Perl Interpreter

Hi All,

I am thinking of getting server space on a server that does not support Perl/CGI. If I installed the Perl Interpreter in my server space, would I be able to successfully run CGI scripts made with Perl 5??? Thanks,

How would you go about installing it? Do they give you telnet access?

If the host doesn't have CGI support in the first place they are very unlikely to give you permission to install the Perl package.

So easy to use, no wonder it's number one!!!
