RE: M$ Word to HTML

2001-08-07 Thread Mark Saunders

Yeah, the dreamweaver 'Clean up Word HTML' is amazing.  
It does miss some tags, like class, so you have to take an extra step or
two to remove them.

If you have Dreamweaver you can use the 'Clean up Word HTML' option in
the
Modify menu on the toolbar.

 I have tried that, and Word generates HTML documents (XML
 actually) that have consistently had incorrect formatting.

 Word itself can generate HTML documents from Word documents.  Maybe
you
 can set up some OLE automation to perform this task (you can do OLE
 automation in Perl with ActiveState Perl).

RE: Linux Beginners Mailing List as good as this one

2001-07-26 Thread Mark Saunders

Topica.com has some nice ones if you search for linux (he basic linux
training list comes recommended)
A local linux user group list would be useful too.

linuxnewbie.org has some good people that hang around the message
forums.

Good luck.

RE: stupid question

Yes.  But you could also telnet or ssh (secure shell connection) into
the webserver if the host allows it, and execute scripts that way.  But
chances are you wouldn't do that.

Oh I see - that makes sense - and I would only be using the *nix shell
if i
was, say a unix administrator or was running linux here on my box at
home,
right?

It's not a stupid question.
The script is fine, and it would run in a *nix shell, but you're using
it on the web, so you have to add this line just below the shebang:
print Content-type:text/html\n\n;

Subject: stupid question

I know this is a simple, stupid question, but i can't seem to find the
answer. I've never used Perl before - only PHP. NOt very familiar with
unix
either...
I'm trying to get this hello world script to work - I have the shebang -
#!/usr/bin/perl at the beginning of the file, and verified with my host
that
it is the correct path. The host said to put the file in my cgi-bin,
which i
also did, and i chmoded it to 755, which was also a direction from my
host.
I tried naming it hworld.pl and hworld.cgi, but i still get this stupid
500
internal server error and can't figure out why.

The script is very simple:

#!/usr/bin/perl
print Hello World!\n;

Can someone please help this helpless newbie??

Thanks in advance!
Tom

RE: stupid question

2001-07-19 Thread Mark Saunders

Because the webserver software isn't configured to execute the .pl
extension.  It doesn't know what to do with it. 
Purists would say that the .pl extension represents a Perl Library, and
for clarity, methodology, and security sake should not be executed.

I was originally going to reply with the same thing, but I also got an
internal error 500 when I tried that. I think you also have to add:

use CGI;

.. Above that as well? That fixed the error for me.
