custom web server


Recommended Posts

I'm writing a simple custom http web server in java. So far, everything is working great. I want to add support for cgi scripting, and the biggest problem is how to tell php what the headers and other get/post information is. I can read post/get information within java when a request from a client is made. I can also use java to call the method php-cgi.exe to execute a php script. However, if the php script requires post information, (ie: <?php echo $_POST['username']; ?>) I do not know how to pass this information along to php. Does anyone have any idea how a normal webserver, like apache, tells php what the post information and other headers are?
