Hi all,
The problem is that IIS returns 'none instead of "" (an empty string) when
the query string is empty.
Hence the message
** Script Error: decode-cgi-query expected args argument of type:
any-string.
** Where: query: make object! decode-cgi-query
system/options/cgi/query-string
The solution without breaking the script for other servers is to test for
none and make the query-string an empty string if necessary something along
the lines of this should do it. Place this before your decode-cgi line
;--Fix for IIS & PWS
if none? system/options/cgi/query-string [system/options/cgi/query-string:
copy ""]
Cheers
Allen K

Several people have claimed the first line is not necessary and while I've
never removed it, it doesn't seem to hurt. I was getting the same messages
you were about "no header info" until I added the REBOL [...], AND the print
"Content-Type..." to the top portion of the script. I know this is get type
still, not the post method you're looking for but maybe it will help.
