HTTP1.0 browsers
Have tested DBMan on Win 95 (without file locking) with both NN4 (HTTP1.0) and IE4 (HTTP1.1) succesfully - very impressive! Tested it on Sun Solaris with only File Locking changed to "1". Now search requests to NN4 (HTTP1.0) give error message "no search terms specified". IE4 works perfectly
An example of the dysfunctional search string is: A HREF="../../cgi-bin/unit_trust/db.cgi?db=10Ychart&uid=default&view_records=1&Unit Trust=ABSA BALANCED FUND"

Did you make that URL, or did the program generate it? If you made it, then that's the problem. Wink

You need to convert spaces to +. Use:

Quote:
HREF="../../cgi-bin/unit_trust/db.cgi?db=10Ychart&uid=default&view_records=1&Unit+Trust=ABSA+BALANCED+FUND"

and it should work. Post a URL if you are still stuck!

Cheers,

Alex

Thanks Alex. Used underscores in place of "+". Worked perfectly! Congrats on a great product.

Cheers
