Re: Trigger Output
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2003
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 52272
interpreted = N
texte = Is this a 'secure' URL you are trying to hit with a trigger? If so, this will not work. Pre 5.1 versions of WebDNA cannot hit secure URLs ( https://.... ) via a trigger. -----Original Message----- From: Chris List Recipient [mailto:chris-list2@surfcity.com] Sent: Friday, August 15, 2003 8:53 AM To: WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com Subject: Re: Trigger Output It is a separate file just for trigger processing. The HTML is simply so I can see what it does when I run the trigger manually (via the URL in a web browser). The WRITEFILE worked great. Good idea. My problem now is that the WRITEFILE file is NOT created when the trigger is processed via the WebCat engine. It is only created when I run the trigger manually (via the URL in a web browser). When the trigger is run the next trigger run time is set properly so it looks like it ran. Yet it appears that it didn't actually do anything at all (which was my original problem). And, yes, all my other triggers are processing properly. -Chris -----Original Message----- From: Kenneth Grome [mailto:kengrome@webdna.net] Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2003 5:54 PM To: WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com Subject: Re: Trigger Output >I have a trigger that operates differently when called by the >WebCatalog engine and when I launch it in my web browser.

You could put the entire page into a writefile context so it gets written to a file, then you can look at the file in any old text editor. But like I said, pages called by triggers don't need any HTML in them. Usually I use separate pages for triggers since no one gets to see the results anyways. -- Sincerely, Kenneth Grome ------------------------------------------------------------- Outsource your WebDNA programming for $18 an hour or less! ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
