texte = We ran into this using WebDNA on OSX-Running webstar. The only solution at that time that we could figure is we shortened all the variable names to fall under the 255 character limit. You may want to ask Dan Schutzsmith for more info if he is still on the list. He's the one that actually dealt with it. You should call webstar as well, or visit their support. There was a time when they released an update for webstar which caused this to occur. It was a cgi-plugin problem which affected everyone who upgraded that was running webdna, lasso, etc. good luck-dylan On May 25, 2004, at 4:08 PM, Patrick Junkroski wrote: > We are using 4.5.1 with WebSTAR 5.3.2 on OS 10.3.3 - dual 1.8 Ghz G5. > 1GB RAM. > > Upon moving several of our customers from our OS 9/ WebDNA 4.0 server > to the above configuration, I began getting reports about sorting > preferences and shownext contexts breaking down. > > I have used this code for years: > > [hideif [numfound]<[_max]] >
