RE: V3R2 to V4R2 - HTTP gets all messed up.... help?

Ken, thanks for your help.

It has to be a bug, and it worked before even with sending seperate
paratmeters seperated by the "+" sign.  For example...

?RPG+0000001

will pass two parameters (or should..haha) to the *ENTRY portion of my
RPG program (RPG and 0000001).  But, it fills the last seven characters
of the first variable, which is 10 long, with X'00' instead of X'40',
which it did before.

I would use C, but we don't have a C compiler.  Also, speed doesn't seem
to be a problem for us using RPG/IV.  (Running on a 50S, and even or 30S
was lickety split!)

Thanks.. if you find anything, please let me know.  I've tried using all
the different modes on the EXEC statement in the HTTP configuration
(%%EBCDIC%%, etc) but the only one that made a difference was
%%BINARY%%, and then it was stuff I didn't want.

On V3R2, it had to have been doing translation differently, and now on
V4R2 it just doesn't work the same, and I'm getting frustrated...
YIKES!!!

Thanks again.
