Re: cart converting to scientific notation format
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2001
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 37885
interpreted = N
texte = I am only using the [cart] to create unique session numbers. In other words, it is in the URL/forms, etc. I am not utilizing the cart files at all. When it starts doing this any new cart value created on any webcat page starts showing up in scientific notation.For example, I can query a test page with no webDNA except for one tag - [cart]. When I hit the page with my browser, it gives me: 9.9785184610026e 015 or equivalent. Restarting Webcat makes it go back to: 99713812813147 or equivalent.It would be helpful for me in troubleshooting to know how WebCat creates a unique [cart] value. Does anyone know how those values are determined? I understand it is some combination of date, time, etc. However, does Webcat have an internal process that creates each cart value based upon previous values created, or does it simply create a new value each time based upon time and date, etc?Thanks.- Trevor--- John Peacock
