  Subject: Stupid # in script question

Im new to scripts and the path on my hosting server says this "Path to PERL /usr/bin/perl
Path to sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail"

But in the bizmail.cgi file it says to use #!/usr/bin/perl. what are the # and ! signs? do i take them out or leave them in? Sorry for the stupid question but this is confusing to me.

Thanks

Scaggs

As far as I know you can leave them in.

Yes, you do leave them in. The pound sign in perl means you are commenting code out. IF the pound sign and then !
eg. #!
apear on the first line, that tells perl that the path to perl will follow.
