Hi all,

   I have perl cgi installed successfully on my windows machine.  I would
like to write a perl cgi program and display it in the browser on my own
Windows XP machine.  To this end, I followed instructions in L. Stein's
book and created a registry ScriptMap called .pl of type REG_SZ with value
'C:\perl\bin\perl.exe %s %s'.  The value is the correct one for my system.

However, when I open a .pl cgi file  (known to work, because I can open it
OK with the DZSoft editor) in the browser, the perl interpreter is not
called and all I get is the text file displayed in the browser window.

   Is it possible to view the file in a browser on my system?  Or must I
have a web page on the server across campus and ftp the files there every
time I want to do something?

Thanks

Mary
