It appears that you don't care anymore, but that error means the script was
unable to create the temporary file it needs. The line:
if ( open (BODY,">$temp_file") ) {
says to open the file defined by $temp_file for writing. Since the if is
evaluating whatever is between the outside pair of () if this open returns
true it will continue to the next line:
if (-W $temp_file) {
which checks to see if the file is writable. If the open returns false, the
original if will skip to the end of the {} pair and continue execution.
else {
print "<h2>Error!</h2><P>Internal Error 200. Please send mail to the
webmaster!";
exit(0);
} # End ELSE
Since you get the error message, the open must have failed. NOW, why did it
fail? We have to look at how $temp_file is created to start.
Line 54 says:
$temp_file = $Temp . "\\su$random_number" . ".txt";
Just above that $random_number is created so now we have to look for $Temp.
Line 136 is part of the parse_form subroutine and says:
elsif ( $name eq "temp" ) { $Temp = $value; }
$Temp is a parameter passed from the form that calls this script and is set
to the value of the temp variable. If you look for a form field named temp
in the .html file you'll see that it's a hidden value that should be changed
when you set up the form on your server.
SO, why did it fail. Either this value was not set correctly (probably
because you have to write it like c:\\winnt\\temp instead of just
c:\winnt\temp) or the script is running as a user without permission to
write to the temp directory defined.

thanks Grant. I know that the perl error 200 is generated by the script
itself (not perl as a language)... It is in the source..... so I was hoping
to ask the author what he had coded this error in to mean. Thanks for the
help...

have not taken the time to get familiar with it. Might be something that
you could ask a Perl Guru about on another list, or maybe someone else on
this list can help you out.
