RE: {bb} include an ACK in email notfication ?

["Kelley, Scott" <Scott.Kelley@disney.com>]

OK, so I now have BB notification going out with a link that
automatically populates the "Security Code" field on the ack page.

I had to -

 o Make a one line change to bb/src/bbpage.c
 o Do a make;../runbb.sh stop;make install;../runbb.sh start
 o Make a one line change to bb/www/help/bb-ack.html
 o Add some javascript I stole from
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum91/3806.htm to the bottom of
bb/www/help/bb-ack.html

The change to bbpage.c is to make sure the message goes out with the
link to the ack page.  The security code is in a query string argument.
The change to bb-ack.html is to support the use of javascript to parse
the query string and populate the form field.

I was think about trying to get this into deadcat, but I don't see
anyway to package any better than this message.

Below is the exact changes to the two files.


$ diff bbpage.c.DIST bbpage.c
3118c3118

sprintf(htmllink,"\n\nPlease see:
%s%s/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOSTSVC=%s",bbwebhost,cgibinurl,hostsvc);

ACK see:

val);

Sounds right.

>How would I remake bb after making a change ? 

Just run "make; make install". You'll need to stop BB while
doing the "make install".

>Do I need to worry about bbgen and larrd ? 

No.
