[solved] Is &QUERY_STRING always passed or set in site.wfs?
The docs are unclear on this.

http://documentation.informationbuilders.com/masterinde.../wf713sec/10sec4.htm

I am trying to stop QUERY_STRING being sent but all I have tried seems to fail.

eg

# QUERY_STRING(pass)

or

QUERY_STRING(nopass)

in site.wfs but it insists on passing it.

Anyone got any ideas?

PS I am rebooting IIS and Tomcat which seems to be a pre-requisite to getting site.wfs loaded from disk...

If you dont put

QUERY_STRING(pass)

Then you are autoprompted for the variable but it is still set. Bizarre!

Could not work out why QUERY_STRING was sent by default. On another environment it was not!


# this stops it being sent by default
  <set> QUERY_STRING(dontpass)

If you change it manually then a restart is required.

If you change it via the Administration console then it's not.
