Hey everone,
I'm new to all this and i'm ok at cgi. But, i have a problem:
Usually i put:
#!usr/bin/perl as the first line on the script, but when i open it, it just displays what i have written in cgi.
What is the correct path, any help would be grateful :D |

Only you know what the correct path is at the moment :wink:
What OS are you running ?
Where did you install perl to ? |

I'm running Windows XP Professional
and my perl folder is:
E:\Program Files\ActivePerl-5.8.2.808-MSWin32-x86\ActivePerl
(i have 2 hard drives - that's why it's 'E:\...') |

I installed perl to C:/program files..... just to make sure i was doing everything right in the tutorial. I went through it again and again making sure i had everything perfect. I read somewhere else in this forum that instead of:
#!usr/bin/perl
put
#!C:/Program FIles/Perl
Do you think that would work? |
