Hey cool, I was about to come here and post that I had made this, but someone did it for me! I'm testing it as a replacement for my old Drupal/PHPBB setup. Obviously there are far fewer features (no search for example) but this is just a 0.2 product.. I've only put in 4-6 weeks of part-time work on ...

Sorry, I had left this issue for a long time while I was working on other projects, but now I'm revisiting it and I'm still having the problem. (In the meantime I did learn how to use ref to extract $POST data, heh) I've filed an issue on github about it: https://github.com/taoeffect/dragonfly-newli...

Just a quick revisit to this topic: I put the giant list in a SQLite database for the project I was working on, and it works great. SQLite is just as awesome as everyone says it is, and it works really really well with newLISP. Also, it has a feature where it can store the database in-memory if real...

I figured it out! I had to Google some PHP solutions to get the answer. Apparently, you have to specify a few things: 1. The cookie should be set originally with the right domain, so (Response:cookie "monarch" username (date-value 2011 12 12) "/" "jeremyreimer.com") ; open a cookie to say we are sig...

Hi again, I'm building a simple web application in newlisp using the Dragonfly framework, which I really like using. However I can't seem to delete cookies using the (Response:cookie) command. I can set the cookie easily using this code: (Response:cookie "monarch" username (date-value 2011 12 12) "/...

Thanks for your quick reply. I'm running under Apache on Linux. I took the size attribute out but the same issue still exists. I'll fiddle around with it a bit and try it on another Linux server I have and see if I can get it to work.

Hey, that's great! I'm a bit unsure on what to do with ($FILES), however. When I try to see what's in it with (println ($FILES)), it just comes back "()". (length ($FILES)) returns 0. There's lots of data in ($POST) but nothing in ($FILES). Am I doing something wrong? I'm using the same upload HTML ...

Okay, I am having some problems parsing the $POST data. Basically, I can extract the raw text inside the [text] brackets using this code: (setq posted (rest (rest (rest (rest (rest (rest (rest (chop (string (rest (last ($POST)))) 8))))))))) But the main problem is that as soon as it gets converted t...

Something must be draining the stdin pipe, because (read-buffer (device) buffer 1024) returns nil. :( I suppose I could parse the data in $POST, but it looks like this: (("submit" "Upload") ("uploaded_data" [text] ----binary data here--- [/text])) Which might work for saving a file if I could parse ...

Hmm.. I tried using your exact scripts, with the same permissions, and got the same problem. I'm running under Dragonfly, and both files live under the /views/ sub-directory, could this be causing the problem? EDIT: I checked by changing the code to: (set 'infile (open "./upload-file" "write")) (pri...

Hi folks, I'm trying to get the upload.cgi script to work from this thread: http://newlispfanclub.alh.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2585 I'm running Apache 2 on Ubuntu Linux. I've used the version of the script for newLISP 10 but no matter what I do I get the error "wrong upload format" when the cod...

Well, that isn't really possible in this case, as the text the user would most want to see comes from the list itself. Also, without using AJAX it isn't possible to delay loading of any part of the page until the list has loaded. Doesn't Dragonfly itself have to keep all of its context in memory whe...

Hi folks, Say I have a large list (say, 40,000 records) that takes about five seconds to load with the load("40klist.lsp") command. I'd like to keep this list in memory when the user navigates to another web page on the same site, so that each page that needs to reference the list won't have the sam...

Thanks, I upgraded to 10.2.8 and the problem went away. Sweet!

Hi all! Thanks for your incredible help so far. I've come across a puzzler: I am using xml-parse to extract data from an XML feed and into a newLISP list. This is the function I'm using: (define (parse-xml-data str) (xml-type-tags nil nil nil nil) (let ((xml (xml-parse str 15 'Yamato))) (or xml (thr...

Thanks, it was ($GET) that I was looking for. I wanted to make a multi-select box and return all elements the user checked. You were exactly right, I needed to add "[]" to each "input" element, so that I could get back the whole thing as a list. So now I have (define (multi-select-box inputlist) (le...

Hi folks, I'm trying to build a field selector in newLISP. Right now I have the code: (define (multi-select-box inputlist) (let (a "") (extend a "<form action='multi-select-submit.cgi'") (dolist (x inputlist) (extend a "<input type='checkbox' name='input' value='" (string x) "'>" (string x) "<br>"))...

This totally worked! Thanks so much for your quick reply!

Hello! I'm just getting started with newLISP, and I really like it a lot. Forgive the newbie questions. I have a test XML file called dingy.xml that looks like this: <document> <element name="First" date="4/23/2010"> <data>This is the first element</data> </element> <element name="Second" date="4/23...
