Thanks for the response. The CGI in question is the Web Publisher component of Canto Cumulus, which we have purchased to set up this web site. My real goal is to find a way to have the Web Publisher return the web page to my applescript first so that I can add my own variable data to the page instead of just going to the user directly. The only reason I thought to send the form data from the script was to give Web Publisher a source to return it to (I didn't know if that would matter).
Alternately, is there a way for my AppleScript CGI to "get" not just form data from the web page, but the WHOLE page that the user is sending the form data from? That would solve all of my problems if I can do that...
Thanks again in advance...

<<However, prudent
security programming in a CGI would have it examine whether the data is
coming from where it should (i.e. the website's form), instead of somewhere
else (i.e. your AppleScript). It's basic CGI security issues to keep someone
from really messing up your server by sending data that they shouldn't
whether their intent is malicious or not.>>
