All, 

Or maybe David, 

I appologize in advance for my lack of sight and/or insight...

I read those docs.  How can I utilize those functions on the web?  I am sorry I must 
be really dense when it comes to this stuff...  I have had the hardest time getting 
this to work.  I can run my script from a command prompt great.  I guess I need to 
understand how CGI and perl work together etc.  Here is the an HTML page that is 
suppose to call the script but it still isn't working.

<HTML>
<HEAD>
 <TITLE>Upload/Parse Data</TITLE>
</HEAD>

<BODY>
 
 <!--#exec cgi="/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/pw.pl"-->
 <BR><B>Upload Successful!</B>
 <BR>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Brady

sorry for not begin clear on this! on the machine where you have Perl 
install, type those in the command line:

perldoc -f system
perldoc -f exec
perldoc -f fork

if you are running a [U|Li]nux machine and you logon as root, you probably 
have to change to another user before running those command.
