Hi, Shariff, you wrote (directly):

to post any questions. Luckily I cut and pasted a reply that you made to a
question of mine a few days back.
I've also posted this to the list, so other people are helped as well.

get rid of the colon, could you give me a boost in the right direction?
First, this is better:
test: make object! decode-cgi "description=newdb&value1=one&value2=two"
>> test: make object! decode-cgi "description=newdb&value1=one&value2=two"
>> probe test
make object! [
description: "newdb"
value1: "one"
value2: "two"
]
That way your Rebol is not damaged by someone writing:
>> do decode-cgi "append=yes&print=true"
== "true"
>> source append
append: == {"yes"}
Back to a fresh copy of Rebol.
>> block: make block! 0
== []
>> append block to word! test/description
== [newdb]
IMPORTANT NOTE: Better would be to leave description as a string.
>> append/only block make block! 0
== [newdb []]
>> append/only last block 'value1
== [value1]
>> append last block test/value1
== [value1 "one"]
>> append last block 'value2
== [value1 "one" value2]
>> append last block test/value2
== [value1 "one" value2 "two"]
>> block
== [newdb [value1 "one" value2 "two"]]
For real production code, put a try block around the code and test for
errols.
I hope that helps!

There can be no errols...
