CGI Programming and Perl
Overview
What are CGI Scripts?
If you are completely new to the world of
CGI programming, it would be a good idea to take a look at this page and
get a feel for what it is that they do.
Where Should I Put CGI Scripts?
So you have some CGI scripts that you would
like to use but don't know where to put them? No problem, just
take a look at this page.
Changing File Permissions & Upload in ASCII
In order to execute many CGI scripts, you
need to change their file permissions. Take a look at this page
for instructions. |
Feedback Forms and Similar Forms
FormMail
FormMail is a program to allow users to email
you the contents of text fields of a form. This program is
extremely useful for contact pages.
FishForm
FishForm is similar to FormMail except that it
sends an encrypted message. FishForm should be used for all secure
server transactions instead of FormMail.

HTML Page Counters
|
index.cgi
This is the counter which can be automatically setup using your Control Panel.
This counter displays the number of hits as regular
text, so it blends into the page more.
nph-count
Another way to track the number of visitors to
your site. This is a simple hit counter which will display the
number of visitors that have accessed a particular page. This is
the fastest way to implement a counter and can be used for any web page, not just your index.html
|
CGIWrap
CGIWrap is a program that allows scripts to be run
by the Web Server so that it has the permissions of the owner of the
script. If you are using a bulletin board or guestbook, it may be a good
idea to use CGIWrap.
