Tried this, and in a matter of moments had input field/submit button on the testpage. A nice surprise, in that I really didn't think any of this was built into the weblet already :) > If you try to get real fancy, you may want to add the POST method (patch > previously posted), Yes and thanks to James for that. But I think I had better not complicate this any further, and so I'll skip that for now. (Especially since I don't know the difference between GET and POST, I don't know what I would potentially gain?) > but I think GET combined with forms will do everything > you need.

Yes, though I have had no success yet, I'm pretty confident that I will eventually understand the mechanics of these. Thanks to Greg too, for the links to Bill Weinman's site. Unfortunately the site is still somewhat out of order, and the sh-cgi-link gets me a perl-page instead :( Clearly this part is even more complicated than I'd anticipated, but since I've found some other references to sh-cgi handling, I'm pretty sure I can crack this... Thanks again for the input ;) Jon -- .signature ;) _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes? SourceForge.net is looking for download mirrors.
