Steve,
Thanks for the reply. Instead of links I will post the code as it is very short.
This is what the browser displays all on one line exactly as shown:
Content-type: text/html Hello, world!
Here is the index.html file:
<html> <HEAD><TITLE>Tech</TITLE> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body> <p><!--#exec cmd="perl ./cgi-bin/hello.cgi"--></p> </body> </html>
Here is the hello.cgi file:
#!/bin/perl print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; print "Hello, world!\n";
Here are the lines from the access log:
220.241.99.252 - - [29/Sep/2008:23:22:22 +0800] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 189 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052912 Firefox/3.0"
The error log has no lines for this access.
