Hi Allen, thanks for all these fixes! Hope I'm not driving you crazy
Here's my v1.8.8 on IIS testing feedback:
IIS compatibility in general - good!
Friendly URL fixes - links.cgi urls all work well except in two places: 1st from Admin page, the links on Category name look to have xtra ? after links.cgi and dont go anwywhere... http://dragboatalley.com/cgi-bin/links.cgi??action=admincat;id=1
2nd place is on "Add a Link" link (regular links index page -> click on cat), and it's got similar double ?'s: http://dragboatalley.com/cgi-bin/links.cgi??action=add;cat=6
Add new category, and after so many cats it's starts to double up entries. This weirdness still exists, and it seems to be that once it hits id=7 (and creates a db7.cgi file), any cats added after that dont actually trigger a new id... it's stuck on id=7 and merges data for original id=7 cat with the newly created cat.
i didnt retest the issue with delete a cat and it removes two cats... I think this actually side-effect of above issue (it's removing multiple cats that all have same id=7)
and last two bugs still apply of course: bulbs not "on" on index (but oddly enough they are when i take a printscreen screenshot), and "Added by" profile links busted.
plus I have one small question errr... suggestion :rolleyes: In sub ShowCat, how hard would it be to replace this line:
Code
@datafile = reverse @datafile;
With a @datafile = sort... and sort the list of links for category by the number of hits instead of flipping it over to list newest on top?
