title. The correct syntax is[append db=xxx.db]title=[title]&sku=[sku]&description=[description]&Category=[category]&taxabl e=[taxable]&price=[price]&unitShipCost=[unitShipCost]&hasPhoto=[hasPhoto]&ph otoName=[photoName][/append](no carriage returns anywhere).WebCatalog never 'throws away' any characters that you might think are extraneous, such as carriage returns. The reason: you may want to put actual carriage returns into a field in your database someday, or be able to otherwise very accurately control the exact characters that get written to a file or a field.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
