Hi list,

I'm just trying to get started with cgi (w2k, Apache 2.0.40), and have been
using the sample script "printenv.pl" which is included with Apache:

#!c:/Perl/bin/Perl.exe
##
##  printenv -- demo CGI program which just prints its environment
##

print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";
foreach $var (sort(keys(%ENV))) {
    $val = $ENV{$var};
    $val =~ s|\n|\\n|g;
    $val =~ s|"|\\"|g;
    print "${var}=\"${val}\"\n";
}

However, if I try to run this script from a browser using the url:

http://localhost/cgi-bin/printenv.pl

Netscape6 works fine and displays the environment in the browser window, but
IE 6 tries to download the script and it looks like the server isn't being
allowed to run it.

I appreciate that this is probably a bit off-topic, but any advice or
pointers to other resources would be greatly appreciated.

many thanks

Matt
