I am not running any web server program. I was trying to just run the scripts on the
machine I was using. Should I have a web server program?

What web server program are you using?

Subject: Running CGI's locally
I am trying to create a simple form in HTML for tech support requests for
the county I work for. I just started even looking at Perl a few days ago,
so a lot of this is confusing. In HTML, I have problems sending forms
because my office uses Groupwise, which is not receiving data from the
mailto action. I thought CGI's would be more efficient and more versatile,
so I started reading up on them. I found some public domain Perl files to
try, but whenever I try to load them in my browsers (IE5.5 and Netscape4.7)
the browser will not execute the script, and instead tries to download it as
file or display the script as plain text. I am running NT4.0.
