Sorry, By the time I read your message I had it working. The puts is ESSENTIAL to the cgi. All my headaches were because the webserver I chose to test my cgi out with didn't properly support a binary win32 cgi. Switching to Xitami fixed this. STDIN and STDOUT are usually the screen. But if a webserver is calling the program (rather than dos/windows) the STDIN/OUT should travel between the client browser and the webserver. Did that make any sense? I spent a week learning the basics of cgi so I could do this, and all the while I had the code right, but the webserver couldn't handle it properly :x -=Cassidy=- --- Kat <gertie at PELL.NET> wrote: > > On 12 Oct 2001, at 13:51, Ryan Johnson wrote: > > > > > I don't understand cgi, but I was thinking about > trying it one of these > > days... > > Anyway, although I don't know cgi, I do know that > from my experience, > > when you run a euphoria program (in windows), it > does not create a > > prompt window unless it needs to. > > Correct me if I'm wrong, but when you use "puts(1, > "text")", doesn't "1" > > represent the screen?
