Have you looked at the Standard Additions scripting dictionary. Specifically Internet Suite: Commands: handle CGI request?

I have an _old_ AppleScript acgi (OS 8.x) I wrote to email a web page - which I got 80% working (no inclusion of inline images in email), which I'd be happy to send you if you think it'll help. FWIW, it relies in some unique features of SIMS so you'll not get it working but it may give you some syntax pointers. If you want it, email me off list.

 Hi folks,
 im desperate.........and this mailing list id my last hope !

Ive been spending the last 2 days searching for information on how to process formdata through an .acgi (running acgi dispatcher) on to applications. I just cant get my script to recognize any formdata !!!

I just need to do the following:
have a simple form that sends a few variables to the .acgi and then pasees them to e.g. photoshop to create a new image based on inserted parameters.


I have NO problem with controlling photoshop via AS - all that i need is information on how to properly recognize the vars send by the form in my script.

 Ive tried both:
 on «event WWWWsdoc» path_args ¬
 and
 on handle CGI request pathArgs searching for searchArgs ¬

all i try - it will just return "error getting the data" to the browser when i call the script through the form.

If anyone of you could give ma a hint or a link to a well written resource that will help understand what my fault could be, it´ll be fantastic.

 thank you so much !

 tdmf

PS: i HAVE to use "POST" -> NOT "GET" in the form.
