Re: [WebDNA] variable name limit - clarification

This WebDNA talk-list message is from

2009


It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 103953
interpreted = N
texte =
Actually, the limit to how long a variable name can be before WebDNA refuses to interpret it. A formvariabl= e is passed okay (confirmed using [formvariables][name]=3D[value]<br>[/formvariables]) But when I att= empt to use that variable, WebDNA just spits it back as uninterpreted bracketed text. =A0 I know from my problematic vari= able that 51 chars is too long. I can do some trial and error, but maybe someone wants to chime in on this and confirm = the maximum value.

Thanks
