The first thing you need is a good cgiparse()
routine that handles all the GET POST variants,
forms, multipart forms, etc. Its a pain in the
butt in 'C'. php isn't half bad, and it has all
the ugly stuff built in. You might get your
clothes a bit cleaner with the rock and stream
method, but use the washing machine. In the long
run  you'll be glad you did.
