Home: Need a Custom or Prewritten Perl Program?: Throw Down The Gauntlet: Require small CGI/SSI script

gwmbox Deleted Apr 30, 2001, 2:24 AM Post #1 of 5 (7896 views) Require small CGI/SSI script Can't Post Hi I have a flatfile DB that stores data with the pipe delimiter. Within the file it stores a category field. What I want is a small script that will access the data file via an SSI call that will count up and display the number of records for each category. I would image the script would access the datafile and count the records for each category, but what I do not want it to do is alter the datafile in any way. If someone can do this please it would be much appreciated - I have very limited funds for this, free would be nice :-) Thanks Greg

Be sure to read the instructions in the program and change the extension to .cgi before you upload. Then upload the file in ASCII format and change its permissions to 755 (or whatever is suitable for your server).
