cgi Error

[leversole]

wondering if someone wants to take a look at a guestbook cgi that I am trying to use. I must be doing something wrong as I cannot get any cgi to work?!? the latest error is (from the error logs) "premature end of script header" What shoudl I look for? Is notepad putting some illegal character somewhere? Thanks in advance. The url is www.eversolenet.com/guestbook/guestbook.cgi. I have the chmod settings to 777, I uploaded in ascii mode...I dont know what else to do.

Thanks
Leslie

figured it out! (I think) Notepad does something funny with the newline/carriage return?!? I got a cgi editor, uploaded, and now everything works as it should! Is this common knowlege and I'm just out of the loop?
