has anyone got any idea how to upload perl using dreamweaver so it works? I am updating a perl script to send form info to a different email address, which even though I don't know the language was easy enough to find and change, but now it doesn't work. What is the difference between binary upload and ascii upload? please help someone I am going on holiday tomorrow and need to finish it!!
Perl scripts should never be uploaded as binary, they are simple ASCII text files.
That being said, exactly what is the error you are getting on the remote server?
It could very well be that you are hosting on a unix machine and the script needs to know where to find the outbound server or smtp daemon
YOu should be able to upload it like any other file with Dreamweaver, however once it is uploaded, you may have to modify the permissions to make it function
eg) chmod 755/777
