Thank you for the reply. My program is to be able to use telnet in window without using all these UNIX commands to change directories or retrieve folders/files and etc. First, My program is to use HTML FORM to get user IP address using search user ID(query to database file).when I do search --I found user IP address and NEXT, once I found the user IP address, I need to use the user IP to open telnet using the IP address--using HTML FORM such as: Please enter user IP address: If I enter the IP address for instance 10.0.0.0, then I would be able to connect directly to the IP address 10.0.0.0. NEXT, after getting connected to the IP address 10.0.0.0, (it means connected to the telnet) thru' window. I need to be able to create another HTML form to be able to enter query instead of command. I do need to enter password or anythingelse because this program is restricted to specific personnel. What I means is the people did not know how to use all these UNIX command such as change directories and retrieve file/folders. SO I need to get something to be able to do it in HTML form, replacing the system command. such as: Please choose: option 1: write option 2: read option 3: quit these option must be in the drop down menu in the HTML form.When I choose option 1, I would be able to write into the file and soforth. I had done some part of the program but my biggest problem is to use HTML FORM to enter user IP address and get connected. I would appreciate your help. Thanks
