Random possible parts to help your puzzle:1) the default folder returned by the CGI will be: the cgi-executables.. as you have seen.
2) *but* the "default folder" which apache uses to serving files is: DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents" and you don't need to declare that pathin your htmlin your cgi's you need write files out with a full path from root or a relative path like this:
3) Root relative URL will *not work* on OSX unless you do some special configurations.. (means you are using Apples Server Admin tool or you are a cmd line wizard who can
edit httpd.conf and really know what he is doing..
i.e. you cannot do:
src="/SomeNewCoolSiteArea/*.html"
You have to
3) put tHtmlCode into url ("file:../Documents/RevTips.html")
4) typically I will declare the default folder where my CGI is to be
reading and writing files from right away at the top of the cgi
set the defaultFolder to "../Documents/SomeNewCoolSiteArea/"5) Now you simple read and write files to
put someHTML into url "frames.html 6) then in your html you have <a href="SomeNewCoolSiteArea/frames.html"> hth
And place the "frame2.html" file in the html document tree, "not" the cgi-bin folder. Cheers Davesecond it does work with everything else excluding frames meaning works fine doing the tutorial from hyperlynk.
