Apache require you to also provide the content-type header. So
you'll probably have to put in a `echo "Content-Type: text/plain"'.
Otherwise you'll get an error like this.
[error] [client 127.0.0.1] Premature end of script headers: <your cgi path>
But this is *not* the best way to write cgi's because this
violates HTTP spec since echo transmits <LF> instead of <CR><LF>.
So you'd be much better off writing.
echo -en "Content-Type: text/plain\r\n"
echo -en "\r\n"
echo "$QUERY_STRING"
Anyway it's always safer and easier to use PHP to write dynamic stuff
(Perl anyone ?)
