Question

Sorry, but I just can't figure out the Url's that are generated in twiki, e.g. http://www.ljames.net/cgi-bin/twiki/bin/view.cgi/Main/WebHome

The /Main/WebHome part looks like a subdirectory, which of course doesn't exist. Is this a way of passing parameters to the cgi script? It works fine, BTW!

Answer

Yes, the PATH_INFO environment variable is "Any extra path information that follows the script path in the URL, available as an environment variable for CGI scripts. If present, it is passed as an argument to the script."
