Subject: Re: Archive Queries - capturing the query string for the URL?
Yes I cheated twice: first as documented, then second, removing the &X=,
and &Y= (my userid@node). I use a cookie in my browser so that might
explain why it works nicely.
Archives (notebooks) by default take on the characteristic of the SEND=
parameter. If that doesn't match what you want to do, then you need to
"override" that default behaviour w/ an explicit NOTEBOOK=
subparameter. SEND= PRIVATE would default to a PRIVATE archive. Thus,
you would need to specify the proper PUBLIC subparm of NOTEBOOK= to
provide the service that you want.
