Try it with telnet, and then post the results. For example, to test the url
http://webserver/cgi-bin/foo.pl?param1=value1¶m2=value2
Connect to the web server on port 80:
telnet webserver 80
The server responds with:
Connected to webserver.
Escape character is '^]'.
Type the path to the url, followed by a blank line:
GET /cgi-bin/foo.pl?param1=value1¶m2=value2 HTTP/1.0
The server responds with:
...(server generated headers)...
Content-type: text/html
<html>
....
</html>
Connection closed by foreign host.
Check the server-generated headers and verify the presence of the
Content-type: header.
