Re: [LI] Perl & Browser Config

[Suresh Ramasubramanian <r.suresh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pinku - it is just like setting up PERL on any webserver.  If you have a
working cgi-bin directory, with readymade perl scripts (like from Matt's
and Selena Sol's sites) all you have to do is to make certain
modifications (like the location of PERL and sendmail on your server -
"which perl" and "which sendmail" respectively)

Then set chmod 755 scriptname.pl (and set the @referer array in the script
if it exists - for all domains - and ip numbers - allowed to access the
script).  RTFM the howtos given with each script and the job is easy.

Then fire up your browser and call the script -
http://www.foo.com/cgi-bin/bar.pl or maybe from a html form using the
syntax <form method=post action=http://www.foo.com/cgi-bin/bar.pl>

Read some good books on PERL for more.
