I originally posted this on the installation directory but this directory seems busier. I apologize for the double post but I am 'motivated' to finish this asap and am hoping I can get my answers before the weekend.

Hi. I am currently trying desperately to fix the final few details to get this link page up an running. I don't know Perl so if you would take that into account in your answer I would appreciate it.
The page is currently at http://www.vbexplorer.com/links/
The | What's New | What's Cool | Top Rated | links do not seem to be using the templates I created. I modified all the templates and they all seem to be used except for these three. I saw the other post on links.cfg but it wasn't answered. Here are the current settings
# Paths and URL's to Important Stuff
# --------------------------------------------------------
# PATH and URL of Admin CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_script_path = "F:/users/vbexplor/www/htdocs/links/cgi-bin/admin";
$db_dir_url = "http://www.vbexplorer.com/links/cgi-bin/admin";
# URL of User CGI directory. No Trailing Slash.
$db_cgi_url = "http://www.vbexplorer.com/links/cgi-bin";
# PATH and URL of Pages to be built. No Trailing Slash.
$build_root_path = "F:/users/vbexplor/www/htdocs/links";
$build_root_url = "http://www.vbexplorer.com/links";
# PATH and URL of What's New page. No Trailing slash.
$build_new_path = "$build_root_path/New";
$build_new_url = "$build_root_url/New";
# PATH and URL of What's Cool page. No Trailing slash.
$build_cool_path = "$build_root_path/Cool";
$build_cool_url = "$build_root_url/Cool";
# PATH and URL of What's Rating page. No Trailing slash.
$build_ratings_path = "$build_root_path/Ratings";
$build_ratings_url = "$build_root_url/Ratings";
The other question is that I deleted the test links in the database using the admin interface yet if I go to 'What's New' they are still listed. Not sure if there is something else I need to do to kill them just wanted to be sure that I wasn't going to end up with a lot of 'phantom' links dragging down the database.
