Sorry I didn't respond for so long, I was temporarily moved to a different project. Coming back to this question I realize this was horribly written, and it isn't even what I really need to accomplish. If you care, here is my problem:

I need to execute a cgi at a certain time everyday using a cron, but there are two major problems. This cgi is on a site that's being hosted by another company, even though we do all of the code for it. So not only is it on a different server, I also need to send variables to it. I can't seem to find anyway to do this without using html.

Thanks a lot for your help so far! I hope this one makes sense.

cachemgr.cgi

cachemgr.cgi(8) 					      System Manager's Manual						   cachemgr.cgi(8)

NAME

       cachemgr.cgi - squid HTTP proxy manager interface

SYNOPSIS

       http://your.server/cgi-bin/cachemgr.cgi

DESCRIPTION

       The  cache  manager (cachemgr.cgi) is a CGI utility for displaying statistics about the Squid HTTP proxy process as it runs. The cache man-
       ager is a convenient way to manage the cache and view statistics without logging into the server.

FILES

       ./cachemgr.conf
       /etc/squid/cachemgr.conf
	      The access configuration file defining which Squid servers may be managed via this  cachemgr.cgi	program.  Each	line  specifies  a
	      server:port followed by an optional description

	      The  server  name  may  contain  shell wildcard characters such as *, [] etc.  A quick selection dropdown menu is automatically con-
	      structed from the simple server names.

	      Specifying :port is optional. If not specified then the default proxy port is assumed. :* or :any matches any  port  on  the  target
	      server.

SECURITY

       cachemgr.cgi calls the requested server on the requested port using HTTP and returns a formatted version of the response. To avoid abuse it
       is recommended to configure your web server to restrict access to the cachemgr.cgi program.

       Configuration examples for many common web servers can be found in the Squid FAQ.
