WebCatalog 3.0.7 on Solaris (and WebCat still keeps quiting, with no response from SM yet).Hi All,I looked at Micheals code fromthe archive and have only (I think) one minor problem with adapting it for what I am tring to do.
I am trying to navigate down the hierarchy of a hard drive to get the file names and stick them in a database. This is done with [listfiles]. The other thing I am trying to do is create a unique [cart] number for each of these files as I build the database. Unfortunately it appears that looping through a [listfiles] doesn't cause [cart] to refresh I guess because it is the same single page.So the question is, how do I get a unique [cart] value for each file? I want to use the [cart] as I will later be manually adding new files to this database and want to insure that all of the numbers are unique (as described they will be if I continue to use the [cart] tag).Thanks!
