Thank you - and yes, getting it to use an arbitrary CGI was an easy task without the handler code. My only issue was getting the darned query portion - which (*DOH!* thanks dws!! I really should sleep more *sigh* ) I was reminded from earlier.

As fas as IIS goes - yes it is easy to set up a handler in it as well (just add one in 'site properties | ISAPI Filters').

To do a simple passthrough on an Unix/Apache server I simply (as you suggested) put in a script alias for my cgi app in my appache configration file. ie

ScriptAlias /MyCGI/ "/usr/local/www/cgi-bin/sitescript"
