I suspect that Domino has simply not set the cgi-bin directory in
!WebJames.attributes to
[/cgi-bin/]
is-cgi
cgi-api=redirect
If you don't do this then yes the perl script will execute in a temporary
window although not a task window. If you set it as above the script will
be passed to !Fresco if it prints an html file i.e. with the proper header
print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";
I do not know if the webjames-style is supposed to run with perl. I
suppose that it is using dynamic areas which I do not have on my A540
running RISC OS 3.1. Has anybody any idea if that is right?
