You wanted to be able to use relative directories, relative to
the one that the script is executing from.

If the directory is a "real directory" and only marked like
executable and scripts, the "current" directory does indeed
change based on version of IIS 4.0 and perl.  But the current
directory was never where the script was executing from.

I found for IIS if you make the script directory a "virtual directory"
it will always find it's require files, and you can do relative
directory paths to find other files, like ../cgi-bin_test/test.pl

It is not necessary to make the directory virtual for Unix servers
(like Netscape or Apache).  Only IIS 4.0 on NT.

I created this page to help people with exactly this problem:

Hope this helps
