I'm using the CGI module in the script to grab form values. Since this section of code only gets hit when certain things are passed how can I make a mock URL call to the script from DOS? I tried doing scriptname?name1=val1&name2=val2 but it complains that name1 is not recognized as an internal or external command and the same with every "name" afterwards. Is there a way to do this without having to change the script itself? The script runs fine from DOS but isn't hitting the same key areas as if from the browser. Sorry I didn't get back earlier but thanks so much for the response(s).
