Hi Ellen, The input is supplied however you want. HTTP::Daemon provides a way to create a simple webserver. How you want to supply functionality is up to you. Since the webserver is a Perl program, you can get the parameters and pass them to your code however is easiest.
I presented on this topic at the Houston Perl Mongers meeting a few months ago. The code is available at http://www.linuxtx.com/houstonpm/downloads/webserver-dyn.txt If you need some technical help with this, email me off list. I believe we are getting a little off the topic of SVG at this point.<grin/> G. Wade On Fri, 27 May 2005 09:47:08 -0700 Ellen Clary <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi G.
