What

This is a dead stupid, insecure and simple system that will update the floating text above a prim according to what is entered in the web form. Uses html forms, python and LSL.

index.html

A simple webform that sends the input to our cgi. <html4strict><html> 

  <body>

        



        <form ACTION="cgi-bin/post.cgi" METHOD="GET">
           <textarea name="Message" rows="5" cols="40" onfocus="this.value=; this.onfocus=null;">Enter your status update here.</textarea>

<INPUT TYPE="submit" title="FOO"> </form> 

  <body>

</html></html4strict>

post.cgi

A simple CGI that takes GETs and looks for two parameters:

  • URL: if found will write the value to a file
  • Message: if found will read from the file and send the contents to the url in the file

Bugs:

  • Entering no text in the form will cause the cgi to error.

<python>

  1. !/usr/bin/python

import cgi, urllib2, urllib import cgitb cgitb.enable()

file_name = "my_url"

form = cgi.FieldStorage() if (form.has_key("Message")): 

       print "Status: 302 Moved"
       print "Location: http://www.myurl.com/path/to/form"
       print

       f = open(file_name,'r')
       base_url = f.read()
       message = form["Message"].value
       args = "?Message=%s" % urllib.quote(message)
       response = urllib2.urlopen(base_url + args)

if (form.has_key("URL")): 

       print form["URL"].value
       f = open(file_name,'w')
       f.write(form["URL"].value)
       print "Content-Type: text/html"
       print
       print "OK"

</python>

status.lsl

<lsl> default { 

  state_entry()
  {
  }

} </lsl>
