Small examples

It's expected that the most common use will be that the script outputs HTML; example:

#!/bin/csh
echo "Content-type: text/html"
echo ""
echo "<H1>This is a tiny forms responder</H1>"
echo "<P><B>Whatever</B> HTML you want...<BR>"
echo "usually dependent upon script arguments..."

'How-to' description

Of course, it could output a GIF image:


	#!/bin/sh
	echo "Content-type: image/gif"
	echo ""
	cat /webstuff/logo/$1.gif

Or redirect the browser to another file location:

	#!/bin/csh
	if ( "$1" == "help" ) then
		echo "Location: help.html"
	else
		echo "Location: gifs/$1.gif"
	endif
	echo ""
