I have 3 questions.

1) I'm having trouble coming up under perlrun. I'm on a Windows XP Home platform running Apache/2.0.49 (Win32) PHP/5.1.4 mod_perl/2.0.2 Perl/v5.8.3.

The entry page comes up fine. The first link I try (any link) works fine. All links after the first fail. I have confirmed that no parameters get passed to these programs that fail. I'm getting no errors in the Apache log except 1 indicating no data came through to the failing program. I have to stop and restart Apache to make any other link to work. And again, all subsequent links fail. Following are 2 links I just tested. Is it invalid to pass parameters this way under Perl Run?
<A CLASS='l2' HREF='ss.cgi?ssstr=$govlevel' ONMOUSEOVER=\"window.statu
+s='Sights And Sounds Of $glines[0]';return true\" ONMOUSEOUT=\"window
+.status='  ';return true\">Sights/Sounds</A>

<A CLASS='l2' HREF='vumenu.cgi?vmstr=$govlevel~$vufiles' ONMOUSEOVER=\
+"window.status='Special Interest, Measure Views';return true\" ONMOUS
+EOUT=\"window.status='  ';return true\">Special Views</A>

All function works correctly under cgi-bin. All subroutines are stand-alone objects. My Apache httpd entry for perl-run follows. 

PerlModule ModPerl::PerlRun
  Alias /perl-run/ "/usr/www/steepusa/cgi-bin/"
  <Location /perl-run>
      PerlSetVar PerlRunOnce On
      SetHandler perl-script
      PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::PerlRun
      PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
      Options +ExecCGI
  </Location>

I'm not sure what to do next. I'm sort of in the in between programs place.

2) I have not been able to load .JScript files from any location into my Perl scripts in the cgi-bin directory. I can in my root. Does this require an httpd adjustment?

3) I am have trouble opening .tar.gz files. I've never been able to open one. The name gets changed on the download and I can't seem to find the right name. I use WinZip which is supposed to be able to read these files.

Thanks.
