[thelist] basedir location

[Steve Cook]

Hi J!

Using cgi.PM you can take a look at the HTTP session variable path_info

Instructions here...
http://stein.cshl.org/WWW/software/CGI/cgi_docs.html#environment

If you aren't using cgi.PM there are other ways of getting at the HTTP
session variables, but I still don't have a perl book with me so I'm a
little lost for what the exact methods are!

Hope this helps anyways!
