Re: UpdHTMLVAR weirdness -- RPG400-L

My initial guess would be you've got a parameter mismatch somewhere that
is corrupting memory...

Are you making an non-prototyped calls using CALL or CALLB? Double check
the parm definitions vs. what is being passed.

Any chance that the prototype procedure implementations have changed? If
done correctly, you should have gotten a level check if the change wasn't
compatible. But if somebody made a mistake... You might try recompiling.

However, it seems strange memory being corrupted is in the middle of a
buffer...

It looks like you are using CGIDEV2, correct? I'd consider putting a watch
break on the buffer CGIWEB2 is using to hold the doc and see if you can
figure out when it's getting changed.

Also, you might want to post this on the WEB-400 list and/or the yahoo
group for that product.

I have a program that is using a .txt template to build an xml document.
It was working fine for about a month & now I am getting strange results
as you can see below, the /TotalQuantity has a 12 in it. I can not figure
out what is putting that 12 into that tag. Can anyone help with this?

xml results
<Summary>
<TotalAmount>621.560</TotalAmount>
<TotalLineItemNumber>1</TotalLineItemNumber>
<TotalQuantity> 4.000 </Tot12tity>
</Summary>

Template used to create xml doc
/$EndItems
</LineItems>
<Summary>
<TotalAmount>/%TotalAmt%/</TotalAmount>
<TotalLineItemNumber>/%NumLineItems%/</TotalLineItemNumber>
<TotalQuantity> /%TotQty%/ </TotalQuantity>
</Summary>

RPG code that writes out the summary
UpdHTMLVar('TotalAmt': %Char(TotalAmount));
UpdHTMLVar('NumLineItems': %Char(TotalItems));
UpdHTMLVar('TotQty': %Char(TotalQty));
WrtSection('EndItems');
