You are passing CGI "path" Parameter. The code you've attached does not look for it.

Please consider the new edited attachment. I am getting a null value if I print the query string.

Thanks!

Here is the DCT code

item name="Upload">
text size="29" maxlength="29">
cgi-callout url="/iw-bin/iw_cgi_wrapper.cgi/PLC_uploadGUI.ipl?path=htdocs" label="Upload" window-features="width=640,height=250,resizable=no,toolbox=no,scrollbars=yes,titlebar=no" />
/text>
/item>

Thanks!

Add the following to your logging: print $cgi->{form}{path};
Also, run "iwperldoc TeamSite::CGI_lite" from the command line and read Module documentation

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I had already tried the line,

my $path = $cgi->{'form'}{'path'};

But no value for the $path variable.

Thanks!

Your problem is "iw_cgi_wrapper.cgi". The issue seems to be well known, see for example [thread=11518]here[/thread].

What you can do is to get rid of it altogether. To do that copy/rename existing iwhome/httpd/iw-bin/show_env.cgi to
PLC_uploadGUI.cgi and call url="/iw-bin/PLC_uploadGUI.cgi?path=htdocs"
