You need to do what your web server does. Namely, in the above example, it sets PATH_INFO='/somelist' in the environment it passes to the CGI. In general, an HTTP GET for a URL like <http://example.com/mailman/wrapper/more/stuff?query> will result in the web server setting PATH_INFO='/more/stuff' QUERY_STRING='query' (and a bunch of other stuff, most of which we don't look at) in the environment it passes to the wrapper. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
