Hi, you wrote:- >Do you have any other cgi scripts installed there? > >Who is your host? Is this a free host? Unix or NT? > >How did you change permissions (if your're on NT, you probably cannot simply do >it with FTP) My server is Unix and I changed permissions via WS_FTP which seemed to work. I have about four other .pl files in the cgi-bin:- search.pl form-mail.pl form-mail2.pl form-mail3.pl form-mail4.pl These are all the root of the cgi-bin however. I wish it was 'free' I pay around 50 GB Pounds sterling per month, that is because of high bandwidth useage (Commercial server.) Hope this might just help:)) Graham. -- Graham Leatherbarrow.
