The question is not difficult to understand.

What kind of cgi program is this? (ie. what language is it in?)

What is the "response"? Is it something the cgi program prints? Is it a cgi
variable value?
I do this all the time. There are lots of ways to do it... but if I know
what language your cgi program is in, I might be able to help out with the
code.
Basically, have your cgi program do the forwarding.
Post a link to your cgi code (not the program itself, but the code for the
program) and a link to the html form.
I would be glad to help.
