through the process.
16. My cgi's do not work? Check the permissions on the script (If you are
not sure what this means, do some reading on running cgi's online. Also,
make sure you have an .htaccess file in your main dir. Just create a flat
text file that includes the following lines:
AddType text/html .shtml .htm
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml .htm
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
Options +ExecCGI
and the cgi should work fine
