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,

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.
