Thanx for the nice scripts from this site. The problem is that I'm using these scripts for the first time and still unable to get successfull . My site is hosted at tripod.com and it provides cgibin directory by default. Can Any body tell me how to use this command (#!/usr/bin/perl). Please help me and mail me at f22web@yahoo.com

ys the rule #!/usr/bin/per is the path to the perl interpreter on (in this case) tripod server you need to change it if it is necessary also if tripod uses unix(or a clone linux etc) you gotta set the right permissions for the scripts

chmod 755 filename.cgi (executable)

etc ..........

#!/../perl

or
!/../perl
or
/../perl

open a new shell and type
> whereis perl

usually PERL is installed in /usr/local/bin/perl or /usr/bin/perl
