Form processing : storing strings in arrays

I am trying to write a function that "captures" the names of .jpeg files from a web form and compare these to the jpeg files that I have stored in my local directory.

Can anyone clue me in? How do I pass the inputs from a HTML form into a sorted array? I know that image filenames are to be stored as strings in char array but I am not sure how to do it.

In a html form
-----------------
Images:

Image1.jpg
Image2.jpg
Image3.jpg
.......
.......
Image?.jpg
----------------

Code:

void scanDirectory(void) / / / / / / / / / / 
{
   char *Images =  
   field->getValue("Images");
   if (Images == NULL) errorTerminate  
   ("No image field found in the form!     
      \n ");
   if(strncmp(Images,"Images", 9)==0)
	errorTerminate("Image names  
        not specified");

   else ??
}

Read from stdin. That is an aspect of CGI programming that many are surprised with at first, to read from a form or other such GET function all you have to do is read from stdin with whatever works best. I would suggest fgets.

I hear that gets works best for CGI due to its enhanced security features.

Quzah.

It depends on who you are talking about when it comes to security.

Now it all depends on whether your form is using the method GET or POST. For full details check out:
