Hi.

I have page called upload.mas. There I have
HTML-from where user can upload image.

form action is upload.cgi, which takes care of the upload.

When upload.cgi has uploaded image, it goes back to the page, where user uploaded the image, using the refresh function:
Code: 
<html>
<head><meta 
http-equiv="REFRESH" content="3;url=http://www.upload.mas">
</head>
<body>
<p>Thanks for the upload. 
</body>
</html>

How can I send variable information from the upload.cgi page to the page ?

I would like to send image-name information to the page where user uploaded the image.

Is it possible, and how ?

Don't use the meta tag to refresh to the page, write the page dynamically with your script instead, then you can include anything you want.

You can append parameters to the URL you're redirecting to:
Code: 
<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="3;url=http://www.upload.mas?nam1=value1;name2=value2">

Unless the .mas page has a way of parsing the query string that will not help. On the other hand, if it does, then that is the way to go.
