Hi, I am using Fast-cgi ruby module and it works fine, but with "cgi" module, when I try to read data (fields) from a HTML pages the following code hangs. The code works without using "fcgi". #!/usr/local/bin/ruby require "fcgi" require "cgi" FCGI.each_request do |req| print "Content-type: text/html\n\n" print "<html><head>" print "<title> - Guest-book in Ruby - </title>" print "</head><body>" print "<h2>Guest-book</h2>" print "<hr>" cgi = CGI.new h = cgi.params ip_address = cgi.remote_addr name = h["name"].to_s # a field from a HTML page date = Time.now.asctime print "<br>" print "Name: ", name print "<br>" print "IP address: ", ip_address print "<br>" print "Visit date: ", date print "<br>" print "</body></html>" end Any hint? Thank you. Jilani
