Need Help??

in reply to how do I make my perl script readable by a browser with windows 98?

You would also want to install the pws from the add-ons directory. Run setup and then edit the registry so that the computer runs the perl script.

Here is micro/----start cut here---/soft's say.

On the Start menu, click Run.


In the Open box, type "Regedit" without the quotation marks and click 
+OK.


Open the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC \Parameters
+\ScriptMap 


On the Edit menu, point to New, and click String Value.


Name the value .pl and press Enter.


Select .pl, and click Modify on the Edit menu.


In the Value Data box, <the full path to perl.exe>\perl.exe %s %s

NOTE: The "%s %s" is case sensitive. (e.g. "%S %S" will not work). 


Close the Registry Editor, and restart your computer.
