Executing CGI Script from Form

[Jim Zeeb]

I see that the Form Properties have the option to send to CGI.

I want to execute a CGI in my website cgi-bin directory.
How do I specify the program to run and the parameters sent to it?

For example
http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/CGIPGM.exe/login?username=Username&[email protected] (email address is from form)

inTHANKSadvance

The parameters are the form fields, so your form will need a field for
each parameter.
In the form properties, set "Send to Other" - Custom ISAPI, NSAPI,
CGI,or ASP Script
On the Options Button, set the action to the path to your CGI
application, and the method to GET.
Click OK twice, and you're done, apart from setting the correct
permissions on the CGI-exe, and the CGI bin itself.

If you need any other parameters not provided by visible form fields,
then click the Advanced button and type in the names and values (these
will be in the HTML/Code view as hidden fields.)
