Hi David et. al.!

1) When I entered incomplete information to a new IPDB entry I received
the following message:

With a link to:

   Linkname: make
        URL: http://dev.chebucto.ns.ca/cgi-ipbin/newip?IP=$cgi_IP

However this takes me to:

   Linkname: Add this data as a pending IP record
     Method: POST
    Enctype: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
     Action: http://dev.chebucto.ns.ca/cgi-ipbin/add_newip?IP=cgi_IP

Which doesn't really allow me to get to any place where I can update the
erroneous information, so I get stuck in a circular loop.

2) There seems to be a problem in the search script. When I search for the
text string "Flink" or "Pamingo" the script finds nothing, although the IP
"Flink Pamingo Bread & Becakfast" (ip-1090) is really there (when I look
at the listing of all IPs).

  Linkname: Search for the IP
     Method: POST
    Enctype: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
     Action: http://dev.chebucto.ns.ca/cgi-ipbin/ipdbedit


3) What is the field IP_Name for? Whenever I add a text entry to this and
update the entry the text string simply disappears.

4) Again, when I make changes to an existing created entry (in thjis case
to the field Liason_Phone:  (for the entry ip-1090) and select the [Update
the database record] button, the revision disappears. Something appears to
be broken here.

Hope this is helpful.

Cheers!

Chris
