Thanks so much for your help! That liburl stack seems to be doing the
trick - - - - except for one thing:
When I run the below script as a CGI, I get, maybe 90% of the html
back, but it hangs at the end for some reason. Is there a
character-limit to how much text libURL can retrieve at once?
#!revolution
on startup
start using stack "liburl_1.1.5_minus.rev"
put "Content-Type: text/plain" & cr & cr
put "parameter = " & urlDecode($QUERY_STRING)
put $QUERY_STRING into searchstring
put "http://www.imdb.com/find?s=tt&q="; & searchstring into searchURL
put URL searchURL into databack
put "databack = " & databack
-- you'll never see this, because it's never done.
put "done!"
end startup
