Is there any way I can create a shell script or a CGI script to parse a directory and append the proper HTML tags so that I can get a point and click directory listing on a web page?

And ultimately, is there a way I can use CGI (or something else) to launch a script or a program on the server from a web page?

Sorry if this is ambiguous, please post if it is, I will try my best to clarify.

Thank you.

Tim

Looking through those scripts, I'm sure I could find one that will help me out...

Question now is...how do I add them to my web page? I created a .pl file and stuck it in my cgi-bin directory...was this wrong?

My page keeps coming back with internal server errors...

Thanks,

Tim

You don't. Pages should be generated from the script (dynamic pages).

No. You can place it anywhere you like.

Just saying 500 error tells nothing, you need to give more details.
