Subject: Re: CGI Redirect
Hey-
If you want to do a redirect, can you just use a metatag? Not sure that a
CGI is what you're looking for with that respect, but you can write a cgi
to do the same thing. If you were using PERL you might do the following:
#!/bin/perl
print ("Content-type: text/html\n\n");
print "<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"Refresh\"
CONTENT=\"0;URL=http://www.hotbot.com\">\n";
Alternatively in C
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf ("Content-type: text/html\n\n");
printf("<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"Refresh\"
CONTENT=\"0;URL=http://www.hotbot.com\">\n");
return (0);
}
But I would probably just use a refresh tag:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0;URL=http://www.hotbot.com">
You could conceivably redirect to the smil file or ram file or whatever
by replacing the URL attribute with its location and it should be hidden.
In the case of writing it with CGI, you have to setup your server to run
CGI and that would meen installing Win32 PERL in the case of PERL or just
making sure you're CGI enabled in the case of C.
Laters,
Matt Behrens
