texte = Update on the listfiles bug: These do not work: [listfiles showinvisibles=3DF&path=3D] [listfiles showinvisibles=3DF&path=3D&] But this works: [listfiles path=3D&showinvisibles=3DF] So it seems that webdna requires the path=20 parameter to be the *first* one in the listfiles=20 tag. But this does not comply with everything=20 we've learned about webdna that tells us we can=20 list parameters in any order. So why can't we list them in any order in listfiles? I think there's a couple of places in a search=20 that require parameters to be listed in a special=20 order too. Does anyone know how many other=20 places this kind of problem exists? If so,=20 please tell us so we can document these kinds of=20 bugs, then others won't have to waste their time=20 screwing around with this kind of crap. There's one problem I know of already in another=20 context, it's listwords. I always put the=20 delimiters parameter first, followed by the words=20 parameter, because of a problem I experienced=20 years ago that made this context fail when I did=20 it the other way around.
