Subject: CSS via CGI dynamically called
the linked style sheet in an html object that is read and "displayed"
dynamically via a perl script is not being considered. its as if its not
there.
THE SCRIPT
#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI;
open (THENEWS, "news.htm");
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
while ($record = <THENEWS>) {
print $record;
}
close(THENEWS);
exit;
THE HTML = news.htm
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<title>Welcome to the News page:</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="program.css">
</head>
<body>
<h1>HI</h1>
</body>
</html>
Maybe this is because the cgi script is on server at different location then
css style. If this is the case you must rewrite URL in link during reading
html source. Example"
putout.cgi have URL http://www.mydomain.com/cgi-bin/putout.cgi
news.html have URL http://www.mydomain.com/news.html
In this case you must change
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="program.css">
to
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../program.css">
Another case may be if the physical directory on the server have not right
to read, only to executed. Example:
putout.cgi have URL http://www.mydomain.com/putout.cgi and path
/var/html/mydomain
news.html have URL http://www.mydomain.com/news.html and path
/var/html/mydomain
In this case you don't must change anything but directory
/var/html/mydomain must have right to read and execute too for Apache (or
other) webserver daemon or service.
What OS you arre using on server, Linux or Windows ? And what webserver
program?
