405 error
Hey,
I am messing around with some perl and wrote a very simple script to take the contents of a textbox and print it in a document. Ive done it before so was ecpecting no problems but i keep getting a strange error. It says that the method post is not alowd or something like that. I tried using Get but that didnt work either
I have a html page and the actual .pl script with the action in the html page form being the address of the script.
Can anyone tell me why i ma getting this error and how to stop it?
cheers

This is spooky
This error usually occures when some configuration problem in MIME occurs.
Things to do:
* Check the configuration of server if you are using personal web server.
* Check URLs
* Check directory rights.
* Does you server support .pl or plain .cgi?
Apart from this I think the script should be needed to debug.
Dunno much about these. But try it

Just a quick suggestion, make sure that
(1) you have defined a form with a method and an action attribute defined in the form tag.
(2) you have closed off the form ()
(3) That the url in the action tag is valid.

Hi, I go it working. My code was messed up - I must have been half asleep when I wrote it. The problems were with the url not being correct and for some reaon I had to method="" tags in the form which obvioulsy confused it:0
Thanks for your help:)
