Including dynamic searches	Can't Post

I tried including a dynamic search using the following:

Code

<!--#include virtual="/artman2/search.pl?action=search&page=1&perpage=10&template=searchEngine/projectList.html&categoryNums=78,79&keyword=&keywordSearchFields="-->

When the search query is used as a full URL it works fine, but obviously it needs to be included within a page. When using the include above, AM instead outputs the contents of search.pl itself (!?)

Any ideas?

Hi Harald,

Thanks for posting. Smile

It sounds like you're on a Windows server - they sometimes require a slightly different code format in order to include the output of CGI scripts. Try using this instead:

Code

<!--#exec cgi="/artman2/search.pl?action=search&page=1&perpage=10&template=searchEngine/projectList.html&categoryNums=78,79&keyword=&keywordSearchFields="-->

Let us know if you need anything else!
