    I think what you mean is that you want to make these scripts run on a web server and display their results on a web page. By the sounds of it you don't have a clear understanding of what server side scripting is, and what HTML is. There is a bit of a learning curve, I think the best place for you to start would be with Ovid's CGI Course (see also the Web Programming section of tutorials). Once you have specific questions please let us know what you need help with.

      Thanks for the advice. will do that

        Hi Sorry for being a bother. I read the information you suggested but having difficulty it starting off. As I mentioned earlier the perl script is to be on the server side and when client accesses a file to download it trigers the script to measure the download time, stores the data and also displays on the web page at the client end. Very much appreciated if you could provide any suggestion to help me start. Thank you once again.
