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 ba-
     sics,  and the second is cgi_parse.  cgi_parse	      is responsible for
     parsing the entity body of the HTTP	    request.   This  payload  is
     typically	only  sent (expected)		on POST/PUT requests, but gener-
     ally this is called on	       all  incoming  requests.   This	function
     walks  the  list  of	     registered  parse callbacks (see cgi_regis-
     ter_parse_cb),	      and if none of those matches or  handles	the  re-
     quest, it

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

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