[REBOL] Re: webserver.r
From: ptretter:charter at: 15-Jul-2001 7:31
I seem to have found the issue. Cal recently sent me the latest version of
his webserv.r script. I got it to work but had to modify the following code
to match this (see comment I added below):
--------- snip ---------------
translate-request-to-resource: func [ file /local file-path ] [
if (last file) = #"/" [ append file "index.html" ]
file-path: clean-path join wwwpath to-file next file
if none? find file-path clean-path wwwpath [
file-path: clean-path join wwwpath "index.html"
]
if dir? file-path [ append file-path "index.html" ] ; Cal had
/index.html before. I removed the "/" Seems to have fixed it with my
browser IE 5.
return file-path
]
----------------------------------
The IE5 browser automatically adds the trailing slash, which appears to be
the culprit. I believe the script was fine as I don't believe the Internet
Explorer browsers always did this until more recent versions. I got this to
work for me as I only intent to run a webserv for my own purposes and own
access - so this may not be a real solution if other browsers are utilized.
Cal script if very nice. Thanks Cal.
