Getting a URL is working, but not the put -- trying to write to a web file. Troubleshooting needed.

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Mark,

I wouldn't mess with file permissions if you're not absolutely sure that it is necessary.

In your first example, you use

put URL "http://www.bla.com/etc"

but in your second script you write

put file URL "http://..."

which is wrong.
