Have you considered trying mod_rewrite? Your host may have it if it runs apache. Try using something like this in your .htaccess-file: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^<some regex>$ cgi-bin/foo.pl I use this to avoid ugly urls likt this: Rewriterule ^(script)/(var1)/(var2)/(var3)$ $1.php?var1=$2&var2=$3&var3=$4 This way this... site.com/index/foo/bar/123 becomes site.com/index.php?var1=foo&var2=bar&var3=123 -- Bjørge Solli - Office:+47 55205847 http://www.nersc.no Nansen Environmental and Remote Sensing Center - Bergen, Norway Dept.: Mohn-Sverdrup Center for Global Ocean Studies and Operational Oceanography -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
