ok
i'm not using eather ASP or cgi's. it's a thing called WebCatalog.
is as fast as perl and is a lot faster to write (and easer too)
BUT, what difference does it make what is the middlewafe?
the middle where does it's job. it writs the .txt file on the fly and
flash reads it FOR 30 MIN. or so... it actualy works for a while.
my problem is: why it stops? the .txt file is still beeing updated
with every search - why it doesn't get uploaded?

thanks for the replys.
