Re: are we ready to fix random sort? - Or did that already happen?

This WebDNA talk-list message is from

2000


It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 32636
interpreted = N
texte = Grant you said to bring up the random sort bug during beta 4 (since it functions differently on each platform).Now? (Or did I miss the fact that you already fixed it and said as much in a beta release annoucement?)Not trying to push, just following your directions. :-)**** Linux, webcat 3.08I have an opt-in subscribers.db which is growing daily. I want to pick a random winner of a prize from that db each week. I use:[Search db=subscribers.db &wnEmailAddressdata=feeling-goods.com &EmailAddresswbrk=@ &subscriberNumsort=1 &subscriberNumsdir=ra &max=1&allhit=1]I hit the template and it displays one record. I force reload the page and get a different result. I force reload a third time and I see the same result as the first loading... I *always* get one of two records (after force reloading about 25 times)... until another subscriber opts in. Then it's a different pair of records that come up every reload. etc.****-John############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
