in reply to Perl not working on my web page

What is the file extension of your perl script? If it is .pl try changing it to .cgi - a different server may not recognise the .pl extension as an executable file.

    good point katgirl. If you are working w/ more than one language, it might help to name them .pl.cgi so that you know the cgi script was written in perl. if windows will let you do that.
      I tried .cgi and .pl and get same windows popup asking me if I want to save the file. So I assume it is a IIS configuration issue on the server??
