Hello clx,

Sorry I was not having intention to bump up the posts. I have first cgi in which I have prepared a form and asking users for three values which user wil enter in a text box. Then I have second cgi in which I am calling UNIX script, now I want to pass these arguments to that unix script as follows.

Code:
/bin/ksh
echo "Content-Type: text/html"
echo
echo "<HTML>"
 echo "<HEAD>"
echo "<TITLE>test status</TITLE>"
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\">"
echo "<SCRIPT TYPE=\"text/javascript\">"
 echo "<!--"
 echo "window.focus();"
 echo "//-->"
 echo "</SCRIPT>"
 echo "</HEAD>"
 echo "<BODY  TEXT vlink="black" link="blue" alink="white" >"
 echo "<CENTER><STRONG>Test status form</STRONG></CENTER>"
echo "Number of days: <input type="text" name="days"><br>"
echo "Stage: <input type="text" name="stage"><br>"
echo "Project Name: <input type="text" name="project"><br><br>"
echo "<input type="submit" value="Press button Submit generate output">"
echo "<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=output.cgi>"
echo "</FORM>"
 echo "</BODY>"
 echo "</HTML>"

2nd cgi:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
echo "Content-Type: text/html"
echo
echo "<HTML>"
 echo "<HEAD>"
echo "<TITLE>Refresh status OUTPUT</TITLE>"
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\">"
echo "<SCRIPT TYPE=\"text/javascript\">"
 echo "<!--"
echo "window.focus();"
 echo "//-->"
 echo "</SCRIPT>"
 echo "</HEAD>"
 echo "<BODY>"
ksh test2.ksh stage project days
echo "<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=htm_check_final.html>"
echo "<input type="submit" value="result">"
echo "</FORM>"
 echo "</BODY>"
 echo "</HTML>"



kindly let me know if you have any queries.




Thanks,
R. Singh
