RE: CGIDEV2 question -- RPG400-L

Yes I changed it.  I can make the demos work with CGIDEV2 but this one has
me stumped.  At the least the request field should have "GO" in it but it's
blank too.  I know it's halfway working because it displays my form but
after you click the submit button it does not work.  I does put the
following on the url line:

http://..../cgi-bin/yourname.pgm?REQUEST=GO&YRNAME=Test

So I know it's posting just the RPG is not reading it.

I know it's something simple but I'm not sure what.

Ricky,

Forgive me, but I don't see where you have code to read the contents of
the 'YRNAME' variable in your RPG program?

Try changing your code to look like this:
    name = zhbgetvar('YRNAME');

Bob Cozzi already mentioned this, but maybe you didn't see his message.
