Hi,

  I Am using loadFromURL() but it show a message saying that a "file 
directory is not found"

  When I run in navigator it works fine, return webservice message 
correctly.

-> Command below
cHttp:= "http://zetaserver.cloudapp.net:8082/MessageMobile/api/User/" + 
str(xId,3)
LoadFromURL( cHttp, 80 , 1, , ,"GET")

-> Return Below

Osvaldo,

>cHttp:= "http://zetaserver.cloudapp.net:8082/MessageMobile/api/User/" +
>str(xId,3)
>LoadFromURL( cHttp, 80 , 1, , ,"GET")

Your text URL "cHttp" contains the port that you want to use: "8082", but 
in your LoadFromURL(cHttp, 80, 1, , , "GET") function call you explicitly 
specify a different port to use, "80", which supersedes the port specified 
in the URL.

So you have several options, all of which will work:

LoadFromURL(cHttp)
LoadFromURL(cHttp, 8082)
LoadFromURL(cHttp, 8082, , , , "GET")
LoadFromURL(cHttp, 8082, INTERNET_COMMUNICATION_PUBLIC, , , "GET")

Because any specified parameters in LoadFromURL() supersede any options 
specified in the text URL -- and any options specified in the text URL 
supersede the default options for omitted parameters -- it makes sense to 
only specify any parameters that differ from the default values and that 
aren't already explicitly specified in the text URL.

I also recommend to RTFM for LoadFromURL(), as it explains the various 
parameters and default values, as well as the URL format.

Hope that helps,

Andreas

Hi Andreas,

   Thanks a lot for your explanation about..

   I will test with correct parameters.

   A question: What does it mean "RTFM for LoadFromURL()" ?

   Thanks,

   Osvaldo

RTFM = 'Read The F***ing Manual'

Osvaldo,

>A question: What does it mean "RTFM for LoadFromURL()" ?

RTFM = 'Read The Fine/Fantastic/Fascinating Manual' -- or any "F*" word of 
your choosing.

>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTFM

Contrary to what this Wiki page says, "[t]he RTFM comment is usually 
expressed when the speaker is irritated by another person's question or 
lack of knowledge", I use this abbreviation just as shorthand for pointing 
the reader to a topic in the documentation that would elaborate on the 
specific problem or would give more background information, which I'm not 
able (or willing) to post myself.

If I were actually irritated by the questions to which I'm responding, I 
wouldn't bother posting an answer in the first place.

So, no, RTFM is just a friendly reminder that the Manual (just like Google) 
is your friend, and doesn't contain any swearwords, at least when I'm using 
it.

I think you are absolutely right. 99% of the time RTFM is not used in a 
derogatory manor. It may be a good idea to update the Wikipedia page.
