Hi Di,
Yesterday i tried a "Hello world" program in perl using cgi script on a windows platform. The steps i followed were:
1. Made a directory in "C:" and named it "cgi-bin"
2. Wrote my source code file and saved it with "test.cgi"
############################################################ #################
Source code-
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type:text/html\r\n\r\n";
print '<html>';
print '<head>';
print '<title>Hello Word - First CGI Program</title>';
print '</head>';
print '<body>';
print '<h2>Hello Word! This is my first CGI program</h2>';
print '</body>';
print '</html>';
1;
############################################################ ##################
3. opened it with my web browser.
but now instead of giving the output it just shows the original source code.
please help!
regards
PS: software that I've installed on my pc is "Strawberry perl plus padre"
