cgi_parse(3)			   cgi/cgi.h			  cgi_parse(3)

NAME
       cgi_parse  - Parse incoming CGI data

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<cgi/cgi.h>

       NEOERR *cgi_parse (CGI *cgi);

ARGUMENTS
       cgi - a pointer to a CGI	pointer

DESCRIPTION
       We split	cgi_init into two sections, one	that parses	      just the
       basics,	and the	second is cgi_parse.  cgi_parse		  is responsi-
       ble for parsing the entity body of the  HTTP	       request.	  This
       payload	is  typically  only  sent (expected)	       on POST/PUT re-
       quests, but generally this is  called  on	    all	 incoming  re-
       quests.	 This  function	 walks	the list of	      registered parse
       callbacks (see cgi_register_parse_cb),		and if none  of	 those
       matches or handles the request, it

       handlers:		 POST	w/   application/x-www-form-urlencoded
		   POST	w/ application/form-data	     PUT w/  any  con-
       tent  type	     In	 general,  if there is no Content-Length, then
		 cgi_parse  ignores  the  payload   and	  doesn't   raise   an
		 error.

RETURN VALUE
       Either data populated into files	and cgi->hdf, or whatever
       other side effects of your own registered callbacks.
