;The function below decodes data read either as a query string
; or from stdin in a form posting
; As you will see: I use 3 variables with cgi-form as an
; intermediate, (as I would do in "C"). Works for me
; but this is an example a function to could use some optimization
; As I said before, I would be happy to create a series of
; before-and-after examples
decode-data: func[/local cgi-form data-string][
if data-string: read-data[
replace/all data-string "+" " "
cgi-form: parse/all data-string "&="
foreach item cgi-form[append pair-list dehex item]
pairs: (length? pair-list) / 2
]
]; end decode-data
Cheers!
