Re: [WebDNA] [append] does not add the newline char at the end of the new record?! (which can causes subsequent [search] to fail.)

I am amazed no one has come across this phenom. before me. (Actually I did see it once before on a friend's server, but I did not know it at the time.) Note that the phenom. is intermittent. I am now finding that sometimes the *exact* same data in the db, and the exact same [search ...] WILL later find the record even without its trailing newline char. I am on a shared host here so I am not sure what changed.. I tried [flushdatabse..] when the phenom. was manifesting, but it did stop the failing [search]. If anyone gets a clue as to how/what to predict, please inform. Thanks -G Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
