==How do I enable execute permission for Perl scripts?==
Windows servers:
Our Windows servers, no extra steps are needed to set permissions to run your Perl scripts.

Linux servers:
Using your FTP program like CuteFTP or Ws_ftp, CHMOD the files to have 755 permissions. This will give the script execute permissions.

NOTE: All Perl (.cgi and .pl) files MUST be uploaded in ASCII (text) format, NOT binary.

==In my HTM (HTML) page, how do I reference my PERL scripts?==
You should place your Perl CGI scripts in your cgi-bin
directory. Then in your HTM (HTML) page you would have
a line something like this...

<FORM Method=POST Action="cgi-bin/yourscript.cgi">

==What is the path to PERL pl .pl cgi .cgi?==
Windows servers:
On our Windows servers, Perl is associated via
the .pl or .cgi extension. The exact path to Perl doesn't
really matter. However, you still need something like
#!d:/perl/bin/perl.exe
as the very first line of your script.

Linux servers:
#!/usr/bin/perl

==What is ActivePerl?==
ActivePerl is the Windows version of Perl. ActivePerl works just like Perl, except it's been ported to Windows servers.
