Sorry to say, but due to an incident on irc, i won't be putting the db access online. I deleted the entire dir off the host, a host i just paid for.
I also won't be completing http.e, or submitting any other code. This will make more than one person happy as h, i know. I refuse to be drawn into more defensive positions. You want it?, you code it, you fight for it.
I'm trying to protect the #euphoria IRC channel as it's a valuable resource for Euphoria, otherwise I wouldn't respond here. But the incident was one person on IRC stating that during a GET or POST request via HTTP, that the referrer should not default. If it is not present, then it should not be given in the HTTP headers. The official specification supports this claim. Kat's experience has been that she has been blocked downloading items that have no referer, the other claimed that some web hosts block spoofed referrer headers because it's often used in spam bots. Nothing bad was said only a disagreement as to which was right.
