in thread Web Scraping on CGI Scripts?

oh and I forgot to mention: you are always parsing the HTML output that the server sends to you. It doesn't matter that this is a cgi script generating the page on the server, the output is just HTML (unless it's a webservice that sends XML, JSON or the like). So there is nothing special about this case.
