  Thanks to Fred Thompson for adding getSmallMultiField().

  Thanks to Dagur Georgsson for testing and debugging the
  internationalization of getSmallField.

  Thanks to Shane Hall <shaneh@clyde.its.unimelb.edu.au> for
  making it work with Microsoft Internet Information Server 1.0.
  Shane's company is Web Down Under P/L in Australia.

  This program may be freely used and modified by anyone.  It would be
  considerate to keep at least these credits and copyright notice intact.

  This was my first attempt at writing a Delphi component back
  in June '95.  If I change it now, hundreds of web-applications
  will break.  So I'm leaving the data structures alone.

  What would I do different?  For starters, I wouldn't use pstrings
  on the published properties!

  URLs of note:

  http://super.sonic.net/ann/delphi/cgicomp/ -- home of this component
  http://www.href.com/ -- home of my company, HREF Tools Corp., with newer cgi tools
  http://website.ora.com/ -- home of WebSite 32-bit server
  http://www.borland.com/ -- you remember Borland; they made Delphi for us <g>
}

{ Technical support -- sorry, there isn't any.  This is a FREE component.

  Here are the 3 things I usually tell people to get them started:

  1. download the free demo project from http://super.sonic.net/ann/delphi/cgicomp/code.html
  2. If you're following the directions in cgihelp.hlp, make sure you also
     connect the form create method to the form's onCreate event handler.
     That's easy to overlook and of course your app won't work.
  3. To test, you need to run the .exe from a browser using an http command
     in the form: http://127.0.0.1/cgi-win/demo1.exe

     That IP references your local drive.  You can use any other IP
     or domain name.

     You will not be able to test or debug your web-application within Delphi.

     These components do not work as-is with Netscape server, at least
     not with Netscape's implementation of win-cgi as of 2/23/96.
     They only work with WebSite server from O'Reilly & Associates.
