Or
you can just redirect the user to the .pl page from homepage. ------------------ SR - shiju.dreamcenter.net "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge..."

You can also use SSI, check with your host to see if it is available. If so, then most likely you will need to rename your index page to index.shtml or home.shtml or whatever the default document is.
Where you want the Perl program to display in your page, insert the following: <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana,Arial,Helvetica">code:</font><HR><pre><!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/script.pl"-->[/code] Where /cgi-bin/script.pl is the virtual path to your perl program. Virtual paths are relative to the base url, so if your program is located at http://mydomain.com/cgi-bin/myscripts/script.pl, then the virtual path will be /cgi-bin/myscripts/script.pl Hope this is of some use to you.

Yes only if index.pl is included in your httpd.conf as: DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.pl Or If you are allowed to use .htaccess, you can simply upload an .htaccess to that directory with the following one line: DirectoryIndex index.pl In fact, it doesn't has to be named 'index.pl', it could even be anything.pl as long as you specify anything.pl in your .htaccess like above.
