thank you..I read the section on file handles..from what I can see, it still needs a name. please show me if I've missed something

Sorry..you are right. It's http://website.com/cgi-bin/myscript.pl

The problem remains the same..using Get(http://website.com/myscript.pl) out of lwp does not get me the results I am after. No matter what page shows up in the browser, it says http://mywebsite.com/cgi-bin/myscript.pl

the field forms are consistently parsed by cgi.pm, so, I'm thinking the entire page must be being parsed to get at the form tags. Does cgi.pm have a variable that is already holding the entire page I can call,use and manipulate?

I have read through the docs you've recommended, and, again, I'm sure I'm missing something rather simple, but, I'm just not seeing it.

$query=new CGI;

@names=$query->param;

gives me an array of all the parameters

is there a function call to give me the entire page? if not, is there another way to get the entire page, when the address for every page is the same? thank you
