using WSFTP for upload. Uploading .pl files using ASCII ONLY. I am trying to run Matt's script FormMail on Secure Socket Layer of windows 2000 server.
the directions for upload that I got from my hosting company say I must put my FormMail.pl in my secure file that they have provided on my root directory and call the script using the following:
you MUST use the
following URL as the ACTION of your form:
https://[secureserver].com/cgi-yourdomain/FormMail.pl
the correct path would then be:
when I put this path in the Action of my form as below
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="
I get page cannot be displayed.
My question is #1 Is it possible to set up CGI Scripts on a Windows 2000 server?? If so what do I have to find out from my hosting company to be able to do it?
Does that server has the same kind of sendmail address and does it have to be changed in the script.
I understand what needs to be done on UNIX but am very confused about Windows 2000.
Maybe there is a better way to do what I am trying to do.
The users will be submitting financial information that will need to be encrypted and protected to be able to reach the e-mail destination.
I would appreciate any information you can share with me. I have been working on this for 3 days steady and am completely exasperated. Very little help available through my hosting provider. They don't seem to be able to answer the questions very well.
