[REBOL] Simple cgi problem

From: louisaturk:eudoramail at: 3-Jan-2002 11:26

[Well, I hope this gets through. This is the second send. Several other posts also didn't get through, but I can't reconstruct them now.] Tim, Mike, Andrew, and Rich, Sorry about the email. My computer accesses the internet via [cox--work]. They have been having some real problems, and that has affected me. I have Eudora set to send plain text only, but it doesn't seem to be obeying me. Anyway, I took Tim's advice and reduced the test script to 4 lines. The main problem turned out to be that the people hosting our web site, Active-Host.Com, did not have the server set up properly for rebol. I sent them instructions from page 12-49 of the rebol/core users guide, and they had success in about 5 minutes. They really worked hard to help me on this. However, when I tested with IE 6.0 I experienced failure: instead of print hello, IE tries to download the file. With Oprah and Navigator, however, success. Active-Host tested IE 6.0 with success. So there must be something wrong with my copy of IE. Any ideas what? Another point, it seems that on my ISP's W2K server, the first line of the script has to be formatted as Andrew said (note the space and backslashes): #! c:\rebol\rebol -cs Many thanks to you guys for guiding me to success.

Hi Louis: I've been following your thread and responding as best I can.... However, the last posting as quoted above was not readable by my Mail Agent. Not sure why, but if you set your mime type to text, I know for sure that I can read it :>)
