this is the script name i was told to use:
#!/bin/sh
export SCRIPT_NAME=/results.php
exec "$0".real ${@+"$@"}
name this script htsearch, change htsearch to htsearch.real, and declare
SCRIPT_NAME to be the php results script. call it from within php as follows:
readfile ("http://your.server.here/cgi-bin/htsearch?$QUERY_STRING");
where QUERY_STRING is the same that would have been passed to htsearch.
