Re: FLASH: forms and cgi

[marcpidoux]

Hum,


Cgi stuffs are not always very easy....


First, if you are using a free cgi-script on another server as your page, does

it means than you don't have access to your cgi-bin folder? Because, if you do,

stop looking for free cgi-script. Get one to configurat with your own server. I

can help you for this if you want.


Well, let's say you have no access to your cgi-bin.

The tag form is not close....is it on your page?

The vars should be (I think) "post" (On (Release)bla,bla,bla,....vars=post.)


If it doens't work, try to know what type of server is your page on (Unix or

NT) and ask again with new infos.


Cheers


Marc
