Has anyone experienced difficulties with having the URL Access Scripting
addition hanging while downloading files? I have a script that downloads a
graphic by posting data to a web form. It was working fine, but now, for now
particular reason, it doesn't download anymore. The graphic comes across and
can be opened, but URL Access Scripting just hangs at the end - it can't be
quit, and doesn't go away. I've tried getting around the glitch by putting
in a timeout, but the scripting addition still stays open and when I try to
download the next file, returns an error (because it is still trying to
download the first file).
The irritating part is that not only was this script working fine when I
first wrote it and has suddenly decided to stop, but it also runs fine on my
machine at home.
The computers at work that I've tried it on are G4's running 9.1 and an 8500
running 8.6. The computer at home is an 8500 equivalent running 9.1. I've
also reinstalled URL Access Scripting 2.3 but the problem is still there. I
have other scripts that work fine just doing a straight download via a
script. This problem seems to be particular to the computers at work that
download through posted form data. Is there some sort of TCP port issue with
a firewall that would prevent this from working?
Thanks,
Dave
