this is a basic sample form/ script (i do not even use the input- just to
keep it simple & to exclude as many variable as possible):
<form action="plain.acgi" method=post>
<input type="text" name="name1" value="" maxlength=40> simple text via .cgi
</form>
(the file "plain.cgi" is in the same folder than macHTTP and the forms html
document)
