Hmmm....but if just storing the link in a memo field, can that actual image be displayed on the face of a form, and can they click open the memo field from the browse and get the image itself, not the link? That's for FoxPro Windows 2.6A, not VFP John

Dave, thanks for responding. The pictures are digital photos of industrial parts. I just sent a note to the client to see if a PC version of the program they are using with the camera is available (it almost certainly is.) If we can get that PC version of the camera software and install it on...

Legacy data transfer needed....Switching from FoxProMac 2.6 into ForProWin 2.6 Have a 1500 record file from FoxPro 2.6a Mac with images in a general field. When you click open the general field on the Mac, you see the image. However, opening this table in FoxProWin 2.6, even though it shows a...

Executing now, no error, (it is obviously finding the ReadUrl.prg but.... the browser window does not automatically open after post. so, i added a few "navigate to" lines to try to get it to open....and it does so, but no values in the fields. Is ReadURL.prg supposed to POST AND open the...

correction..... i went to the link you provided, made a program readurl.prg and saved it into my VFP directory.... now the program finds it.... working with it now... j.

Thanks for responding.... I tried this code exactly as suggested... * pcUrlName, * pcOptFeedback, pnOptBuffSize, pcOptOutputFile, pcOptUser, pcOptPwd, * pcOptPOSTdata Result = ReadUrl( "https://ns11.reliablehosting.com/pauldonohue/cgi-bin/don5.cgi", ; .f.,.f.,.f.,.f.,.f...

Bill...I am going to ask for a little more. I have to preface this with the fact that I am a very un-experienced VFP programmer, and I can't grasp exactly how to construct the entire process of posting according to your suggestion. For instance, I don' understand where the program would list or...

I've got to use post...the three simple fields in my example are just for testing...much more will actually be passed. I am reading and attempting to absorb the rest of your reply about POST. Thank you. John

the comment(s) should read: (hopefully defaulted from VFP):

I want to do something simple: post data from VFP to a cgi script which generates a webpage with a Form on it, and have that form filled in already. In otherwords, I want pre-populate a form on a webpage from VFP. That webpage is built on the fly by a cgi script. I am on VFP 7.0 I have...

Whoops, wrong link (and no edit or delete on this forum?) Here is the correct link: https://ns11.reliablehosting.com/pauldonohue/cgi-bin/don1.html

Solution! I jumped on the idea of perluserpengo and it worked right away. THANKS! https://ns11.reliablehosting.com/pauldonohue/cgi-bin/don2.cgi This has now opened up for me the whole approach to pre-populating forms. ::::: Opera ::::: John Donohue

wow, great responses, thanks all. I just got home and will explore these solutions late tonight and report back. John

A normal HTML page with form post to a the CGI script below, which in turn generates a page. How do I default data into the value= of the form-to-be generated? Here is the cgi (it is being posted-to by a normal html form-post sending 'amount', 'first' and 'last' NOTE: the calling of the "HOP"...

baltman, your reference is interesting and I learned a few things reading it, but am too thick to grasp how I would attack my problem using your solution. wgcs, that's a great FAQ, I'm sorry I missed it in my initial search. I was using the wrong key words, CGI, etc. Now to dig into 184-4359...
