Bob, Can you elaborate on what CGILIB is? I though earlier you were simply referring to a library name on your iSeries but now it sounds like you've created a tool similar to CGIDEV2. If true, can you compare and contrast the 2? Finally, any additional thoughts on my problem? My previous HTML didn't have a content type section. I don't know how that would effect the web server itself as opposed to the browser. For example does the web server itself read the HTML then do something different/special when it sees a content type directive? -----Original Message----- From: web400-bounces+mskvarenina=usa.net@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:web400-bounces+mskvarenina=usa.net@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bob Cozzi Sent: Thursday, October 21, 2004 3:50 PM To: 'Web Enabling the AS400 / iSeries' Subject: RE: [WEB400] Browser tries to download program Yes, that's why I wrote CGILIB with the xTools. It doesn't have the scaling limitations that CGIDEV2 had. As long as you stay under 16MB of HTML being sent at once, there are no practical limitations. I do limit the section names to either 32 or 64 characters (can't remember which it is at the moment), but you can have as many of them as you want. I would like to hear more about your "conditional sections" including what you use them for, and how you use them. Perhaps offline would be better if others aren't interested. As to your 1993... that's perfect. In my CGI RPG classes, I have a line that I often use: "Many long-time HTML coders, and by long-time, I mean someone who started using HTML before 1997... seem to prefer Windows Notepad as their HTML editor of choice." That line usually gets a good laugh, but as you have indicated... there's some truth to it. -Bob -----Original Message----- From: web400-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:web400-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Joe Lee Sent: Thursday, October 21, 2004 5:30 PM To: web400@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [WEB400] Browser tries to download program Well, I suppose I could be considered experienced. I think I wrote my first web page in 1993. Though I suppose it might be sort of weird that I have never put together my own personal website. I wouldn't say that there is anything "wrong" with using the noname/*top sections. The reason that I wouldn't use them is that I like the consistency of having every section named. Granted in this case there would only be one unnamed section, but I still prefer to avoid using a mix of implied and defined section names. I'm also not sure that it would work with my version of CGIDEV. We kept running into problems with not enough sections or variables being available, so I rewrote it using dynamically allocated arrays to store up to 32K sections and variables, and I don't think I made provisions for the "noname" section. I also added several capabilities that weren't available at the time, this was several years ago, such as loading from the IFS, being able to load several templates at once, and "conditional" sections which are like a select statement and allow you to output portions of your section based on the values of your variables. Joe Lee >>> cozzi@xxxxxxxxx 10/21/2004 15:06:23 >>> Notepad? Oh, you're an "experienced" HTML coder than. :) But seriously, Dreamweaver and Frontpage don't complain, but rather reposition or loose that top section. There's nothing wrong with using the 'noname' or '*TOP' section identifiers. -Bob -----Original Message----- From: web400-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:web400-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Joe Lee Sent: Thursday, October 21, 2004 4:57 PM To: web400@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [WEB400] Browser tries to download program That's interesting, I hadn't realized that, though I think that I prefer using named sections rather than an unnamed one. I've never noticed any complaints about the section name at the beginning the HTML from my editor though. Of course that is probably because I only use notepad or an enhanced version of notepad for editing HTML. :) Joe Lee >>> cozzi@xxxxxxxxx 10/21/2004 14:34:20 >>> You don't need to have a "top" section name. Most HTML editors don't like having something like /$TOP Or /$HTML On the first line of the HTML. CGIDEV2 and CGILIB support a virtual top section using 'noname' as the section name. This virtual section continues until the first real section is detected. So in CGIDEV2 you would code (in your CGI RPG program): Callp wrtSection('noname') With CGILIB, you could code: Callp cgiWrtSection('noname') or Callp cgiWrtSection('*TOP') -Bob Cozzi -----Original Message----- From: web400-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:web400-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Joe Lee Sent: Thursday, October 21, 2004 4:20 PM To: web400@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [WEB400] Browser tries to download program At the beginning of the first template section that you write to the browser you need to have at least the following. The string "Content-type: text/html" followed by 2 carriage return linefeeds (CRLF)s. You may add other header information but it must be followed by the 2 CRLFs which tell the http server that this is the end of the header section. I use a "html" section that only contains the header information, and is the same for all of my templates. A sample would be: /$html Content-type: text/html /$NextSection Joe Lee >>> mskvarenina@xxxxxxx 10/21/2004 14:03:17 >>> Hmmm.

CGIDEV2 does not output your headers for you, you must included them in one of your templates. I am guessing that the IBM Original HTTP server was being nice and must have sent a default header if a program just starts pushing stuff out without headers. Apache doesn't do that.

Get to the most current CGIDEV2 release level. There has been a bunch done to CGIDEV2 in the 3 years, and a lot of sites have converted to Apache. 2. Download the Easy/400 deliverable EASY400APC - it has the other CGIDEV2 deliverables running under Apache. http://www-922.ibm.com/easy400p/downloads.html Between those two, you should be running, or in a place where figuring the problem is easier.
