I would really appreciate some sort of code in C since that <br />
is what I am more familiar with :) &nbsp;and do i need to have the<br />
.txt file with all these names in the same dir? (it is) Thanks<br />
again :)<br />

Well, that _was_ C code! :)<br />
<br />
Really, are you asking for a complete working CGI code, going with the sequential method just shown?<br />
<br />
If so, it's ok: do you prefer GET or POST method?<br />
<br />
Don't worry about where to put the text file.<br />
<br />
BTW, maybe this could be worth a bit more points.<br />
<br />
Cheers, julio<br />

We have been using a REXX script for searching our email database in the past. &nbsp;However we would like to move to CGI to do this. &nbsp;The problems I am having is the type of file we &nbsp;had was 100's of names lined up like this:<br />
<br />
&gt;Jones, Scott<br />
Email: here@there.com<br />
&gt;Johnson, Becky<br />
Email: there@here.com<br />
<br />
The '&gt;' was there so the REXX script would know where to start looking for the name that was entered by the user. &nbsp;Is there anyway we could convert this to a perl or C script to do the same thing, Returning the persons name and the next line (their email)? &nbsp;Thanks in advance!<br />

Fairly Simple Search Engine question

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
