Clearly URL is not the issue here. You're a credible webdna user with experience, and you understand that [url] is clearly not the issue here, and you have no reason to report this kind of bug or problem unless you really and truly did not make any changes in your webdna code from one version to the next -- yet you're suddenly seeing changes in the way webdna 4.5.0 works compared to webdna 4.5.1.If you're seeing this problem clearly as you say you are, without any coding changes, and the only changes you've made is to replace 4.5.0 with 4.5.1, then I would say that SMSI ought to consider the possibility that these tests are showing them a problem they have not reported or explained -- and THEY (not us) should be the ones making an effort to investigate this problem and report their results, not only to you personally but to everyone who has upgraded to 4.5.1. -- Sincerely, Kenneth Grome--------------------------------------------------- WebDNA Professional Training and Development Center Cebu City, Philippines +63 (32) 255-6921 Wholesale WebDNA programming for only $20 per hour! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
