For the POST problem... make sure .cgi can GET, POST, and HEAD at a minimum.
Well, Charles, guess what? That was it!!!
Per the CGI FAQ I found on:
http://community.infopop.net/6/ubb.x?a=frm&s=729094322&f=7973010413 I set my CGI permissions to GET,POST. Per your suggestion, adding HEAD solved the problem.
Thanks again!
