RE: bug in osOpenHttpUrl()

["John Kerwin" <johnkerwin2001@yahoo.com>]

My patch was for the <grammar> tag and not the <goto> tag.   Is there any reason to have an anchor '#' in a grammar tag?

 

As for the goto, the following worked (the gotest.jsp had two forms, one named moose and one named bad)

<goto next="gototest.jsp?dog=snoopy#moose/>  <- went to moose

and

<goto next="gototest.jsp#moose/> <- went to moose

and

<goto next="gototest.jsp?dog=snoopy/> <- went to bad (which was correct)

 

what didn't work was

<goto next="gototest.jsp?dog=snoopy&cat=kitty#moose/> 

 

any suggestions?

Yes, it's true it don't work for goto tag...
i try this
<goto next="http://bubble/vxml/test16.vxml?lang=fr"/>

i get bad fetch (it's normal) but in my appache access log, i get http://bubble/vxml/test16.vxml and not http://bubble/vxml/test16.vxml?lang=fr

i try this:

<goto next="http://bubble/vxml/test16.vxml#lang"/>
idem than http://bubble/vxml/test16.vxml?lang=fr

i try this
<goto next="http://bubble/vxml/test16.vxml?lang=fr&truc=machin"/>
i got an error: VXI abort and return NULL
--> thus there is an error with &

i try this
<goto expr="'http://bubble/vxml/test16.vxml' + '?lang=fr' + '&truc=machin'"/>

and i got the same problem ;-))

Well it was a lot easier to fix then I thought:

i'm going to try you patch ... but (see further in the code...)

There are two parts to the fix

Part I (one change).  Concatenate the "extra information" to the end of the
querystring

  queryStringStr[0] = 0;
  addQueryStringToUrl( queryStringStr, URL_EXTRA_LENGTH, queryObj );
  printf("queryStringStr = %s\n",queryStringStr);

becomes
  queryStringStr[0] = 0;
  addQueryStringToUrl( queryStringStr, URL_EXTRA_LENGTH, queryObj );
  // change 1 or 1 -  this might not be totally correct.  Does not work
  // with anchors (i.e. grammar.jsp#dog), but why would you have these?

because anchors are important in link and goto tag ...
in voiceXML 1.0, you have to use anchors to go to a specified dialog in other document (or in the same document...)

like this:
<goto expr="(type==true) ? 'utilities.vxml#confirm' : 'utilities.vxml#bye' />


Is somebody has a solution to manage ? (and & ) and also  anchors # ???

thank you

  if (VXIstrlen(comp->lpszExtraInfo)>0 && comp->lpszExtraInfo[0]=='?')
  {
        if(VXIstrlen(queryStringStr)>0) // if not first, put in '&'
          VXIstrcat(queryStringStr,"&");
        VXIstrcat(queryStringStr,comp->lpszExtraInfo+1); // skip the '?'
  }
  printf("queryStringStr = %s\n",queryStringStr);




Part II (two changes). Use the extra data (there might NOT be a queryObj
even though there is "extra information")

  if(fetchMethod && (VXIstrcmp(fetchMethod, URL_METHOD_POST) == 0)){
    strcpy(path,comp->lpszUrlPath);
    if(queryObj)
      extra_data = queryStringStr;
    cacheFlag = URL_DO_NOT_CACHE;
  }
  else{
    if(cacheFlag == URL_DO_NOT_CACHE)
      cacheFlag = URL_DO_NOT_CACHE;
    strcpy(path,comp->lpszUrlPath);
    if(queryObj && (VXIstrlen(queryStringStr) > 0)){
      strcat(path,"?");
      strcat(path, queryStringStr);
    }
  }

becomes:
  if(fetchMethod && (VXIstrcmp(fetchMethod, URL_METHOD_POST) == 0)){
    strcpy(path,comp->lpszUrlPath);
    // CHANGE 1 OF 2
    //if(queryObj)
      extra_data = queryStringStr;
    cacheFlag = URL_DO_NOT_CACHE;
  }
  else{
    if(cacheFlag == URL_DO_NOT_CACHE)
      cacheFlag = URL_DO_NOT_CACHE;
    strcpy(path,comp->lpszUrlPath);
    // CHANGE 2 OF 2
    if(/*queryObj && */(VXIstrlen(queryStringStr) > 0)){
      strcat(path,"?");
      strcat(path, queryStringStr);
    }
  }

osOpenHttpUrl() ignores the "extra" information that is in the url.

extra, as defined by microsoft's InternetCrackURL is
"extra information (for example, ?something or #something)"


so if I have a grammar

<grammar src="http://yahoo.com?spanish=t"/>  I only get <grammar
src="http://yahoo.com"/>

Anyone have a fix for this before I go and do it myself?
