Insert a field from another cgi
I have a whois program wich gives me the opportunity to call an "order form".
The order form is the add.cgi in Links 2.0

How could I automatically (with a link or other tag) insert the available domain name in the Title field???

I guess it should be something like that

http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/add.cgi?..........
or something like that.

Thanks a lot

Andrea

It would require adding a global tag to site_html_template.pl, and then making a new sub routine, that would call the perl script (i.e. perl /path/to/file.cgi). Not easy, but should be possible. For references on how to create a new global tag, search this forum for "SSI" .
