texte = Useage question, not a bugSetting up a download directory and testing Webcatalog vs using latestNetfinder. IE: the fewer .acgi's/plug-ins the less chance of crashes: )Besides doing a [lookup] based on the file name into a data base can allowme to give a better description of the file then with netfinder. And Ireally miss my [includes] using netfinder :)The question is if I use the [fullpath] context tag the downloaded filename looks like this *dltest*ec-296.zip on my hard drive. Using a defindedfull path in html and then using [filename] the downloaded file name ondisk looks like this ec-296.zip (no *'s or long file name) Looking at thedocs on [listfiles] it reads.You may specify an absolute or relative path to the folder, and the foldername itself may be a WebCatalog [xxx] tag.Looking at this line I could see how I could put this all in a data baseand access various folders from a search.The above file is a folder named dltest on my root. And placing the mouseover the link it shows up as ftp://www.panavise.com/:dltest:ec-296.zip. Iassume those : get converted to *'s. in some hex or ask-key conversion.If I have to use just the [filename] vs using the [fullpath] so as not tomess up people on win3.1 when they download so be it. But was looking overthe [xxx] tags looking for something to strip down to just the file name ondisk. Using [filename] gave thesame results as using the [fullpath] with or without using [url][/url].Before I go nuts and create a series of download directories and so forthwant to make sure I didn't miss something in the docs.TIAPS: You people using netfinder and very large files like we do (1.8 megsfor the one above) think about giving estimated download times[math][size]/whatever[/math] for your 28.8 dial up people. Real nice touchI think. The more I use Webcatalog and get to know it the more I loveit!!!!!
