Sorry folks, this was apparently a "picnic" error. (problem in chair, not in computer)
I has assumed that leaving out a name on the cont value would mean that it went in the standard http column so I was sat on that page expecting it to go red. It was only when I went up a level that I realised it had created a new column called content1 which was red.

From: xymon-bounces at xymon.com [mailto:xymon-bounces at xymon.com] On Behalf Of Neil Simmonds Sent: 17 January 2012 16:01 To: xymon at xymon.com Subject: [Xymon] http content tests
I'm trying to do a content test on a webpage. Looking at www.xymon.com <http://www.xymon.com/> I find the following in the hosts.cfg,
cont=webmail;https://webmail.hswn.dk/squirrelmail/src/login.php;HSWN
however I have the following in my hosts.cfg
cont;http://ukxxxxxx01/xx/test.jsp?number=22;23
As far as I can see this should return red as the content does not contain 23 but it stays green.
The page source that comes back from this jsp is just 22 (or whatever number you put in the test.
Can anyone help me resolve this?
Thanks,
