No CGI-Bin? - need feedback form

No CGI-Bin? - need feedback form
I have used a perl cgi-script for a simple feedback form on a clients website. However their webmaster doesn't have a cgi-bin and has redirected it somewhere else. The feedback form comes up with the error....
CGI ERROR
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:
.....
(and that was it?)

does anyone know what this means, and is there a simple feedback form i can use otherwise in another scripting language that will work on their server??

thanks for any feedback

Tim

Yes there is another scripting language that you can use. That language is Java. I have seen many other sites using java form for feedback. Go to

http://www.javascripts.com/scripts.categories.cfm?Category=Forms

and

http://www.jc2k.com/script_main.html

You should go to the first address and scroll down until you see "The ultimate mailto: form."
I think that one will work for you.

Good suggestion...

However, what you can do is use the Absolute path to the cgi-lib.pl file or another library file that will help you.

Just a thought...
