So what's your error message you got ? and where you got the error? And what is the "boxes" mean ? I dont' see any boxes there. so what is your text editor for writing this script ? But the most important things are : 1. Do you have the right to run CGI at your server ? 2. Do you know if you are pointing your perl compiler at a right path( #!/usr/bin/perl) ? You can't just copy this from book. Different server may config it at different location..
