Hello!
I need a little help finishing my Terms of Service page. I embarrassed to say that I haven't learned CGI or Pearl yet and I believe that's what I'll need here... (I already have the wording for the TOS).
Overall picture: I getting started as a small WISP providing high speed internet access. Before letting the users out on the internet, I need them to agree to my TOS. Most of the grunt security work is done by a gateway appliance box I'm using --all that's left to do is a little html and CGI to hide the URL (I redirect them to for access) from the TOS html code.
The gateway appliance has an option for restricting internet access. In this mode, I have a portal page entry I can use. This is the page the users will see when they make their first http request, so I can use it to do the TOS. The good news is, this page can reside on my linux hosting box out on the internet which has CGI, etc. and so I won't have to run a web server locally at each location in addition to the gateway.
If the user clicks Agree, I need to send them to a URL on the gateway which let's them sign up as a new user to gain access. I imagine this URL needs to be hidden from the TOS HTML page and so would be used by a CGI script that would do the redirection when they click "Agree". If they click "Disagree", then I'll just reload the TOS page again.
Pretty basic I guess, but like I said, I don't know CGI or PERL yet and I need to finish this project *right now*.
TIA,
Randy
