Description

We use HTML forms to collect data from the user, and then
submit it to the mainframe program using Screensurfer
Script.
For debugging purposes I put
<TERESULT HTML Name="ScreenText">
<PRE><font size=-1><TEAREA 1 1 24 80
READONLY></font></pre>
in several places inside the script and use
ShowAllRecordSets method to print screens on ASP pages, so
that I can see how data gets entered and submitted.
Our client has reported this problem:
They submit an application with field x set to "Y" and
expect this application to fail (according to business
rules application can be accepted only if field x value
is "N").
This form field maps to the mainframe program field
correctly (I can see that "Y" when print screens using
ShowAllRecordSets method)
Application does not fail, the result is different from
what they would get if enter exactly the same data directly
into the mainframe screens.

Which version of Screensurfer are you using? (Displayed on
Console Home Page)
Can you reproduce this with Screensurfer running in
diagnostic mode?
If you can reproduce it, can you zip-up the
\screensurfer\hostserver\surfdiag.log and
\screensurfer\hostserver\templates.log files and email them
to surfer@ie.com attached to an email with the subject
ticket #582?

We checked the files, unfortunately you sent the
"httpstop.log" file instead of the "templates.log" file, so
we can't see what was keyed...
Also, we have gone through the protocol trace (surfdiag.log)
and there are many, many screens in the recording.
Can you describe the screen that is in error (identifying
characteristics) and also which field you key the Y in to
get the error?
Also, you can try our latest version from:
ftp://www.screensurfer.com/t2_0_10O.zip
unzip to \screensurfer\bin
