Running Scripts

[texaschick]

I am trying to run a FM script via the web. Most of the scripts that I am running work fine. But I am have a problem with one of them. This particular script pauses and askes the user to continue. When I run the script on the web, the browser hangs up until you go into filemaker and press continue. If I take out the pause, the script does not work. Does anyone know how to get the continue to work on the web? Or does anyone have another suggestions (not running the script is not an option)?

You cannot interact with a script via the web (only call it to run). You can, however specify if it is to run before the find or sort - the default is after.

It is curious that simply removing a pause will cause the script to fail.Does it fail in strictly the FMP environment too?

Can you post the script?

Thank you for responding. I think it works now. I changed it to -edit instead of -find. I also removed the pause, funny it failed with the pause in the filemaker environment but works with out it thru the web.

You will hit rocks one day with scripts on web. Scripts in FM and web are not best friends.
