Shlomi,

reference coding styles and idioms that seem to be agreed upo

Here is a very stupid question.
It is related to Perl so I hope I may ask.
Whenever I try to action a perl-script out of an HTML submition I only get to see

So Apache is not recognizing the .pl or .cgi extension.
Can anyone tell me what I should put in the httpd.conf-file ?
