from 0 to 1, then I re-launch beta4 -- and it *still* retrieves all records in the db. It acts like I never changed anything.This is the exact code that's been running perfectly under webcat3 for 11 months on this website:[text multi=t]c1=&c2=[/text][search db=catalog.db&neSKUdatarq=[blank]&allblnk=T[showif [c1]!]&eqc1datarq=[url][c1][/url][/showif][showif [c2]!]&eqc2datarq=[url][c2][/url][/showif]&asSKUsort=1&startat=[start]&max=9]================================ Kenneth Grome, WebDNA Consultant 808-737-6499 http://webdna.net ================================############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
