ahhh yes, I can use the cgi headers to see if they are set... that 
was obvious... seems, I'm still not fully recuperated from the virus 
which I've been "nurturing" for a few days now.

I'll have a static ip by next week so I hope that solves this issue 
for me..

wrong group...sorry

I want to access a mysql db via a cgi interface directly with a rebol 
client.


I have a cgi script  that accesses the db and prints the results 
which I can read with the client but is this the best method? Is 
there a way to send the data directly to the client as rebol blocks 
or do I need to essestialy parse a cgi built web page as I am doing?

I know I can use mysql-protocol to access mysql directly but that 
is not hat I mean as sometimes that is not possible/allowed by some 
isp's.

The ISP owns the mysql db .. and opens up some tables for you to 
use.  So, no, it's not possible unless you run your own Vm like as 
on Amazon or linode or slicehost or whatever.
