Well, I'm a newbie. Just got started in Perl and was stunned by its power.Sounds like you might need to associate the extension .cgi with the perl interpreter. Open an explorer window and go to Tools->Folder Options. On the dialog that pops up pick the tab labeled, File Types. More than likely, you will want to create a new association between .cgi and perl.
The thing is i'm running the scripts in WinXP. Can you tell how to use CGI scripts in XP, because if ai try to set a CGI script as ACTION in a forme it just gets read and doesn't execute.
I've heard about the bat wrapping, but i really wanted to use the scripts as they are.
Thanks.
