title: How to pass value to cgi script from HREF link
body: <p>I do have script with href that calls a cgi script, and I want to pass a value to cgi script from href..first script is link.cgi and it has a line like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code> print "&lt;TD align=center&gt;&lt;FONT SIZE='4'&gt;&lt;a href='../cgi-bin/call.cgi?param=$path1'&gt;$v_rel&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;\n";
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I do have these line in call.cgi:</p>
  
  <pre><code>use CGI;
  my $cgi = CGI-&gt;new();
  my ($param) = $cgi-&gt;param('param');
  print ".....the value is $param\n";
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get error here when I click the link in which it calls call.cgi,I guess it does not pass the param to call.cgi, any good people out there can help on this..thanks in advance.</p>
