Example: append db=login.db]SKULOG=[url][SKUvar][/url]&USERNAMEa=[url][USERNAMEa][/url]&PASSWORDa=[url][PASSWORDa][/url]&LEVEL=[url][LEVEL][/url]&DATE_ENTERED=[DATE]&ENTERED_TIME=[TIME]&ADMIN_USER=[url][ADMIN_USER][/url]/append

This will show me what's being added to the database. It might be something else causing your append time to break. Additionally, my college professor told me (a very long time ago) never to use real words as variables, or at the beginning of variable names, or as part of a variable name if after a special character. His reasoning was because you never really know if the database interpreter will accidentally mis identify your variables. I have taken his philosophy to heart and it has saved me many many times. (IMO) In your example above I would have had variable USRNAMEA, PASSWD, ENTERED_DT, ENTERED_TM and ADM_USR Matthew Perosi sbraun wrote: > Hi Folks, > > I'm having a slight problem. > When I execute an [append] tag, [TIME] does not work. > When I execute a [replace] tag, [TIME] will work. > In the line 'The real time is: [TIME]', [TIME] will work. > > Here is my code, Does anyone see what I'm doing wrong? > > Thanks much, > sfb > > > > > > in file #1: ( &ENTERED_TIME=[TIME] is not working) > > > The real time is: [TIME] > [append db=login.db]SKULOG=[url][SKUvar][/url]&USERNAMEa=[url] > [USERNAMEa][/url]&PASSWORDa=[url][PASSWORDa][/url]&LEVEL=[url][LEVEL] > [/url]&DATE_ENTERED=[DATE]&ENTERED_TIME=[TIME]&ADMIN_USER=[url] > [ADMIN_USER][/url][/append] > > > > > > in file #2: ( &ENTERED_TIME=[TIME] is working) > > [replace db=login.db&eqSKULOGdatarq=[SKULOG]]SKULOG=[url][SKULOG][/ > url]&USERNAMEa=[url][USERNAMEa][/url]&PASSWORDa=[url][PASSWORDa][/url] > &LEVEL=[url][LEVEL][/url]&ADMIN_USER=[url][ADMIN_USER][/url]&MOD_DATE= > [DATE]&MOD_TIME=[TIME][/replace] > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------- > This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to > the mailing list . > To unsubscribe, E-mail to: > To switch to the DIGEST mode, E-mail to > > Web Archive of this list is at: http://webdna.smithmicro.com/ > > -- Matthew A Perosi Psi Prime, Inc. http://www.psiprime.com 323 Union Blvd. Totowa, NJ 07512 P: 973.225.9870 F: 973.413.8217 ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
