note zakzebrowski In addition to pws and apache, another good web server (in my opinon) on windows machines is [http://www.ritlabs.com/tinyweb/index.html|tiny web] (free). In order to get the web server up and running and working with perl, unzip the exe's, make a root html directory (c:\mywebroot) and cgi-bin directory under root(C:\mywebroot\cgi-bin\), dump the .pl files in to the cgi-bin directory(C:\mywebroot\cgi-bin\hello.pl), create a index.html in the root directory (C:\mywebroot\index.html)and type at the command line tiny c:\mywebroot\ (port) and you're off and running until you restart your computer. Works on 95,98,nt. (I assume me but I haven't tried it.) <BR> Zak 61692 61692
