[Juan Emilio]

Perl or PHP) and I would like to know how can I read POST/READ
varibles sent from a From, o from an URL.

Look up char * getenv(const char*) in cstdlib.

Do you know the basics of CGI? POST data is read from standard input,
while GET data is contained in a specific evironment variable. This can
be handled by standard C++, but the specifics of how to parse this data
is not topical here.

There are a number of prefab C and C++ libraries for CGI use. Or you
can roll your own.
