NAME

cgi-bin/suggest.pl - suggest a resource for inclusion in the database

SYNOPSIS

  cgi-bin/suggest.pl [-C charset] [-f form] [-L language]
    [-u myurl]

DESCRIPTION

suggest.pl program is a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) program run from an HTTP daemon. This is a cut down equivalent of the regular ROADS template editor intended for use by end users. It simply renders the HTML form suggest.html (by default) to the end user and returns any fields on the form whose names are prefixed by SUGGEST in an email message to the ROADS database administrator once the form is submitted.

HTML FORM ELEMENTS

It is necessary to include a field called SUGGESTurl on the form, since use of this is hard coded into the program.

OPTIONS

These options are only practically useful for debugging.
