I found the PWS on my win98se, there was a link for the setup program on
the start menu, programs-accesories-internet tools. Or you can look at the
add/remove control panel, Win Setup-Internet Tools-Details to see if its
included in the installation.
Anyway i put a script in the cgi-bin, and tried to test it with an html
form, but i wasn't sure what the shebang line should be, i just put the
#!path to my activeperl
or how the ACTION= should be addressed.
anyway, the whole thing seems kind of clunky, i think i'll look into some
other way of testing my cgi perl.
(how come cgi questions always go to the perl newsletter)
