Seems there have been a few posts up tonight about help of programming or webdesign I thought I would add one of my own!
Trying to set-up a shopping cart on my site, seem to have installed it all correct but cant get it to work right!
Anyone want to offer some help if you know anything about webdesign or perl?!
cheers

I'll have a bash but I'm no expert on Perl.
Lets see some details then...

I'd give up on Perl if I was you - it's a dying language, Perl and all that PHP crap.

Right, I have managed to install the cart into my cgi-bin and have changed the permissions and code where it needs to be changed. I've also managed to create the mySQL database and tables needed for it to work!
But when I try to call up http://www.samuraituning.com/cgi-bin/store/admin/index.html it doesnt work.
I think it may be because I can't open html pages from my cgi-bin, but not sure, what you think?

until I can afford to get the site done by a proper web designer and get the cart custom written I'll have to settle for perl!

Surely you should be linking to a perl script from your cgi-bin?
http://www.blah_blah.com/wibble/fnarg.pl or fnarg.cgi perhaps?

Thats 'cos I just moved the index.html outside the cgi-bin and forgot to change the redirect to point to index.cgi inside the cgi-bin!

OK, tried sorting the redirect out so that it will open up index.cgi that is in the cgi-bin, I've modified the code that was alreadt there to this...
<script language="javascript1.1">
<!-- Hide
location.replace ('http://www.samuraituning.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi');
// end hide -->
</script>
but it still says http 404 etc....
ahhhhhhhhh!

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function redirect()
{
window.location = "http://www.samuraituning.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi"
}
setTimeout("redirect();", 5000)
-->
Try that
