1. Euphoria CGI forms
When using euphoria for cgi, is it not possible to pass a hidden value, from
a variable...like this..
integer theval
theval=8
<insert all the other form code that goes before this>
puts(1,"<input type\"hidden\" name=\"hiddenvariable\" value=theval>")
Anytime I've tried to do that, the variable is always blank when I retrieve
it from the next page. On the other hand,
puts(1,"<input type\"hidden\" name=\"hiddenvariable\" value=\"theval\">")
works fine, except of course, that's not what I want. But, what I mean
is...if I type out an exact value, it works. But, if I try to use a
variable value, it doesn't work. Is this a limit of euphoria and cgi? Or,
am I doing/not doing something wrong? I've also tried doing
puts(1,"<inpute type\"hidden\" name=\"hiddenvariable\"
value=sprint(thevalue)>")
in case it needed a sequence, not an integer. But, that doesn't work
either.
Any ideas? suggestions?

Try .....value="&sprint(thevalue)&">"

I haven't tried that, yet, to see if it works. But, just out of
curiosity...can you tell me the 'why"..or the logic of doing that?

Well, if the value filed contains caracters that can be taken as enders then
they'll be cutted, that's why when using spaces or non-letters/numbers on the
fields it's recommended to put "" between them.

You are asking it to print literal text, not the result of an
expression. Try running this (as a standalone program):
include misc.e
integer theval
theval=8
puts(1,"<input type\"hidden\" name=\"hiddenvariable\"
value=theval>\n\n")
puts(1,"<input type\"hidden\" name=\"hiddenvariable\"
value=sprint(theval)>\n\n")
puts(1,"<input type\"hidden\" name=\"hiddenvariable\"
value="&sprint(theval)&">\n\n")
printf(1,"The value of %s is %d\n",{"1+1",1+1})
Regards,
Pete
PS Just to muddy the waters a bit, if "theval" was say a javascript or
somesuch variable, you _would_ output its alpha name from the Eu
program, but this is an Eu variable. That might be something you have
seen which threw you..

oh wait! *slaps her forehead* I know the problem...I'm only thinking of
html...that's the problem....but it needs to be outside of quotes in
EUPHORIA....not html!!! And now, I also understand exactly what you're
saying!
duh!
heh
