Hi, I am also new to the list, and just returned from some Perl training. I
had hopes of getting my PWS up and running to do some work, and it is two
days of frustration. I have D/L'd Active Perl, and have PWS installed. I
have changed my registry settings as prescribed for the .pl extension.
When I double click on the xyz.pl in Win Explorer, I can see the DOS window
open and a brief view of the pgm running correctly. BUT, I have not gotten
the execution to work via the PWS, that is, I can not get it to create a
'real' functioning web page.
any suggestions
