what tag do you use for templates? Is it comment tag? I can see e.g. 
<!--[snih_tabulka_zacatek]--> and some other <% ......> I would like 
to know (dis)advantages of both. Thanks a lot

I used to know how to do this... but can't remember it anymore - 
how do I perform a POST to a webpage?

Wasn't it something like    read/custom http://www.Whatever.com
 [Post {This=That}]

Hmm.. for <form name="def" id="def" action=planet.cgi?1213&adr method=POST 
autocomplete=off>, the server doesn't seem to like   read/custom 
http://www.territories3069.com/3.x/planet.cgi?1213&adr[POST {ddr=1212}]

It gives a 405 error (Method not allowed)
All the arguments are there (I checked with a reb-proxy, the page 
itself is very ugly)
I tried making a low-level version (with TCP), but the data it wants 
is inside Port/state/inBuffer, when sent in the browser.. and simply 
setting it in the Port doesn't seem to work

I think I make post a string or literal     i.e   [ 'POST

Wierd - Literal seems to work
Well, it didn't error...
... but it doesn't seem to have worked correctly here.  But it's 
a step in the right direction, at least
It worked!
Not sure which permutation of the code did it, but it did work... 
 Thanks!

since it's a dialect it should be [ post ... ]

but if you need to evaluate the contents of the block, it should 
be 

reduce [ 'post post-contents ]

Good news / bad news

The good news is that MS are beta-ing Internet Explorer 7, so it's 
a good chance to see how well your website may look in that browser 
(like it or not it is liekly to become a dominent browser)
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie7/default.mspx


The bad news is  two-fold: they have fixed most of the well-known 
CSS hacks; if you use the hacks your site may not render properly 
in IE7.  Second, it is not easy to install IE7 alongside any existing 
IE version -- it's a reversible upgrade (in theory), so you might 
want to try it on a spare partition/machine.

Windows only at this stage, of course.

I"m having lots of crashes in FF .. so I'll likely give it a go.
It may be that FF's main contribution is to force MS to upgrade IE 
!

crashes with FF? :-) I run Mozilla each day, heavily with tons of 
tabs, windows, jumping here or there, never seen a crash for past 
year or two ... I would not expect FF being worse in that regard?
Graham

Yeah .. get couple of crashes per day.

Could be latest update, I got a crash today. Shortly afterwards a 
notification of a new bufix release.

Does FF handle ASP pages? Out of the box, or is a plugin required?
Rebolek
2-Feb-2006
[970]
ASP pages? They're generated on server, aren't they?
Anton
2-Feb-2006
[971]
yeah, server-side aren't they Active Server Pages ?
Rebolek

so the result is normal HTML

Incidently, it is (despite what MS says) possible to install multiple 
versions of IE....It just isn't always easy.

My online bank account uses ASP to generate monthly statements, which 
works fine from Opera, IE and Safari - but fails under FF with a 
"Could not open xyz.asp"; so I figured it had a problem with ASP 
pages in general.
Graham

I use a number of sites which don't work in FF.  Annoying.. but ASP 
.. not seen that one as opposed to a site problem.

Are you sure that's not just a transient problem ?
(I suppose you switched to try another browser straight away.)
Ashley

Yep.
Anton

Mmm. Trying spoofing as IE.
Graham

You need to give the FF team your bank account details so that they 
can try it out :)

It could be detecting the browser (possibly poorly) and generating 
a different page. Maybe compare the page sources.
I figured out a fairly fast compare method using my text editor.

New to FF, what's the manu option to spoof as IE?
Anton
2-Feb-2006
[984x3]
I know there is (or was recently) a plugin to easily set the spoof.
Sorry, it's an extension I think. Go to Tools/Extensions/Get more 
extensions.
A new webpage pops up at addons.mozilla.org,  search for "spoof"

Thanks, I'll try it out next month. ;)

:) no worries
I can write my own damn browser which damn well works, damn it !

I have to occassionally access websites that make heroic efforts 
only to work in IE. Banks mainly.

They sniff the user-agent  ID string....If you try faking that they 
feed you javascript that crashes other browsers.
Somehow, they think insisting on IE is safer.

Means I have to manually set their sites to the most restricted set 
of IE settings possible -- after all, why should I trust a bank that 
thinks that way?
Anton

Very interesting. I never had a problem with my bank and Firefox.

You've got a modern bank!
Anton

:) no no, not a piggy-bank either - an actual, governement-backed 
bank.

Firefox has been crashing multiple times a day for me as well.  Mozilla 
isn't an option as it is just too bloated and slow.  I keep thinking 
of  using Opera but it seems to have issues with a lot of sites. 
 In general it is a little faster than most browsers but it has its 
own collection of problems.  It's amazing to me how problematic the 
web is.
