Got it totally working. Thanks...

fyi.. you should also add it to priv_sendprivmsg template as well for the PM's.

diettalk:

Glad to hear that you have it working. I added it to my priv_sendprivmsg template already but forgot to add it to the list of templates to modify.

Thanks for reminding me. I will update the .zip file.

Actually, it doesn't have to. My spell.pl file is in /forum and it works fine. Just chmod'd the directory to 777 and changed the path (/forum/spell.pl).

I know some servers only let you run PERL files out of the cgi-bin. Chmod 777 can also be bad news for PERL files depending on the server setup. I have the spell.pl file in the cgi-bin and the directory and file are chmodded to 755. Of course, all of this is one of the reasons I much prefer PHP to PERL. :)

Fortunately, this very cool hack works fine. :cool:

That's what I was thinking earlier.

:laugh:

Yeah the server has to be set up to allow PERL files in directories other than a cgi-bin directory or similar. I will try changing my spell.pl to 755.

I prefer PHP over PERL myself I just wish I knew how to convert from one to the other.

Ok. Perl to PHP. Who's a doin it?

Perl / Php conversion

Hooper:

Unless someone has written a program that will convert one into the other for you I won't be doing it. I am lucky if I get have the stuff that I write to work as it is.
