As doing IO in the CGI Monad is a current need, it's an instance of MonadIO and as such provide liftIO, so your arcaneMagic is called liftIO : cgiMain :: CGI CGIResult cgiMain = do inp <- getInput "id" gen <- liftIO $ parse inp output $ take 10 (randoms gen) parse :: Maybe String-> IO StdGen parse (Just x) = return $ read x parse Nothing = getStdGen -- Jedaï _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
