texte = Grant - WebSite allows me to save the CGI-created text as files, as they would be sent out by WS; it's under Logging options (API/CGI Execution). I realize that IIS should be acting the same way; is there a similar option under IIS for CGI debugging? No other CGI emits cr/cr/lf under WebSite, so that kind of limits it to WebCat.Can I run $WebCat.exe as a standalone app in a DOS box? Hmm, it appears that I can. Look at the included file, generated by running $WebCat.exe > testfile.txtHere it is (using Less.exe):HTTP/1.0 200 OK^M Content-type: text/html Content-Length: 120^M ^M Error: template '' not foundError: template security preferences do not allow re mote access to files with that extensionThose ^M's are embedded additional carriage returns! If I look at the testfile.txt file in hex mode, I see the exact 0D 0D 0A (i.e. cr/cr/lf). Why IIS is filtering these out is beyond me; normal CGI behavior is for the webserver to transmit exactly what the CGI generates. Doesn't suprise me that IIS is messing with the content.So, it has to be something in the NT version of $WebCat.exe!QEDJohn PeacockGrant Hulbert wrote: > > >I can 100% prove that WebCat is emitting the cr/cr/lf pairs, because I > >just turned on CGI debugging and see them in the raw file that WebCat > >creates.
