    That's gibberish. Files aren't relative. Actions can't put to anything.

    If you were trying to say that action uris should be relative to the document root, that's wrong too.

    Finally, ./cgi-bin/xyz.cgi is not relative to the document root, it's relative to the uri of the document in which the form resides. /cgi-bin/xyz.cgi would be relative to the document root (if cgi-bin isn't an alias).

      Hi,

      Sorry If my language is confusing. What I ment are as follows

      If he is saving file in the document root, the file path relative to document root will also be relative to URI of that file.

      In path ./cgi-bin/xyz.cgi, even if I can claim that above explanation applies there too, I accept that its a typo error. what I ment is /cgi-bin/xyz.cgi

      Cheers !
