A query string can have quotes in it, and the log file will contain the quotes with a preceding '\': "http://ry2ue4ek7d.search.serialssolutions.com/?sid=HWW:HUMAB&genre=article&pid= <an>199728800301005</an>&aulast=Callahan&aufirst=John +F.&issn=0041-462X&title=Twentieth+Century+Literature&stitle=Twentieth +Century+Lit&atitle=F.+Scott+Fitzgerald's+evolving+American+dream:+the+ \"pursuit+of+happiness\"+in+Gatsby,+Tender+is+the+night,+and+The+last +tycoon&volume=42&spage=374&epage=395&date=1996&ssn=fall" Note that "pursuit of happiness" was entered as a search term, and therefore gets escaped (\") and has the spaces replaced by '+". Is there a way for Analog to deal with the entire line, instead of stopping at the first '"' character, if I try to analyze the query parameters? r. +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | TO UNSUBSCRIBE from this list: | http://lists.meer.net/mailman/listinfo/analog-help | | Analog Documentation: http://analog.cx/docs/Readme.html | List archives: http://www.analog.cx/docs/mailing.html#listarchives | Usenet version: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.analog.general +------------------------------------------------------------------------
