Hi,
Did you try using the File/Associate... menu item in File Manager to
associate "*.pl" files with perl?
You can tell that the ".pl" extension is associated by double-clicking on
your script in the File Manager. It should run, if it's associated
correctly.

Well,
I am reading the "Introduction to CGI/PERL," and I am trying out a sample
perl file illustrated in the book:
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "<html>\n;
print "<head>\n;
print "<title>Hello world with Perl</title>\n;
print "</head>\n";
print "<body>\n";
print "<h1>Hello world with Perl</h1>\n";
Print "<P>Howdy, Worl!</p>\n";
print "</body>\n";
print "</html>\n";
I left out "#!/usr/local/bin/perl" from the original file because I didn't
think it apply in my case. Besides, when I installed Perl 5, I said yes to
modifying the paths information.
Although it says to keep all the scripts files in "c:\inetsrv\scripts"
directory, I named it "test.html" and kept it in "C:\inetsrv\wwwroot". I
figured that, if I named it with .pl extension and keep it in the \scripts
directory, I would have to create another html file in the \wwwroot
directory to reference the .pl file in the \scripts. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO
THAT.
So when I "browse" this test.html file it display exactcally what is in the
file with all the "print" and "\n". When I rename the file with a .pl and
kept it in the \wwwroot directory, and browse it, it wants me to save the
file.
Following Richard's suggestion I tried adding .pl support to "Register File
Type" using Regedit (using *.pl for identifier, and command is perl %1).This
didn't help me.
Thanks
Sam
