Here are the files: Put the following in $server_root/cgi-bin/ft1 (and mark executable): ------------------- #!/bin/sh echo -e "Content-type: text/html;\n\n" echo "<form action=/cgi-bin/ftg><input name=i><input type=submit></form>"; ------------------- Put the following to $server_root/cgi-bin/ftg (marking executable) - it will dump what vars are passed to CGI by server (an analogue of the 2nd stage of the script): -------------------- #!/bin/sh echo -e "Content-type: text/plain;\n\n" set -------------------- Now at the 'g' prompt enter the URL: http://localhost/cgi-bin/ft1?a=v - the $HTTP_REFERER won't be among the env vars passed to /cgi-bin/ftg. Now at the 'g' prompt enter the URL (i.e. the same URL, but without any parameters): http://localhost/cgi-bin/ft1 - the $HTTP_REFERER *WILL BE* be among the env vars passed to /cgi-bin/ftg. You can create the trace yourself if needed. Best regards, -Vlad ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
