Runs .pl fine but won't run .sh

[grindel]

As the subject says - I can execute

http://myserver/cgi-bin/script.pl

just fine, but when I try to execute

http://myserver/cgi-bin/sript.sh

my browser just prompts me to either save or open the file. Browser issue? HTTPD issue? YOU be the judge
Cheers,
Rick

OK weird....
My script was running bash commands but was named script.sh
I renamed it to script.bash and BAM it worked as expected. Some kind of built-in Apache security? <shrug>

Not security but a MIME type problem.
