These pages and links are used to develop and debug my various scripts, to test various methods of handling user actions and determine what is allowed on my website.

All the cgi scripts worked on the previous ISPs (Best-1997, Verio-2000, Quest-2002, Covad-2003) before Earthlink-2011. They did not work in the transition period from Verio to Verio/Earthlink to Quest or on Earthlink's free website-2003.
