TEMPLATES
HELP! I'm sorry, I don't know if this is even the correct forum to ask this, however, I need to update a background for some links pages and I'm lost. I tried to change one (search.html) - hit save template and received a CGI error saying that access was denied or something to that affect. Can someone PLEASE direct me on how to do this - I am trying to get a site updated.

Thank you.

Hi,

sounds if you are using the admin.cgi to load and save the templates. If you use this utility you must write-enable the templates in your /admin/template directory. Use the chmod command via telnet or ftp.

You need to chmod 777 the "templates" directory as well as the templates in the directory.

From inside the "admin" directory you can type:

chmod -R 777 templates


from a telnet prompt.

You can also use WS-FTP or one of the other FTP programs to do it.
