Shockwave download limit from a php file ?

Question

i have wierd problem
i work with getnettext("
http://www.pbs.org/pov/borders/2004/sas21/flowers.php?")
i can receive the information, about 100k of text, in the
director environment
but when i call from shockwave in a browser it'll not get the
information...
this project
http://www.pbs.org/pov/borders/2004/sas21/garden.html
worked fine untill about half a year...
it is a database people can distribute to...
is there a limit on how much shockwave can receive from a php
file ?
please help!
i am sitting here since 3 day not finding the problem...
put attached code in a framescript, and try in a shockwave..
thank you

Answer 1

Your behavior works for me in Director. except that...
alert tsrt.char.count
... causes a script error since tsrt.char.count is not a
string. The script error informs me that 97229 characters have been
downloaded. Here's my rewrite of your behavior, which might give
you more information as to what may be going wrong at your end:
property pID
on beginsprite me
phpRoot = "
http://www.pbs.org/pov/borders/2004/sas21/flowers.php?"
pID = getNetText(phproot)
end
on exitFrame me
if not pID then
-- The net operation has been completed
else if netDone(pID) then
vStatus = netError(pID)
if vStatus = "OK" then
tsrt = netTextResult(pID)
alert tsrt
alert string(tsrt.char.count)
else
-- Something went wrong
alert "Error: "&vStatus
end if
-- Stop polling for the end of the net operation
pID = 0
end if
go the frame
end
