On the server side, I remember it being challenging trying to figure out how to run CGI's ... usually in Perl ... on a given site. Some sites had Perl 4, some had Perl 5. Your code might have needed either the .pl or .cgi file extension. Sometimes the CGI script just needed to be in the /cgi-bin/ directory with execute permissions set and the appropriate hashbang in the top comment. While there were more elaborate Perl CGI libraries, I preferred to use cgi-lib.pl. |
