form to email problem

Q:
Hi Peter

I think I've installed the BFormmail correctly but get an error. Could
you please check out my form and the error page. I've uploaded the script
in ASCII and changed the script too #!/.../perl -- but no luck.

Any help would be great
Thanks
Ross
A:
yes, but where is the script?

Q:
Hi

When I log in to the FTP there are 4 initial folders: certs, logs, users,
web.

The web folder contains all my html files and here I've made a folder:
cgi-bin and this is where the script is.

Regards

A:
This usually does not work. On most servers HTML pages and Perl scripts
cannot be mixed. It is a matter of web server configuration. If this
server is managed by you then please consult the web server manual.

If the server is managed by someone else then ask the system manager where
to put CGI scripts. It may actually happen that they do not allow you to
run cgi scripts at all.

Regards,
Peter
