Hi all, I'm running: 'http://localhost/html/inputForm.html' which takes a first name and last name, and submits them to 'http://localhost/cgi-bin/query_string.cgi I get a the following error: -----------------------------snip-1--------------------------- Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

And, if I put both pages in the 'cgi-bin' directory, the ".html" page throws the following browser error; -----------------------------snip-2--------------------------- Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Apache/2.0.52 (Win32) PHP/4.3.10 mod_perl/1.99_18 Perl/v5.8.6 Server at localhost Port 80 -----------------------------snip-2--------------------------- Following is the code to the CGI script: #!/wwww/perl/bin/perl.exe -wT # input will be coming from "inputForm.html" use strict; use CGI qw(cgi); use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); print "content-type: text/html\n\n"; my %form; my @pairs = split(/&/, $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'}); foreach (@pairs) { my ($name, $value) = split(/=/, $_); $value =~ tr/+/ /; $value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])/pack("C", hex($1))/eg; $form{$name} = $value; } print <<HTML; <html> <head><title> Output Form </title></head> <body> <center><h3> Form Output </h3></center><p></p> HTML foreach (keys %form) { print "$_ = %form{$_}<br>"; } print <<HTML; </body> </html> HTML Does anyone have any advice as to how to get this script to accept values from a ".html" page. It's probably something I'm unaware of. I'm just starting to get into CGI scripts. I've since found a script that delivers what I want: -----------------------------snip-3--------------------------- #!/www/perl/bin/perl.exe -wT use strict; use CGI qw(:standard); use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); my $first_name = param('fname'); my $last_name = param('lname'); print header, start_html('Form Output'), h3({-align=>'center'}, 'Form Output'), p; print $_ .
