    Hi there

    Is there a snippet for Modx EVO 1.0.14 or an add on out there that I can easily integrate into my web hosting site.


    I have a script (non modx) that uses cgi to run the form and display the results, but cant get my head round how to get the results to show within my page.

    the check page looks like this

    http://www.foxcreativedesign.co.uk/web-hosting/register-your-domain-name-here.html

    and the results page

    http://www.foxcreativedesign.co.uk/web-hosting/domain-search-results.html

    To test it will work Ive made this page,
    http://www.foxcreativedesign.co.uk/web-hosting/register-your-domain-name-here1.html

    which calls the cgi directly, I just need to get the resulst to display in a web page.

    Tried iframes and that doesnt work

    I dont really want to insert "print" before everyline in cgi in case my menu changes etc.

    here is the whois.cgi script

    Im more than happy to buy a couple of virtual coffees (via paypal) to the person who can sort this for me.
    thanks in advance smiley

        I dont know anything about cgi scripts, but after doing some reading it looks complicated to integrate cgi and php, My suggestion would be to try out some readily made php scripts like this one, has a free and pro version. I looked at the free code and it wouldn't be hard to snippetize it.

          Thanks Breezer. At least I now know it would be tricky to integrate.

          And thanks for the suggestion.
