Daniel:
Thanks for your response. I am not sure the brand of web
server I am using. It is through www.best.com -- they write
it is "loosely based" on the NCSA server.
I've corrected the code as you suggested. The only other
significant occurrence of
$ENV{'SCRIPT_NAME'} was in the setup.cgi script. The code
reads as follows:
# Compute hnbinURL from current directory.
\$hnbinURL = "\$http\$ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}";
\$hnbinURL =~ s/[^\\\/]+\$//;
\$hnbinURL =~ s/\\\/\$//;
\$hnbinURL =~ s/\\\/SECURED\$//;
$hnbinFix
Unfortunately, I am not that familiar with Perl to decipher
this code and what it is intended to do. My fear is that the
the phrase "$ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}" is stored as part of the
\$hnbinURL variable then \$hnbinURL is EVALed at various
times throughout the program, coming up with different,
faulty values everywhere.
Hopefully, this is not the case. Could I simply replace this
block with a hard coded assignment?
(eg \$hnbinURL = "http://www.frontier-news.com/HyperNews/.scripts)
Thanks for any help,
Steven Peterson
