RE: [WEB400] RE: CGIDEV2 problems when updating to 9/2004 release

[Mike Skvarenina <mskvarenina@xxxxxxx>]

Bob,

Since I'll be using your tool shortly, can you please post or send me a
sample HTTP config file so I can see what's actually needed.  As I mentioned
I was to remove all the "exceed" directives that aren't necessary.

Yes, CGILIB uses the cgiSetProp() procedure to do that as follows:
  Callp  cgiSetProp(CGI_SECTION: '<!-- S_')

Now if you avoid the S_ in the section name change here, you could
inadvertently cause all comments in the HTML to be considered section names.

I use the CoffeeCup HTML editor, and find it quite handy.  It has a
text editor but can syntax check HTML statements, and it has a viewer
mode so you can see what you are doing.  It is pretty basic, and
pretty inexpensive.

The trick - I changed my section delimiter in CGIDEV2 to <!-- S_  so
the editors think the section headers are comments.  I am pretty sure
this can be done with Mr. Cozzi's tool as well.
--->  callp     gethtmlifs('/bpcsweb/ORD52a.html': '<!-- S_')

The header line for the PosTo section is 
<!-- S_PosTo  **** Position To Section -->

Then in the editor you put together the single element components. 
The substitution variables are   It can be a bit confusing when (for
instance) you have multiple sections that might start a table, but you
get used to it as you learn to get more complex in your programs.  In
very complex HTML files I have sometimes added unused sections to
complete structures (i.e. forms and tables) to make the editor display
things below properly.
For instance, if I have 3 possible table headers, I will have 2
"dummy" table footers sections in the HTML file so that the 3 "orphan"
<TABLE> statements don't confuse the editor.

Hope this helps.
