in reply to script working locally, but not on server

As matija wrote, you didn't described your problem in a very good way.

Nevertheless one advise: 

<FORM NAME="info" action="../../../../cgi-bin/clotdecisions.cgi" metho
+d="POST">

[download]
Don't use relative paths with "../" in them as actions or URLs in anchors, use relative descending paths (like myaction) or better yet absolute paths.

Not Only do you enhance your security a wee bit, you also avoid possible confusion on how many levels upward you actualy have to go and where exactly on the file-system the location of the files is:)
