hi bob, if the webserver is apache, you can simply override Apache's cgi-handler by putting a line like this line in the .htaccess file of the directory: AddHandler default-handler *.pl and then all .pl files should be viewed as plaintext in the browser. there are also perl modules which will read your perl source code, format it as syntax-colored HTML, and deliver that to the browser, but the only one i can seem to find at the moment will not work on pair cuz it requires mod_perl: http://search.cpan.org/search?mode=module&query=PrettyPerl wouldn't it be fun to modify this to work as a CGI...? -dave _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/listinfo/perl-win32-users
