does not work

I only thought you could pass information using GET inside a <form> ?

the script is just a counter and the argument im trying to pass is the name of the html file calling the script.
i could make a script for each html file and call that script specifically like
<!--#exec cgi='cgi-bin/htmlfilename.pl'-->
but that is a pain in the ass and shouldnt be necessary.
id rather have one script and just pass the name of the file in as an argument but
<!--#exec cgi='cgi-bin/counter.pl?file=htmlfilename'>
does not work, it causes an error.

Try using <!--#include virtual="scriptname?argument=blah"--> instead of exec cgi.

TPA had the right idea.

Would that work with multiple inputs?
