RE: cgi
I'm sure it is executing on the server. How else would the browser know
what image to display?
puts(1,"Location: /resource.xxx\n\n")
This tells the browser to load whatever the resource is, from the server
running the cgi. This is in place of content-type. Nothing else needs
to be sent to the browser, the browser just gets whatever is at the
location and displays that. It could be an image, video, another
webpage, whatever.
I can pass an absolute to it as well:
puts(1,"Location: http://www.server.com/resource.xxx\n\n")
I would only need puts(1,"Content-Type: text/html\n\n") if I were about
to create a dynamic webpage. I would follow that with:
puts(1,"<html><head>...") etc. Then I could script the page to look
like anything. But this isn't what I'm trying to do. The cgi code is
working...I'm trying to eliminate the window popping up that would make
my program irritating to run on a regular users desktop. It needs to
run silently.
