The output is the HTML for your webpage and it proves that the script is executable by your userid and that the path to the perl interpreter is correct. It would seem reasonable to state that the problem is that the script is not executable by the web process. Ensure that the user your apache process runs as has execute and read rights to the script. The easiest way to do this is probably chmod 705 ice-cream.cgi Jason Clifford -- UKFSN.ORG Finance Free Software while you surf the 'net http://www.ukfsn.org/ Get the T-Shirt Now
