AUTH_TYPE
CONTENT_LENGTH CONTENT_TYPE GATEWAY_INTERFACE PATH_INFO PATH_TRANSLATED QUERY_STRING REMOTE_ADDR REMOTE_HOST REMOTE_IDENT REMOTE_USER REQUEST_METHOD SCRIPT_NAME SERVER_NAME SERVER_PORT SERVER_PROTOCOL SERVER_SOFTWARE Are these variables part of web server or are they defined by CGI ? I am um=nder thye impression that these varibles are defined as environment variables by the web server environment. AM I correct , or are these variables specified by the CGI only and when a CGI is used in a program , only at thah time these variables can be used in a program ? If these variables are specified by the web server, then why can they not be used in the script directly ? Why do we have to use CGI to get these values in the script ? thanks In reply to Re^2: CGI program
