Cgi to dump xml data from form input field

Hi All,

I am trying to write a shell script which takes parse the web form find the input field and dump the data of that field into one xml file. The form looks like,

<input type="button" id="btnSave" value="Save" onclick="saveXmlData()"/>
<form name="submitForm" action="./saveData.cgi" method="get">
<input type="hidden" name="xmldata" />
</form>


At the end the cgi should return a html saying that "Data saved."

I have never written cgi. I would appreciate if you can guide me resolvethis or point me out some article, sample or other link.

Thanks,
Jdp
