If you would rather have your python scripts ending in .py, you could change the cgi-hander to .py instead of .cgi

Thank you ! I forgot about that

I also have some more information you may want to add for your tutorial

First instead of python you can also use perl

 #!/usr/local/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html

Hello World! In Perl";

or ruby

 #!/usr/bin/ruby
print "Content-type: text/htmlnn";
print ?Ruby is working fine!";

just for confirmation, I equally had these issues, as i had a folder with my scripts in the root folder [/public_html/] and when i moved it to cgi-bin [resulting in /public_html/cgi-bin/] and set permissions of folder and files to 755 it worked straight away, but when moved back to root folder, it hasnt worked, so I'll try the .htaccess and see what happens

-on a side note: whats the deal with using passwords on websites as u say its not allowed, but what if registration is free?

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .py

that in .htaccess and the permissions of files to 755 solved it all

Thanks everyone,

Dear ALL,

As requested, I just posted the tutorial in the "Tutorials" thread of the forum (I just haven't figured out that there is one, sorry).

Hope this helps!
