I always seem to follow the path with most resistance. :-) Luckily I control the web server setup here. While we are on the topic of CGI and Apache. Any idea how to tell Apache that a specific file is a CGI program, even though that file has no file extension like the obvious .cgi suffix? This is not to serious - I think Google accepts URLs with a '.' (dot) in the path. eg: http://www.mydoman.com/mmaths/project1.cgi/myparam More searching on Google revealed one forum post mentioning this...but the author wasn't sure if it works. I couldn't get it to work. :-( 'project1' is my CGI application. ------------ .htaccess ------------------ <Files project1> AddHandler cgi-script </Files> --------------------------------------- -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
