If the interface is as you say then that it is just like any other CGI request. You should look at CGI.pm (http://search.cpan.org/author/LDS/CGI.pm-2.87/CGI.pm) or any of the other various ways for handling GET and POST requests in CGI.
Then it is just a matter of writing a script that returns the properly formatted headers. I didn't fully understand how you were suppose to return, if you mean just a basic URL then you may have to just print a "Location: <url>\n\n" Like a normal redirect would, or you may need to provide more specifics about what format the return value should take. You might also post your question or any other questions about this subject to [EMAIL PROTECTED] as that list is specifically for CGI and the help may be more to the topic where this list is specifically about DBI, which it doesn't appear you are using directly, though questions about DBD can also be answered here. You might also post what you have in your current script as that usually gives insight into what the problems may be.
