<!--#exec cgi="http://www.oursite.org/cgi-bin/ptslog.cgi"-->

I'm attempting to use a Perl CGI script to track visitors to an affiliate organization's website.

When a user visits there, I want it to call the script on our server.

everything works fine when I'm testing it here, using [<!--#exec cgi=&quot;/cgi-bin/ptslog.cgi&quot;-->]

At the other site, I tried [<!--#exec cgi=&quot;

http://www.oursite.org/cgi-bin/ptslog.cgi&quot;-->

], but it didn't work. I didn't even get an error message on our server logs.

What's the proper syntax for that command?

Is there something else that I'm missing?

what webserver is the machine running?

Hi mate,

You cannot run an SSI command on another server. This is for security reasons.

Hope this helps Wullie

That's what I was afraid of.

It's probably for the best; the last thing I want to do is risk screwing stuff up.

The more I do this stuff, the more I like to keep things fast, simple, and safe...

Thanks!
