Hi Guys:
I have been testing the Viewer options, where you add to the dataset lines such
as:
<property name="viewer"
value="http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/caron/,MyViewer"/>
I am trying to make it so the link not only goes to the particular viewer but
comes up with that dataset. Our Coastwatch browser wants a lot of info, so if
I do
<property name="viewer"
value="http://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/coastwatch/CWBrowser.jsp,Coastwatch"/>
all is fine but while I get the browser I am not at the selected dataset. If I
however try what I would like to try:
<property name="viewer"
value="http://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/coastwatch/CWBrowser.jsp?edit=Grid+Data&gridDataSet=SST%2C+Blended%2C+0.1+degrees%2C+Global%2C+EXPERIMENTAL*&gridTimePeriod=1+day&gridCenteredTime=2010-11-25+12%3A00%3A00&gridCenteredTime_Year=2010&gridCenteredTime_Month=11&gridCenteredTime_Day=25&gridCenteredTime_Time=12%3A00%3A00&gridUnits=degree+C&gridPalette=Rainbow&gridPaletteScale=Linear&gridPaletteMin=8.0&gridPaletteMax=32.0&gridTimeSeriesLon=&gridTimeSeriesLat=&synchronizeTimes=true,Coastwatch"/>
it fails in the sense that an error is thrown trying to access the dataset html
page. So the question is, is there a maximum length to the URLs allowed, or am
I doing something stupid and if I could only see it all would be well (such as
you don't want space and the like encoded and I should unencode them). You can
test this yourself, as it doesn't really matter what the actual dataset is.
BTW, this is with the latest TDS 4.2 running on Ubuntu.
Thanks,
-Roy
