User's home directory (better special subdirectory - only for those
scripts) should be registered in the config file of webserver as a
directory where cgi scripts are running.
For example if You look in the Apache config file You will find such info
along with my examples
# ScriptAlias: This controls which directories contain server scripts.
# ScriptAliases are essentially the same as Aliases, except that
# documents in the realname directory are treated as applications and
# run by the server when requested rather than as documents sent to the
client.
# The same rules about trailing "/" apply to ScriptAlias directives as
to
# Alias.
#
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/"
ScriptAlias /pasts/ "/usr/home/mysql/php/perl/"
For other webservers it should be a little different, but not much, maybe
they have some GUI interface, too.

Please respond to
ORACLE-L
To execute the cgi scripts thru web/HTML forms we had to put them in the
common cgi-bin directory. But is there a way to have these scripts in a
user's home directory and still call them thru web/HTML forms?
TIA
