Two points to consider here: 1- There is definitely a bug in [thisurlplusget] because it appends "lusget]" to the end of the interpreted value when it should not. This is an issue with a simple workaround, so until the bug gets fixed I'm using the first of these two workarounds: [getchars start=8&from=end][thisurlplusget][/getchars] [middle endbefore=lusget][thisurlplusget][/middle] 2- Since [formvariables] fails to display the name=value parameters that appear after the ? in the originally requested URL, my first thought is that this is also a bug. After all, shouldn't [formvariables] display these name=value pairs? Maybe now! After all, this is a special situation in which the SERVER (not WebDNA) redirects the request to WebDNA's error page. So maybe, just maybe, these name=value pairs are NOT being passed as "formvariables" from lighttpd to WebDNA. If this is true, it would explain why the [formvariables] context does not display them. But if they are not formvariables, what are they??? They are certainly being passed to the page somehow, because [thisurlplusget] is displaying them. In fact, [thisurlplusget] seems to be the ONLY way I can display then in v7. So the big question for me is: How are they getting there, and how can WebDNA access them without using [thisurlplusget]? Or is this actually a bug in the formvariables context in v7 after all? Chris, do you have any insights on this issue? Sincerely, Kenneth Grome
