Make URL

[1/3] from: John:Harbaugh:capmetro at: 30-Oct-2003 12:10

Guys: When I use this code, everything works: data: read/lines %//_2003_08/002s1d0.txt But, when I try to pass a variable to that line, while it returns the correct URL -the code fails and reports that it was expecting the correct type URL block: data: read/lines rejoin [ %///_2003_08/ f1 "s1d0.txt" ] It there a trick to making the variable URL, or compatible with a URL block? I tried f1: make string! cgi/f1 f1: make none! cgi/f1 f1: make number! cgi/f1 John Harbaugh, Webmaster 512-369-6018

You might have to do something to make sure the file name is known to the REBOL interpreter as a file name, after the rejoining operation. I believe this is the to-file function, as follows: data: read/lines to-file rejoin [ %///_2003_08/ f1 "s1d0.txt" ] Steven White City of Bloomington 1800 W Old Shakopee Rd Bloomington MN 55431-3096 USA 952-563-4882 (voice) 952-563-4672 (fax) [steven--white--ci--bloomington--mn--us]

correct URL -the code fails and reports that it was expecting the correct type URL block:

Hmmmm, perhaps you really meant to write something like this:

>> f1: "002"

== "002"

>> rejoin [ %//_2003_08/ f1 "s1d0.txt" ]

== %//_2003_08/002s1d0.txt Note the number of "/" characters... Andrew J Martin Attendance Officer Speaking in tongues and performing miracles. Colenso High School Arnold Street, Napier.
