Passing data from a web form to a ksh cgi script...

I've set up a webpage that will be used to let users change their unix password on several servers at once. It is a form that asks the relevant data (username, current password, new password) and then passes that data to a korn shell cgi script.

At the moment I'm using GET in the form to move the data from the html page to the script. This works well, but the resulting webpage (that tells users if the change was successfull etc) shows the passwords... Not what you would want...

If I switch to POST that propblem would be solved...but I can't seem to get the form data into the script....any ideas on how to do this?

thanx
