in reply to Script created html page won't run a perl script

Can't reproduce it with the links you gave, so I can only guess.

A common problem is to forget to assign the necessary file-rights to the user of the server-process or to adjust the lib paths.

You should definitely check your http-server's error logs.

If you are using CGI.pm you should consider printing errors temporarily to the page.

HTH!
