[MacPerl] executing .bin files

[Eugene Ray]

I'm running across something strange (to me).  I have an .html file 
that is posting to parent_info.cgi but the only file in the directory 
is parent_info.cgi.bin  The script seems to execute and the browser url 
reads parent_info.cgi ??  I changed .bin to .hqx and expanded the file 
to find the script code I expected to see as if there were a straight 
parent_info.cgi file.  What is MacPerl doing here and how can I save my 
modified scripts in the .bin format to execute properly?

I have checked the pathway to the script to make sure that there isn't 
some duplicate .cgi file the .html file is posting to. Nothing.

any help/advice would be great!

Happy Turkey Day!
