I just wanted a script that would automatically generate a thumbnail page from all the files in the folder. I found this:
http://www.glassmandan.com/clovenfoot/index_cr.html

I installed perl, edited the .cgi file, and the cgi page loads ok, but the thumbnails show a broken link and the link also doesn't work. The weird thing is that if I hover over the thumbnail, the link appears as a valid address in the status bar, but if I copy the link address from properties and paste it in the address bar, it is invalid.

The links have a "%2E" in place of periods etc.

Anybody who wants my ip to check it out just ask (I don't want to post it I get enough random attacks already)

It's an old script so if you know of any others in existence that would suffice I would appreciate it.

%2E and periods are equal in URLs. %2E is the URL encoded form of the period.
