    <p>Greetings all,</p> <p>I have a python CGI script which using </p> <pre><code>print "Location: [nextfilename]" print </code></pre> <p>After "forwarding" (the reason for the quotes there is apparent in a second), I see the HTML of the page to which it has forwarded fine, but all images, etc. are not showing. The address bar still shows the cgi script as the current location, not the HTML file itself. If I go to the HTML file directly, it displays fine.</p> <p>Basically, the CGI script, which is stored in the cgi-bin, whereas the HTML files are not, is trying to render images with relational links that are broken. </p> <p>How do I <em>actually</em> forward to the next page, not just render the next page through the cgi script? </p> <p>I have gone through the script with a fine-toothed comb to make sure that i wasn't actually using a print htmlDoc command anywhere that would be interrupting and screwing this up. </p> <p>Sections of Code that are Applicable: </p> <pre><code>def get_nextStepName(): """Generates a random filename.""" nextStepBuilder = ["../htdocs/bcc/"] fileLength = random.randrange(10)+5 for i in range(fileLength): j = random.choice(varLists.ALPHANUM) nextStepBuilder.append(j) nextStepName = "" for char in nextStepBuilder: nextStepName += char nextStepName += ".html" return nextStepName def make_step2(user, password, email, headerContent, mainContent, sideSetup, sideContent, footerContent): """Creates the next step of user registration and logs valid data to a pickle for later confirmation.""" nextStepName = get_nextStepName() mainContent = "&lt;h1&gt;Step Two: The Nitty Gritty&lt;/h1&gt;" mainContent += "&lt;p&gt;User Name: %s &lt;/p&gt;" % (user) mainContent += """\ [HTML CODE GOES HERE] """ htmlDoc = htmlGlue.glue(headerContent, mainContent, sideSetup, sideContent, footerContent) f = open(nextStepName, "w") f.write(htmlDoc) f.close() nextStepName = nextStepName[9:] #truncates the ../htdocs part of the filename to fix a relational link issue when redirecting gotoNext(nextStepName) def gotoNext(filename): nextLocation = "Location:" nextLocation += filename print(nextLocation) print </code></pre> <p>Any thoughts? Thanks a ton. CGI is new to me. </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
