Use the same variable names as work in HTML.
If realname works in HTML, then use it as the variable in your Text
Field.
Then use a Get URL to send the data attched in its header.
The variables (including ones set in text fields) that will be sent are
on the timeline that the command is sent from.
Get URL ("/cgi-bin/millers3/formmail.pl", vars=POST)
The CGI file (formmail.pl) will read the variables that it is set up to
recognize.
