    Upload this perl script called input.cgi to your cgi-bin.
    Code:
    #!/usr/bin/perl
# The following assumes you have CGI.pm installed, comes with Perl
use CGI qw(:standard);

$strInput = param('Text1');

# Specify HTML/Text document
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

# Print HTML Header
print '<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>My Interesting Page</title></head><h1>';

# Output value obtained from browser
print "You typed \"$strInput\"";
print '</h1></html>';
    Type this URL into a browser...
    Code:
    http://www.mydomain.com/cgi-bin/input.cgi?Text1=Hello%20World!
    If you want to use a simple HTML for to provide the input instead of the URL, just create a standaard form with a text box on it called Text1. The submit button would then POST the info to the script.
