in reply to Forms Problem

If you're talking about CGI forms and Web pages, then you have to use something like this: if ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} EQ 'GET') { @pairs = split (/&/, $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'}); } elsif ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} EQ 'POST') { read (STDIN, $buffer, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'}); @pairs = split(/&/, $buffer); } else { exit; } Just don't try using it on your AOL Web space; I don't think they let you use CGI.
