in reply to How do i enable my win98 system to run/test CGI scripts that i've written ?
- You need to have a webserver installed, such as e.g. Apache for windows or Xitami or MS Personal Webserver (is on your Win98 CD) or MS IIS,
- You need to have Perl installed, best for Windows is Active State's Active Perl,
- You must assign all files with endings *.pl and *.cgi to be passed to perl in the server config (see the docs)
- You need a webbrowser to call the server at your localhost with the URL of your script
- alternatively when using for example Ultraedit you can create a shortcut in the extras_menu with tools_configuration to execute the scripts by passing them to the shell and returning the output from the script in a Ultraedit Window, but read the docs for Ultraedit before, to make it corecctly
