let's try this the other way then
given some 'principle html script'
http://localhost/my/dir/ThatPage.html
which when invoked calls out
http://localhost/cgi-bin/ThisCgi.cgi?<argStream>
for the get method or
http://localhost/cgi-bin/ThisCgi.cgi
for the POST method - and the data is stashed in hidden
values that will be read as 'input' on STDIN....
have you thought about using say LWP::Useragent to
call the original page? To make sure that it will
do the right thing????
When you build the libwww-perl on the unix side it provides
a set of fun little tools - one named GET and the other POST
that allow one to do simple 'GET http://www.wetware.com/drieux'
types of 'give me the raw html' from there.....
Because if the original html wrapper is SCRAGGED and not
passing along the values to the cgi - then of course it
will always blow chow....
