>as well as fully working samples to download (cgidev2)

I was skeptical about the CGIDEV2 stuff when I first started hearing about
it, but then I used it.  IT IS GREAT!  It allows you to take all of the HTML
code out of your CGI program.  The way it works is you put your HTML in the
IFS(or member) and write out predefined pieces of HTML code.  So you may
have a section of HTML code that looks like this:

<AS400>head
<HTML>
<HEAD>Hi there /%custname%/</HEAD>
<TITLE>TITle of the page</title>

<AS400>body
<body>
</body>

<AS400>end
</html>

Then in your CGI program you say . . .

chain custno CSTMST;
UpdHTMLVar('custname':CUSTNAME);
WrtSection('head');
WrtSection('body');
WrtSection('end');

. . .and the sections are written out to the browser with the customer name
replacing the /%custname%/ variable.  It has worked flawless for me so far!
