I think that by setting 'Options None' you have effectively disallowed CGI execution in this directory. Perhaps try removing that line, or setting it to something like 'Options +ExecCGI'. > When I submit the query I still get the following error: > > You have chosen to open > > HTSEARCH > > which is a: BIN file > > from /cgi-bin > Would you like to save this file? It is the web server that decides how to handle a request (e.g. send vs. execute). So this message implies that there is still a problem with your web server configuration.
