I wouldn't know why htsearch would need many of the standard environment variables. I believe I'm doing something similar to what you are looking to do, in which case I hard code request_method to GET and use the perl wrapper to put any form variables entered ( from the standard method=POST ) into the query string. Seems you could set something up for choosing the appropriate config file that way too... i _think_.

Hi, I have tried to follow the faq 4.20, setting up perl wrappers around htsearch to call it with different config files. The approach mentioned there (setting the environment variable CONFIG_DIR) did not work, so I figured I can add the -c switch to the htsearch call. But I can't figure out how to pass all the other CGI environment variables from my perl script to the htsearch binary. Any ideas?
