cgi callout and tag ui

bturns

TS 6.5
Solaris 9

Hi, My Tag ui is using a perl callout which get's a list of elements from an xml file and creates a drop down select. I'm trying to set the drop down to select the element that was previously selected (if it was selected previously). However, I can't seem to find a variable that is being passed that contains the information for which file is selected. Does anyone know if there is such a variable in the tagging UI?

Any help on the variables passed from the Tag UI to CGI callouts is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian

Substitute your callout temporarily with the IWOV's show_env.cgi. Run and check if anything in the posted Form or Environment Variable has tagged File's vpath.
Also, quick KB search returned that How do you access file paths and form fields from a metadata capture callout CGI in TS 6.x?
