Hi Folks. I have run into a wall and would appreciate any assistance.

I have the following code:
sub parse_form {
        
 read(STDIN, $buffer, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'});
 if ( $ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} ne "POST" ) {                      
  @values = split(/=/,$ENV{'QUERY_STRING'});
  @RquizID = split(/&/,$values[1]);
  $quizID = @RquizID[0];
} else {
  # Split the name-value pairs
  @pairs = split(/&/, $buffer);  
  foreach $pair (@pairs) {
   ($name, $value) = split(/=/, $pair);
   # Un-Webify plus signs and %-encoding
   $value =~ tr/+/ /;
   $value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])/pack("C", hex($1))/eg;
   $value =~ s/<!--(.|\n)*-->//g;
   $allow_html = 1;
   if ($allow_html != 1) {
    $value =~ s/<([^>]|\n)*>//g;
   }
   else {
    unless ($name eq 'new_paragraph' || $name eq 'prescription') {
#            $value =~ s/<([^>]|\n)*>//g;
    }
   }
   $FORM{$name} = $value;
  }     
 $quizID = $FORM{'quizID'};
}
}

The ENV variables are as follows:

CONTENT_LENGTH: 242

Now, I am passing in the variables via a form with hidden fields but they
are not showing up in the QUERY_STRING. Are they supposed to? and if the
STDIN reads the CONTENT_LENGTH, i can't figure out where it actually gets
data to perform the split on.

help??
Thanks in advance.

Brian
