Manager cannot process the request, it returns an XML response describing the error,
plus any header error codes returned by QuarkXPress Server. For example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<error>
<httpresponsecode>500</httpresponsecode>
<xpressservererrorcode>-43</xpressservererrorcode>
<xpressservererrormessage>File not found.</xpressservererrormessage>
<xpressserverextendedmessage> <![CDATA[ Error #-43 - File not found. ]]>
</xpressserverextendedmessage>
<xpressservermanagererrorcode>M8000001</xpressservermanagererrorcode>
<xpressservermanagererrormessage>The server could not locate the specified
file.
</xpressservermanagererrormessage>
</error>
HTTP GET and POST Requests
The topics below describe how you can use HTML to interact with QuarkXPress Server.
QuarkXPress Server supports both the GET and POST HTML methods. When you use
the GET method, the browser encodes form data into a URL. When you use the POST
method, form data is passed within the message body. Use the GET method only when
the form processing is idempotent. In short: GET is for retrieving data, whereas POST
can involve storing or updating data, ordering a product, or sending an e-mail.
Using HTTP GET with QXP Server
Use HTML like the following to specify a server and port where you want to send a
request. You can specify the name of the target project, the output type, and a scaling
value. You can specify the name of a box and the path of a text or picture files to
import into that box, as long as the file's path is on the server's file system. You can
also use HTML like the following to specify the page number and layout number of
the project.
The form section of the HTML should begin with the following line of code:
<form id = form1 method="GET" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded">
For both GET and POST, the browser constructs a form data set and encodes it according
to the ENCTYPE attribute (you can use multipart/form-data for POST and
application/x-www-form-urlencoded (the default) for both POST and GET).
To create fields that let the user specify the server IP address, the port, and the project
name, use HTML like the following:
<TABLE cellSpacing=1 cellPadding=1 border=1 id=TABLE1 >
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD>
<INPUT id=ServerTxt name=ServerTxt value="Server ID"
readOnly size=13 style="WIDTH: 107px; HEIGHT: 22px">
</TD>
<TD>
<INPUT id=Server maxLength=50 size=16 value=localhost name=Server
style="WIDTH: 170px; HEIGHT: 22px">
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>
<INPUT id=PortTxt name=PortTxt value="Port Number"
readOnly size=13 style="WIDTH: 107px; HEIGHT: 22px">
</TD>
<TD>
<INPUT id=Port maxLength=50 size=17 value=8080 name=Port
style="WIDTH: 170px; HEIGHT: 22px">
</TD>
</TR>
