Hiiee!
How do you post seperate questions in this forum?
Any how, here's my question...
I’m a VERY new beginner.
I have Perl and Apache on my computer.
I want to start testing CGI scripts for my website, but I don’t know where to go from here.
In order to get Apache to run a CGI script I was told to add ExecCGI to the “Options” line in the httpd.conf file.
I added it, then I made a script called, simple.cgi. I tested the script in IE at the http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/simple.cgi address, but I got the “Connection Refused” window.
Does anyone know what I’m doing wrong?
Thanks for your time,
Jenny

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
