Probs migrating DCTs from TS5.5.1 to TS6.1

summergs

Hello,

I am trying to migrate working 5.5.1 DCT's to TS6.1 and having probs. The first problem is that when I reference a replicant field, in 5.5.1, my .ipl called in the cgi callout references the format of Container/item name/replicantID/item. I.e. my $item_name = $cgi->{'form'}{'iw_item_name'}; In TS6 the same code yields a format of Container/item name/item, so there is no replicantID??

The other problem is that none of my ceiling statements are working (see example: ceiling-dir="/htdocs/Documents/Test_Doc")

Anyone have any ideas??

<item name="Test">
<replicant min="1" max="2000">
<item name="formAPIgeneratedID">
<description>Used to associate with Document Type Table</description>
<hidden/>
<text size="30" maxlength="30">
</text>
</item>
<item name="Link Nomenclature" rowcontinue="f">
<description>Enter text that will appear as hyperlink</description>
<text size="40" required="f" maxlength="40" />
</item>
<item name="Upload">
<description>Click on the Upload Button to upload a Statement (Note: You must also attach the Statement in order for it to appear on the Web)
</description>
<text size="29">
<cgi-callout url="/iw-bin/loadTest.ipl" label="Upload" window-features="width=320, height=200, resizable=yes, toolbar=no, scrollbars=yes"/>
</text>
</item>
<item name="Attachment">
<browser size="40" extns=".pdf,.doc,.htm" ceiling-dir="/htdocs/Documents/Test_Doc"/>
</item>
</replicant>

well, without having seen your code, I can just tell that yes, CGI callouts need to be reworked for TS 6, especially given the fact that now there is a server name in vpath, etc, etc, etc....
