The results in the case blocked cookies is short and to the point. perhaps the standard header and footer should be added to the page, but the message itself is clear, no confusion possible.
The links to IPv6 RIS DB queries from RISwhois work like a charm,
Good to hear that :-)
even when cookies were still blocked :-)
Hm, I'm using another module WWW::Mechanize to run risearch for riswhois. It looks it's doing something strange.
As for the referencing URL, that's still a bit problematic.
The risearch-result page includes the line "Copy the link ..." and when you point the mouse to it, you see first part of the URL in the bottom of netscape's window, but when you click on it, the query gets executed and you again get a risearch-result page.
Persistent users can find the URL by checking the source of the page (so a big improvement already!), but perhaps it's a bit more user friendly if the "copy the link" part would take you to a page which lists the /risearch.do URL instead of executing it?
With Firefox it looks ok, gives all the URL at the bottom. I thought it would be more convenient for user just click left mouse button, and copy the link if they like to get the URL.
P.S. Don't forget to announce the new CGIs when you're finished; Some folk out there will be happy to see IPv6 queries to the RIS DB are now possible!
Sure, first like to finalize the things you asked. Probably, next week I will send it out. Arife
