Re: cgi script for changing error page

Hi,
Anyone with an Apple machine can use Stuffit Expander by Aladdin =
(freeware) to unzip zip files as well as the other Apple "zipped" files =
she is used to seeing.  I understand it comes bundled with IE 4.5, but =
she can download it free at: =
http://www.aladdinsys.com/expander/expander_mac.html  They have a (free) =
version for windows also.

Subject: cgi script for changing error page


I have a client who has been trying to change her 404 error page with a
cgi-script I found at http://cgi.resourceindex.com .  Today she sent me =

She's working on a Mac and I really don't know how to set up this script
either.  Can anyone help out?
TIA!
