download window instead of executing

2007-06-25 Thread Dan Jablonsky
hi all,
just a quick questions: why do I get a download window
when I'm trying to execute a .pl file in the browser?
It's something very simple but I forgot how one fixes
this.

I'll get back with details if necessary,
kowalsky

I'm sure others have a more elegant way of doing it, but make this the
first thing you print to stdout:

print Content-Type: text/html\n\n;
print \n;

Hi. What do u mean by execute in the browser?  That doesn't make sense.  Are
u trying to run the script as a CGI and have it print its output to the
browser? If so then u don't have the script in the web server's CGI
directory.  If u want to have the script execute anywhere, not just in the
CGI dir, u have to enable script aliasing in the webserver's configuration
so that it will recognize .pl as an executable extension.
