| 11.5 Updating a Module | |
We've edited our code file to look like this:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=vortex>
<A NAME=look EXPORT title="">
<IF $title neq "">
<HEAD><TITLE>$title</TITLE></HEAD>
</IF>
<BODY BGCOLOR=yellow>
<IF $title neq "">
<H1>$title</H1><P>
</IF>
</A>
<A NAME=/look EXPORT>
<P><HR>
<A HREF="$url/">Home page</A>
<whaturl>
<A HREF="$ret">Other stuff</A>
</BODY>
</A>
<A NAME=whaturl PRIVATE>
<rex ">>=111\.222\.333\.=" $REMOTE_ADDR>
<IF $ret neq "">
<RETURN "/some/internal/admin/page/">
<ELSE>
<RETURN "/some/public/page/">
</IF>
</A>
</SCRIPT>
|
We've added a default value to the title parameter. We also changed the background color to yellow.
We also added a second link to the bottom of the page. If the user is from our local private net, we want give them a link to our protected admin page as well. But if they're not, we want to link to a public page.
We put this logic in the whaturl function to avoid cluttering /look ; it determines which URL by checking $REMOTE_ADDR . We made it a PRIVATE function because no other script will ever need to use it, only the /look function does.
Static Revisions
Note that during our editing, the library module lookfeel in use by applications hasn't changed a whisker: we're editing the file code , and not until we're done will it become part of the library. Thus any typos won't affect live applications.

Now we check in our revised lookfeel module (next page):
