I tried

<p>This page was served on <<=datetime()>>

in the merge file and it did not work.

Also, there were no samples of HTML with imbedded FoxPro code in the Contact Mine samples. Can you direct me to a sample that I can download?

thx..........Gary

PS I really like FoxWeb but I can't buy it until I get in running properly.

The problem is your delimiters. The default delimiters for MergeTxt are << and >>, not <% and %>. In FoxWeb 2, you can change this, but then again, you don't need to be using the MergeTxt function in FoxWeb 2.

FoxWeb Support,

I found one problem:

html_out = MergeTxt(ReadFile('main_menu.frx'))

should be

html_out = MergeTxt(ReadFile('main_menu.mrg'))

but my browser output still doesn't recognize the FoxPro code inside the <% blah blah %>. It appears in the browser as:

Time Card Menu

Employee: Gary Wood

Company: General Motors of Canada

This page was served on <%=DATETIME()%>.

thanks.............Gary

When I do a Rebuild Project with Recompile all files on I get the following error message:

Program c:\program files\foxweb\programs\epay\main.prg has the following errors:
    Unknown READFILE - Undefined
    Unknown MERGETXT - Undefined
    Unknown URLENCODE - Undefined

The ContactMine sample works fine.

When I run mine I get:

Error in CGI Back-End Program

There was an error during execution of the Back-End CGI program. The error is:

User program produced no output.

Here is the program:

******************************************
* MAIN.PRG 1.0 *
******************************************

#DEFINE RECORDS_PER_PAGE 10
#DEFINE CRLF CHR(13) + CHR(10)
******************************************
PROCEDURE main
STORE "1" to ee
STORE "" to eename, co_id, company

USE C:\epay\employee.dbf ORDER EE_ID

SET EXACT OFF
STORE ee TO gcSeekVal
SEEK gcSeekVal

IF FOUND( )
   STORE ALLTRIM(first_name) + " " + ALLTRIM(last_name) to eename
   STORE employee.company to gcSeekVal
   USE C:\epay\company.dbf ORDER company_id
   SEEK gcSeekVal
   IF FOUND( )
     STORE ALLTRIM(company.name) to company
   ENDIF
ENDIF

html_out = MergeTxt(ReadFile('main_menu.frx'))
RETURN

The merge file is:

Content-type: text/html

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Gary's Timecard Main Menu</TITLE>
<LINK REL=stylesheet HREF="style.css" TYPE="text/css">
</HEAD>
<body bgcolor="#cccccc">
<h1>Time Card Menu</h1>

<p>Employee: <<eename>><br>
<p>Company: <<Company>>
<p>This page was served on <%=DATETIME()%>.

Is this a programming problem or a setup problem??
