Installation Problem
Hi
I am new to PERL programming and I am having some real problem to see
my out put pf perl script in browser ...
I am using windows 2000 machine
I download perl from active perl and insatlled it in d:Perl .
OS is in C drive
I created myperl.pl containing following code and save that to D:perlin
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "It works! ";
Now I go to command prompt at d:perlin
and run my program at command prompt by perl myperl.pl
..its displays the out put ...
But I want to display that out put in browser ....What I should do ...
I have IIS from where I run my ASP files ....What I did that I created
MyPerl folder in Inetpubwwwroot and copied the above perl file
conatining only 2 lines of code there but when I browse my perl file
from there ...it does not process it and just display the whole
contents of file ...whilw when I browse ASP file ..it works properly
.... Do I need to install somw component or do I need to make some
change in directory path ..How I can make IIS to process my perl files ...
Looking foeard to hear from you people ...
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Namon

Namon,
Writing perl code to display in a browser requires you to use CGI
routines. I suggest you get a book on Perl CGI or search the web
about it. CGI can be a little advanced for people that are new to
Perl. I would suggest you write a program that does what you want at
the command prompt, then add the code to make it a CGI so it will
display in the browser.
FYI...
