I'm trying a CGI-SCRIPT in icon. I read some information
but I can't quite get mine to work. I think I'm close, but
missing some small detail. Here's the scenario...
I have an account cdt. Under the home directory is a www
directory where I keep my HTMLs, and that works just fine.
Also under the home directory I have a cgi-bin directory.
I keep the cgi scripts in there. I have one, it's an icon
program, httphone. It takes a parameter like:
httphone name=fred
and returns HTML results to stdout. It also logs it's activity
to a log file. It works interactively. I borrowed and modified
some other form to send the query. Netscape shows it :
http://www.mcw.edu/~cdt/cgi-bin/httphone?name=fred
and returns one of those 404 messages about URL not found.
The log file indicates no activity. Am I real close and just
need a tip? or do I need to dig into a good book or web site
for the technical details. Thanx in advance!
