Parsing query string from cgi
Im having trouble getting the string I get from a cgi form to only be the value entered. I need to use that value as an argument but cant use it in the way it is returned. I get "bustype = restaurant" but I want just "restaurant" because i am going to be using that value as an argument in a csh file to display a table from mysql. I know it should be simple but I cant get it to work. Thanks.
