thanx, Andrei
That could work. However, am I not limited to a certain size GET string? Or
are GET strings of unlimited size when issued internally by a SubRequest and
not an actual client? One definite problem is that that cgi in question would
need to know how to handle both GET and POST requests. Some legacy cgi on our
servers may only know how to do one or the other.
any other ideas?
