Hi Micheal,

I found following 2 issues with new version ESP Basic 1.89.

1. "wget" function not fetching html string from URL ("example.com").
2. "load" function not working.

Thanks.

Just uploaded a new build fixing the problems you identified.

After some testing also noticed the following.

Also I noticed that you must add a slash at the end of the url it it is just a naked domain name. IE
print wget("example.com/") not wget("example.com")


With out the slash at the end there or a proper page name it responded with a "400 Bad request". Adding the slash returned a proper page.


Load now needs the full path to the script you wish to run.

ie. LOAD "\myscript.bas"or LOAD "\uploads\myscript.bas"

Micheal,

Version 1.90

load function working as per your below detail mentioned : load "/file.bas"

but, wget still not working ... it returning "</html>" ...

i am using following code:

[sub1]
var1 = wget("myurl.com/")
wprint var1
wait

It will return the html of a web page if that page consists of html.

Can you give me a good exmple of a url you are trying to fetch and the expected result you are looking for?
