[thelist] Posting data to an .shtml page

Hello,

I am trying to post a form to a .shtml which has the following SSI
directive:

<!-- #exec cgi="/cgi-bin/SSIscripts/search.pl" -->

My questions is do I attach the data posted to the .shtml page and add it to
the SSI directive. The real CGI request should look like the following:

<!-- #exec cgi="/cgi-bin/SSIscripts/search.pl?state=CA&search_type=full" -->

Any help will be appreciated.
