I have checked my books, checked permissions, and am
still having trouble.

Here is my code in a file named hello.pl. I have a
link to this file off my web page to test it. 
(Maybe this part is now right?...)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 
#!/usr/bin/perl 

# hello.pl  

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print <<END_OF_FILE;
<HTML>
<HEAD>
   <TITLE>Hello</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
   <p>Hello, world!</p>
</BODY>
</HTML>

END_OF_FILE

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
When I have this file in the CGI-BIN directory, 
I get an internal server error. So I put it in
with my HTML files, and this is now what I get 
in the browser.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
#!/usr/bin/perl # hello.pl print "Content-type:
text/html\n\n"; print < 
Hello, world!

END_OF_FILE

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I started with the permissions of both the CGI-Bin
directory and the file at 755, then changed to 777. 
No luck.

I have tried with both a .pl and .cgi extension.

There is another .pl file in the CGI-BIN directory
that works fine.  It is executed on clicking a submit
button.

The first line of this file matches the first line of
the file that works.
