I think there maybe a bug in VDSIPP.DLL the following script works great:

Code:
 if @not(@null(%A))
        list add,1,Starting Download .....
        list assign,list1,1
       list close,1
     rem ** Download the file **
     INTERNET HTTP,DOWNLOAD,1,@dlgtext(edit1),%A
     rem ** Get the file size of the file and then set the
     rem progress **
  %C = ""
     %S = @internet(http,content-length,1)
     repeat
       if @not(@equal(%S,0))
            dialog set,progress1,@format(@fmul(@fdiv@internet(http,transferbytes,1),%S),100),3.0)
       end
          %C = @event()
     until @not(@null(%C))
     goto %C
   end


This script does not work:
All that is changed.
Code:
 if @not(@null(%A))
        list add,1,Starting Download .....
        list assign,list1,1
       list close,1
     rem ** Download the file **
     INTERNET HTTP,DOWNLOAD,1,@dlgtext(edit1),%A
     rem ** Get the file size of the file and then set the
     rem progress **
  %C = ""
     %S = @internet(http,content-length,1)
     repeat
       if @not(@equal(%S,0))
            %%down = @internet(http,transferbytes,1)
            dialog set,progress1,@format(@fmul(@fdiv(%%down,%S),100),3.0)
       end
          %C = @event()
     until @not(@null(%C))
     goto %C
   end


I have even tried to assign the transfered bytes to an edit box and then assign it to a var. Still does not work.

Are you sure that you didn't switch the two samples? In the one that should be working you missed the
opening parentheses for @fdiv ....

Sorry my mistake, but the first example works and the second does not, is this a VDS5 or vdsipp bug?

Can you try this?

Code:
 if @not(@null(%A))
        list add,1,Starting Download .....
        list assign,list1,1
       list close,1
     rem ** Download the file **
     INTERNET HTTP,DOWNLOAD,1,@dlgtext(edit1),%A
     rem ** Get the file size of the file and then set the
     rem progress **
  %C = ""
     %S = @internet(http,content-length,1)
     repeat
       if @not(@equal(%S,0))
            %%down = @internet(http,transferbytes,1)
info "If this works, the error is in the next line: "%%Down
            dialog set,progress1,@format(@fmul(@fdiv(%%down,%S),100),3.0)
       end
          %C = @event()
     until @not(@null(%C))
     goto %C
   end


I added a little info line, so you can see if that causes the error or not. I also added the [ code ] tag to your posts, for better reading... Smile

Hello Nathan,
I've emailed you the http example modified with your code and it does work. You will need to check your custom script to see if you are setting the %%down variable anywhere else in your code.

Since you noted @internet(http,transferbytes,1) works then there is no bug within vdsipp. The assigning of the variable %%down is handled directly within VDS itself and not with vdsipp. VDSIPP only provides the value and since you said the function does work the value is in fact returning correctly.

It sounds like your variable %%down is being changed somewhere else thus causing it to 'not work'.

If if still 'does not work' it would be helpful if you post any error messages or exactly what is not working. You will also want to check to see if your script is not using the maximum number of variables allowed in VDS.

Test the http example that I emailed you and please post your results here.

Did the example I sent you work?

What error number are you getting when you try to run YOUR code?

I really would love to help but you haven't offered me an error number and/or exactly what is 'not working'.
