AUCGI: How to get contents from input?

[topten]

I discovered aucgi - which allows to use au3 on the server side.

I wonder how can I pass the contents of html input and pass it to aucgi?

<form>
  First name:<br>
  <input type="text" name="firstname">
  <br>
  Last name:<br>
  <input type="text" name="lastname">
</form>

 

Great thanx in advance!

Isn't that done automatically?

If your server runs AuCGI then depending if the form's enctype method is "get" or "post" you would use _Get() or _Post() respectively to read passed data. Or use variables $_GET_raw and $_POST_raw to read raw data.

I am using AuCGI on LightTPD.

Say on one page I create a form something like

<form action="action_page.au3"> ; What should I use here? action_page.au3?
  First name:<br>
  <input type="text" name="firstname" value="Mickey">
  <br>
  Last name:<br>
  <input type="text" name="lastname" value="Mouse">
  <br><br>
  <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

Should I use action_page.au3 for the form?

How can au3 page then get the "firstname" the "lastname"  _Get() or _Post()  ?

Great thanx in advance!

Default method for forms is "GET", so for form written like that you would use _Get("firstname") and _Get("lastname") in action_page.au3.

Did you try it?
