How about TinyHTTP? http://www.inka.de/~bigred/sw/tinyhttpd.html if anyone wants a look-see. It's a perl script (I can hear the groaning already ;-)) that weighs in at 5.5K. The author says: "This one does not have all the features needed; in particular, it knows only about text, HTML and GIF files and the support for CGI scripts is limited (just enough t ocheck if they work and produce correct output). It supports only HTTP 1.0 and only GET and POST requests." That sounds like it would be enough to handle simple forms requests and return HTML output from a CGI script. -- Brian ("Though this be madness, yet there is method in't") Tao taob@gate.sinica.edu.tw <-- work ........ play --> taob@io.org
