The scripts I tried are Websearch (Burgdorf) and Guestbook (Wright). When you do a GET with the Websearch script, you get a list of the files the program will search; when you do a GET with Guestbook, you get a page saying "You seem to have left your name blank". These are the results I get when using 3b7. So I guess I don't really _know_, but the assumption seems logical. >I'm not familiar with CGI on >Win32; if you're familiar with Unix, could you add the >equivalent of a 'printenv' to one of your scripts? Sorry, I'm not familiar with Unix. >If it's a BAT file, I think a "set" command with no arguments might do it. It's not a BAT file.
