First you need a html page with form(s), lets call it test.html and you put it into the document root of the server:
Next you need a cgi-script. I choose a shellscript using the kornshell. You save it as "test.cgi" into the cgi-bin directory of your webserver.
When you open the test.html page in your browser, you can enter a string into one of the two input fields and press the submit button adjacent to it.
When you press the "Submit via GET" button, you effectively call /cgi-bin/test.cgi?get_input=your_input_string and the browser shows this output:
When you press the "Submit via POST" button, your input is sent to the stdin of the cgi-script.
What's left for you to do is: receive the actual user's input either via GET or POST and then process the input according to your needs.
