I installed abyss web server to c:\program files\abyss web server
My interpreter path is C:\perl\bin\perl.exe
virtual path= /cgi-bin
real path=c:\program files\abyss web server\cgi-bin
my program=c:\program files\abyss web server\htdocs\form.html
i tried many different path names in form-action e.g. action=/cgi-bin/first.pl
But any time i click the submit button , a "cannot find server " page comes up and in the browser's address field is: "c:\cgi-bin\first.pl"
I do not know where that path came from because the cgi is not there
Can you please help me resolve this challenge?
Thanks :-)

Try accessing the server using http://localhost and then the path to the script.
You seem to be viewing form.html from your folder and not the server , if thats
the case then how do you expect the CGI script to work ? hope this fixes it :)

Note: CGI scripts are always executed from the Web Server.
Client side scripting is supported using your browser , LateR!
