Appending URI

Does anyone know why the http::uri will not set to the uri variable?           set uri [HTTP::uri]     if { ! ([matchclass [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains $::WebFiles])  ...

The problem is the set command. The "HTTP::uri" command comes in two flavors, one to retrieve the value (if used with no parameters) and one to set the value (if a value parameter is given).

With that being said, a simpler way would be to avoid the append on the temporary variable and just change it with the HTTP::uri command.

set uri [HTTP::uri]
if { ! ([matchclass [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains $::WebFiles])
 and ! ( $uri ends_with "/" ) } {
  HTTP::uri "[HTTP::uri]/"
}
