Subject: Fwd: Re: [cgmo-webcgm] Example use of DATA with no PARAM
Hi All -- I have partially recovered from my email client crash, but have lost almost two weeks worth of email. The last message before the gap is attached below -- a request that implementors (Forrest, Ulrich, Benoit) try Don's test of access to the metafile at on-load of the HTML body. For those of you who don't have it handy, I am attaching Don's CGM and HTML files again. Please give it a try and report back. Thanks, -Lofton. >Date: Wed, 28 Jul 2010 16:02:08 -0600 >To: CGM Open WebCGM TC <cgmo-webcgm@lists.oasis-open.org> >From: Lofton Henderson <lofton@rockynet.com> >Subject: Re: [cgmo-webcgm] Example use of DATA with no PARAM > >Implementors (esp.
