in reply to perl/linux passing form variables from command line

Assume that your script uses the CGI module, you can run the script in debug mode from command-line. There are many ways to do this, the following method is what I normally use:

perl cgi_script.pl var1=value1 var2=value2
Where var1 and var2 are form variables.

    thanks guys,
    that answered my question... What I meant was I do my own hosting/administration for my site and have access to the command line; unlike 95% of people with websites....
    thanks,
