too bad, i missed all the fun
but may i add in telnet, you use this command:
chmod 755 filename.pl

nice day!

are you using ftp or a control panel? if control panel it should have something that says chmod and then you just chmod. if ftp the easiest way is to click on the file and chmod it once it's on your server.

good luck

That was kinda long, wasn't it? My directory is set correctly, but uhh.. sorry to ask such a newbie question, but how do I chmod?

ok here are some of the main things that always makes scripts go to poo. first line of your cgi files must point to perl on your server. second the proper chmod 755 for cgi files and then whatever the readme says for other, try 777 to just make sure you can get the script working. third a path isn't a url. fourth diretories that script work out on or onto may need to be chmod'ed properly. hope this helps, if not please ask a shorter question, my attention span is finite, hehe.

good luck
