There are several reasons why your CGI script is not working: -You have uploaded your CGI script in BINARY mode. -Please use ASCII mode when uploading your CGI scripts. -Your file permisions on your script have not been set. You must change the file permissions on any CGI programs to be world-readable and world-executable. Your FTP client most likely has an option to change the file permissions (or CHMOD). Just set the permissions on that file to 755, or Owner Read & Execute, Group Read & Execute, and World Read & Execute.
