HI Paul

I am getting some odd behaviour with the %WB control.
it reads and displays the test web page as expected. when i press the [OK] button the program crashes. the feedback message seem to refer to the button (%bt) but it works without issue if i comment out the %wb line
it crashes on win xp & 10
Steve

SUBROUTINE WEB_READ_TEST
IMPLICIT NONE
INCLUDE 'windows.inc'
CHARACTER*256 FPATH
INTEGER LF, LENGU

FPATH = 'http://epsassets.manchester.ac.uk/medialand/' //
+ 'cpi/vol1/software/cpi_ver_num.htm'
c actual length not LEN()
LF = LENGU(FPATH)
c lf= 76

IWIN = WINIO@('%ca[Web file read test]&')
IWIN = WINIO@('%60.20wb[' // FPATH(1:LF) // ']&')
IWIN = WINIO@('%ff&')

It works OK for me although I have had to make some minor changes. For example I changed LENGU to LENG and I changed to free format for simplicity.

%wb has been available for a number of years but it is quite possible that it won't work on XP. It should work on Windows 10.

..., so your it shuld work on XP and Win 10 doesn't seem to be 100% valid.
have you tried on Win XP for example ?

HI

I initially suspected that it was related to the contents of the .HTM file but
on further investigation i found it works as expected (win XP) when it is a simple standalone code.

When exactly the same code is called from inside a complex application(s) it crashes. When it is called from a slightly less complex program it works as expected.

I guess my complex applications (stable for 20+ years) have shared a fundamental fault which is starting to reveal itself.

thanks

Steve
