Warning to Mac users. Never use any web
design program to open, move, edit or upload a CGI script! Only PC users can do
this. Because your Mac will find a way to add Mac line breaks at the end of each
line of code to make the program totally useless. This is why programmers almost
always us PC or Unix computers.
| 1.
|
Always upload and download scripts
using a FTP Client (like Fetch)
ALWAYS SET THE FTP UPLOAD FORMAT TO TEXT WHEN UPLOADING SCRIPTS!!! |
| 2.
|
To edit the script use BBEdit
Lit (shareware – get it online) |
| 3.
|
Be sure to “Save As >
Set Options > Line Breaks > to DOS” IF YOUR LINE BREAKS ARE NOT SET
TO DOS THE SCRIPT WILL NEVER WORK. |
Note: You can't see the line breaks, so you'll waste hours chasing your
tale. |
