    CGI with PB/DOS

    Can anyone tell me why the following code won't work?
    I've been trying for days already

    open "cons:" for output as #1
    print #1, "Content-type: text/html"
    print #1, "<HTML><BODY>"
    print #1, "Hello...<BR>"
    print #1, "</BODY></HTML>"
    close #1

    Any help would be very much appreciated!

    Kris

    Try using STDOUT instead. You are using PB 3.5, right?

      I'm using the trial version.
      I think it's 3.2.

          Kris, the rules of the BBS require that a real name is used (first+last)... handles and alias's are not permitted. Please reregister correctly before posting further questions! Thanks!

          BTW, PB3.2 does not support STDOUT but there are routines available to emulate STDOUT... however, the low purchase price of PB3.5 may not make the effort worth while when 3.5 has STDOUT built-in.

            The routines Lance referred to are in the Example directory under where you installed PB 3.2 in a file called DOSUNIT.BAS. You can $LINK in the DOSUNIT.PBU to use the routines.

                  Which books? If you mean the PB/CC printed documentation, the you can order it online, or call the PowerBASIC sales department directly. Note that the printed documentation for PB/CC contains much the same information as the PBCC.HLP file shipped with PB/CC.
