texte = This problem sounds like "showpage" was removed from the "Command =20 Security" area of the WebDNA Preferences. Under the checked radio =20 button labeled "Only the following commands may be issued by non-=20 administrators" the text box must at a bare minimum include =20 "ShowPage". Unless you've got an old site that relies on URL-based =20 commands, ShowPage is the only command that needs to be listed there. Also, the "Maximum found items" only applies to URL-based Search =20 commands. Check the docs to understand the difference between URL-based commands =20= and in-line contexts for executing WebDNA. URL-based commands are =20 generally not recommended, primarily for security reasons. In the =20 early days of WebCatalog (the original product name), URL-based =20 commands were the primary way of using WebDNA (originally the name of =20= the coding language used by WebCatalog, used as the product name after =20= Smith Micro bought the product from Pacific Coast Software). I'd actually suggest to the WebDNA dev team that perhaps the URL-based =20= commands should be deprecated and removed from version 7 of WebDNA.
