Re: [OT] Form POSTing with LONG variable
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2007
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 68789
interpreted = N
texte = It's V6. The issue though, is that this data isn't being posted from my server, it's coming over from a third-party server, and for some reason it's taking 45 secs+ to load the landing page. Because a lot of it is depending on the third-party, it's proving very hard to trouble shoot. Mark. On 11 Apr 2007, at 16:18, devaulw@onebox.com wrote: > Which version of WebCatalog are you using?
