But when I use $append within a form on a page that is [protect]ed, webcat throws up the IIS-forms based page asking for my username and password. No matter what I type in, the page does NOT pass this protection. Then only way I got it to append was to (1) change the preferences to allow for anonymous appends which I don't like and (2) use the [append] context.My question is: Can I use the NT version with IIS and use a form based append command on a [protect]ed page without adding append to my webcat preferences for anonymous access? It seems to me that using forms based append is not anonymous and is coming from the tpl file, not a URL. Is this an IIS thing?Have a great weekend everyone,Olin.....................................................................
