Web Form - UNIX Script

I'm trying to perform a simple "copy" command within a shell script that 
is launched from the Web. My form only contains 3 fields: doc nbr, 
source directory & destination directory that the user fills in.  When 
they submit the form, it is suppose to perform the copy command. The 
source and destination directory paths contain slashes and I'm wondering 
if this is my problem area.  When I print my values back, they show a 
"%20" where the directory slash should be.  Do I need to add something 
to my script to decode this?  My script is below:



#!/usr/bin/sh

echo 'Content type: text/html'
echo '<HTML>'
echo '<BODY>'
echo '<H1>Basic Checkin Screen</H1>'
echo '<H2>Trying to perform a basic Unix copy command from Web</H2>'
eval `awk 'BEGIN{RS="&";FS="=}
     $1~/^[a-zA-Z] [a-zA-Z0-9_]*$/ {
     printf "QS_%s=%c%s%c\n",$1,39,$2,39}'`


if [ QS_SUBMIT ]; then


  echo '<PRE>'


  if [ $QS_DOCNBR ]; then


    CHECKIN_STRING="Checking in ${QS_DOCNBR}"
  else


    CHECKIN_STRING="No checkin at this time"
  fi


  echo ${CHECKIN_STRING}



  if [ QS_SUBMIT = "Check-in" ]; then


    cp ${QS_SRCDIR}/${QS_DOCNBR} ${QS_DESDIR}/${QS_DOCNBR}
  else


    echo ${CHECKIN_STRING}


  fi


  echo '</PRE>'



else

  echo '<FORM METHOD="POST">'
  echo 'Document Number:'
  echo '<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="DOCNBR" SIZE="24">'
  echo '<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="SRCDIR" SIZE="50">'
  echo '<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="DESDIR" SIZE="50">'
  echo '<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="SUBMIT" VALUE="Check-in">'
  echo '</FORM>'




fi


echo '</BODY>'


echo '</HTML>'
