using WC to create a DB online

texte = I want to provide the ability for someone to create a new database on my server via their web browser using WebCat 3.0 commands (Mac/WebStar server). My approach can be illustrated using the following simplified example. My intent in this example is to create a new database called new.db with the field names name and email and then create a record whose values were myName and myEmail. I was hoping that WebCat would open the new file, convert it to tab-delimited format and add the record. Here's the code:[writefile file=new.db]name,email[/writefile] [waitforfile file=new.db]] [append db=new.db]name=myName&email=myEmail[/append] [/waitforfile]Any suggestions for what I'm doing wrong or maybe a better approach? I suspect that the fields are not being seen as database fields.Thanks,Brian Wachter Stoneport Technologies, LLC (207) 772-3826 ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
