You need a Perl interpreter. Most versions of Unix and Linux come with Perl. You can get a download a free Perl interpreter for a Windows computer from Active State: http://www.activestate.com/Products/acti...








If you want to run the script over the Web, you need a web server that supports Perl (most do). Installing scripts on your web site will vary depending on your ISP and the operating system they use. On a typical Linux/Apache server you need the path to the interpreter in the first line, preceded by #!, then put the script in the appropriate directory and make it executable.
Reply:Okay you have a perl script I assume that the script is capable of running (no errors) path to perl defined. If this script has been run before I would assume yes!





The easiest way to run it would be place this script on a computer running linux. At a bash prompt chmod of the script using chmod 777 nameofscript . Then just type ./nameofscript When I say type nameofscript this is the name of the script you are trying to run.





The bash prompt is similar to a DOS prompt. I hope this helps!
