There really should be a CGI/webserver check-list on perlmonks

Maybe even like this one I posted to tutorials a couple of years ago? ;-)

    Maybe there also should be a short check list -- newbies tend to make the same simple mistakes all the time, and newbies do not tend to read anything more then 10 lines of text.

      and newbies do not tend to read anything more then 10 lines of text.

      and therein lies the root of the problem. If they bothered to RTFM (Any friendly manual) then....

      The Tutorials section is open for business so if you reckon you can cover newbie CGI problems in 10 lines or less go to it.
