OK, this cgi stuff is really starting to irk me!!! All I want is a simple cgi that logs people who access my pages. Simple, right? I must be doing something wrong! The script just rights environment variables to a log file.
I call it from the web page with <script language=”Javascript” location=”log.cgi”></script> and everything works just fine. That is if your running IE or Netscape 6. I have been informed that Netscape 4ish produces a neat little error! I now have four different browsers loaded so that I can test my code!
Hrmph. Until I can find a better way, I will just snarf the info from the server logs. I believe in a simple web page, viewable by all! No applets, no heavy graphics, just plain, simple, efficient, quick loading text!
