Hi Paul, I assume by cgi you mean Perl-script where you can access any URL directly. The only thingy is that in Perl (someone please correct if I'm wrong) you can only use the "GET"-method. This means you have to format the URL as follows:
"https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&bussiness=herbs@herb- 4-life.com&....." Also watch out for special characters, like the '@', you have to replace that with %64. All spaces you have to replace with %20. I think this should work, I've used it once to use multiple search-engines with only typing the search-string once. Cheers, Frank. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Paul Bickwermert Sent: mardi 1 avril 2003 10:36 To: sambar List Member Subject: [sambar] Who can convert java to cgi? {01} Hello Everyone, I need to convert a peice of java to a cgi so I do not have to rely on javascript being enabled in people's browser. Here is a sample of the java script I am using in a cgi file. ---------------------------------------------------------- <form name="autoform" method="POST" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"; target=new> <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick"> <input type="hidden" name="business" value="herbs@herb-4-life.com"> <input type="hidden" name="undefined_quantity" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Product 1"> <input type="hidden" name="amount" value="1.00"> <input type="hidden" name="shipping" value="0.00"> <input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="return" value="http://ww3.xtra-money.com";> <input type="hidden" name="cancel_return" value="http://www.herb-4-life.com";> </form> <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- onload = function() { document.autoform.submit(); } // --> </script> -------------------------------------------------------- This auto submits my form data to paypal from a cgi with a meta refresh tag loading a temp.html file with this code in it. I want to be able to do this without the java in my cgi file. Any Ideas? Thanks for the help...
