I'm trying to change the html on a form that at the moment is going to a ASP.net script. All I want to do is change the form to go to a perl/cgi script.

At the moment it's
<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
and I want to change it to
<form name="form1" method="post" action="login.cgi">

However, when I do this I get a site error

I have no idea how asp works as I am a perl person. Could someone explain how the server knows what to process when it's just directed at the server?

Thanks
 
Thanks for that, but I don't want to run perl on this machine.

The perl script is on a different machine running unix.

What I want is to have the perl script on the othre server take the information on the form.

Sorry, should of been more clear.
 
You'll have to search the internet then. This seems more like a Perl question than .NET.
