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 - ****************************** Matt Wetherill University of Salford [EMAIL PROTECTED] mobile: +44 7812 016059 office: +44 161 295 5853 ****************************** --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
