  • Subject: Pass Parameters from HTML doc to RPG CGI program?
  • From: "Stone, Brad V (TC)" <bvstone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hello y'all.

I was working on some CGI programming.  I am using RPGIV for the CGI
programs and now I need to know how to do something.

Is there a way to pass a parameter through an HTML link to an RPG program?
I've seen other references that say something like...

http://link?var=value

Will pass a value to a CGI program, but it doesn't seem to work with RPG
(expecting something to be passed into the *ENTRY program).

Anyone have any ideas?  I don't really want to have to use POST to do this.
Thanks.
