I am sending a text file with SQL statements via Form to a CGI.
Are you trying to upload a file, or are you just sending the file contents as an ordinary parameter?
Just the file contents as a parameter
Well, the form you just posted includes a file select control, which tells me that it's actually a file upload you are trying to accomplish.
Please see in the CGI docs how you can grab the contents of an uploaded file. I recommend that you make use of the upload method.
Please show us the form.
<form action="/cgi-bin/i-nstaller.cgi" method="POST" target="_blank"> <table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" border="0" width="400" align="center"><tbody><tr> <td align="right">Create services SQL file: </td> <td valign="top"><input type="file" name="file"></td>
You should add
enctype="multipart/form-data"
to the <form> tag.
