texte = There's another way to do some cool data passing with forms, too ...Since WebCat doesn't care where its form data comes from, a form can be sent to a WebCat server from ANY browser. Which means you can collect data in a form residing on a non-WebCat server, then send that form data to a WebCat server.Or you can pass data from one WebCat server to another using forms, and have WebCat interpret the form variables at either location -- or at both locations.Now that I think about it, this technique might even make it possible to run duplicate WebCat sites in order to effectively distribute the server load across multiple round-robin WebCat servers. All appends, replaces and deletes could be performed on the WebCat server receiving the original form data, then the same data could be sent to each of the duplicate servers in succession and the same apend, replace or delete could be performed on those servers as well, thus continuously synchronizing all the servers ...Sincerely, Ken Grome ken@iav.com 808-737-6499 WebDNA Solutions http://webdna.net/
