Try putting the cgi in the same directory as the html file and turning on execCGI in that directory? That's the easy answer. I suppose there's something harder involving mod_rewrite.

But since you're parsing the html anyway, you could rewrite them on the fly, too.

Your call.


I wrote a CGI that opens an html file, reads it and sends
it out (with some modification).  Now these files contain
relative links of the form:
  <a href="someFile.html">something</a>
Now when the client clicks on "something", only the relative
paths appear to the CGI, and I cannot open the file.

What should I do?
1. I could carry the last path in a cookie and construct
  the full path.  But this would only work for nodes
  that accept cookies.

2. I could change all the paths to absolute.  Much much
  work.

Any better suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
Mike.
