For several months now I have been working with cgi scripts following the following code pattern. They worked just fine until now. I am running this under UNIX. Suddenly my code refuses to work. I run the program, the initial screen shows up, the submit buttons appear at the bottom of the screen as they are supposed to do,I press a submit button, it changes a bit to show that it is pressed, and then nothing happens. My debugging information shown at the bottom does not appear, the function get_and_display_data is not called. What is going on? Why would a submit fail to work?
What do the logs say? I, personally, like using simple print statements that state - print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n The $0 cgi made it to this point..." It may seem pedatic but a simplistic approach may be best at this stage in debugging.
