Having Trouble with variables in HTTPRequest

Post by skoobed » Wed Dec 29, 2004 4:08 pm

I am having trouble getting the xml server to recognize %x% in the HTTPRequest below. If I manually type in 1 or 2 or 3 in the code where %x% is I get the corresponding page number returned but when I try to use a variable it seems unable to recognize it and just gives me page 1. Any help would be much appreciated.


let>x=1
let>pub=phaidon

repeat>x

HTTPRequest>http://xml.amazon.com/onca/xml3?PowerSe ... ,GET,,HTML

let>x=x+1
until>x,10

Nevermind. I ran the code above that I posted and it worked fine. There must be something else in the rest of my script that is conflicting with the variable.

In which case, search for other instances of the % character. You may have forgot to put % on the end of a variable, or used it in text somewhere else.
