Hi,<br><br>I have a news applet that runs on cleartext, so I wanted to write a quick script that would allow us to post news over the web.&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm new to perl - that's probably why this isn't working.&nbsp;&nbsp;I open an input file, and basically put its contents into a big text box in a html form.. then when the person hits submit, it's suppossed to re-write the changes to the file.&nbsp;&nbsp;I think my ISP uses IIS/Win NT.. the script runs on their server without errors - just doesn't write to the file.&nbsp;&nbsp;Now, when I run it on a local unix box, it works fine.&nbsp;&nbsp;Any ideas?&nbsp;&nbsp;Here's the text version of the script...<br><br><A HREF=" TARGET="_new"> Please reply by email if possible.<br><br>Joe Gadell<br><A HREF="mailto:gadellj@stlnet.com">gadellj@stlnet.com</A>
