Win95 'eh? ...been a while but here goes.....You must enable or install some form of web server. It can be PWS (way confusing and convoluted) or something much easier like Sambar server. Sambar is free and a very easy and very good learning environment. http://sambar.com if you want it. Inside of 6 months you will pony up the fee for the full version (the exhorbitant amount of $75 US, including unlimited tech support via actual sambar users mailing list if you want to subscribe, and all new releases and updates). Once you get it up and running (it will run fine using defaults after install) ...Oop...almost forgot....go to microsoft.com and find DCOM if you haven't already....you won't get far without it... Still with me? To enable REBOL or PERL or a few other things...you must put them in your path....it's in the install instructions. Done by editing Autoexec.? under win95....best way is rename existing one ie autoexecOLD.bat then edit and save as autoexec.bat so if things do not go well you can revert to old one easily... You can learn a great deal using these forums. Please try to read the readmes and instructions or manuals prior to asking for assistance. You will get a lot of good help when including an example of your efforts (even if very terrible efforts), much more so than just asking howdoi?? http://askjeeves.com can handle the howdoi's? as well or better (and always quicker) than these mailing forums. Be sure to add *.pl *.r etc to your config file if using sambar...it's very easy. BTW, I am not compensated for comments as to Sambar or REBOL (am very new to it myself). For an example of both however visit http://doh-uh.dyndns.org . Email me off-list for an explanation of how you can get a "pseudodomain" along those lines, also free of charge. Lots of luck to you...I was where you are about a year or so ago....you'll do fine. ay ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, March 15, 2000 1:19 AM Subject: [REBOL] Testing CGI Locally > Hi, > > I'm new to Rebol and to Web development, and I've been playing around with a > few CGI scripts while learning Rebol.
